  • Black root rot : a long known but little understood disease 
    Nel, Wilma Janine; Duong, Tuan A.; De Beer, Z. Wilhelm; Wingfield, Michael J. (Wiley, 2019-06)
    Black root rot caused by the pathogen Thielaviopsis basicola has been known since the mid 1800s. The disease is important on many agricultural and ornamental plant species and has been found in at least 31 countries. Since ...

    An order, family and genus are validated, seven new genera, 35 new species, two new combinations, two epitypes, two lectotypes, and 17 interesting new host and / or geographical records are introduced in this study. Validated ...
  • A new species of Raffaelea from beetle-infested Leucaena leucocephala 
    Procter, M.; Nel, Wilma Janine; Marincowitz, Seonju; Crous, Pedro W.; Wingfield, Michael J. (Westerdijk Fungal Biodiversity Institute, 2020)
    Species of Raffaelea (Ophiostomatales: Ascomycota) are obligate symbionts of ambrosia beetles, some of which pose a substantial threat to forest trees. Leucaena leucocephala is a small mimosoid tree species that is ...
  • Ophiostomatalean fungi associated with wood boring beetles in South Africa including two new species 
    Nel, Wilma Janine; Wingfield, Michael J.; De Beer, Z. Wilhelm; Duong, Tuan A. (Springer, 2021-06)
    Ambrosia beetles are small wood inhabiting members of the Curculionidae that have evolved obligate symbioses with fungi. The fungal symbionts concentrate nutrients from within infested trees into a usable form for their ...
  • Phylogenetic and phylogenomic analyses reveal two new genera and three new species of ophiostomatalean fungi from termite fungus combs 
    Nel, Wilma Janine; De Beer, Z. Wilhelm; Wingfield, Michael J.; Poulsen, Michael; Aanen, Duur K.; Wingfield, Brenda D.; Duong, Tuan A. (Taylor and Francis, 2021)
    The Ophiostomatales (Ascomycota) accommodates more than 300 species characterized by similar morphological adaptations to arthropod dispersal. Most species in this order are wood-inhabiting fungi associated with bark or ...
  • The polyphagous shot hole borer (PSHB) and its fungal symbiont Fusarium euwallaceae: a new invasion in South Africa 
    Paap, Trudy; De Beer, Z. Wilhelm; Migliorini, Duccio; Nel, Wilma Janine; Wingfield, Michael J. (Springer, 2018-03)
    The polyphagous shot hole borer (PSHB), an ambrosia beetle (Coleoptera: Curculeonidae: Scolytinae) native to Asia, together with its fungal symbiont Fusarium euwallaceae, has emerged as an important invasive pest killing ...
  • The polyphagous shot hole borer beetle : current status of a perfect invader in South Africa 
    Van Rooyen, Elmar; Paap, Trudy; De Beer, Z. Wilhelm; Townsend, Garyn; Fell, Shawn; Nel, Wilma Janine; Morgan, Seamus; Hill, Martin; Gonzalez, Allan; Roets, Francois (Academy of Science of South Africa, 2021-11)
    The polyphagous shot hole borer (PSHB) beetle is a recent invader in South Africa. Together with its fungal symbiont, Fusarium euwallaceae, it can rapidly kill highly susceptible host plants. Its impact is most profound ...
