A hypomycete fungus with colorless clavate conidia was isolated from soybean roots. Seven rhizosphere bacteria andAzotobacter from an alternate source induced ascocarps in culture plates. Some bacteria retarded mycelial growth rate and some promoted conidiation. The anamorph and teliomorph resembleDactylella rhopalota Drechsler andOrbilia sp. respectively.

A review on the research of nematophagous fungal species

This review presents progress made in the field of fungal antagonists of parasitic nematodes, including trapping fungi, endoparasitic fungi, toxin-producing fungi and opportunistic fungi.

Effects of carbon and nitrogen sources on sexual reproduction of five strains from the ascomyceteOrbilia

This study examined the effects of carbon and nitrogen sources as well as the ratio of carbon to nitrogen on apothecia formation of five anamorphic strains from the genus Orbilia and found little effect of variable carbon-nitrogen ratio on aphecia formation.

Taxonomy of Dactylella complex and Vermispora. II. The genus Dactylella

The anamorph genus Dactylella is extremely heterogenous, comprising members of saprotrophic, oospore or nematode-egg parasites. In view of the vast biological differences, a subdivision into more…

Orbilia laevimarginata sp. nov. and its asexual morph

By combining morphological and phylogenetic analysis, it is concluded that the three isolates of O. laevimarginata belong to a single undescribed holomorph species.
