Abstract
Seedborne mycobiota of Lupinus albus was assessed using blotter paper and agar media with Rose Bengal or semi-selective media for Pythium or Fusarium. Samples of 200 seeds were taken from each of 16 inventories, comprising 14 accessions originating from Germany, France, Ukraine, Syria, Hungary or Spain, and increased 1-2 times through propagation by the USDA-ARS Western Regional Plant Introduction Station. A total of 307 fungus isolates were recovered and preserved with over 96% belonging to 10 genera: Penicillium (47%), Cladosporium (32%, including Cladosporium-like Chalastospora), Alternaria (4%), Aspergillus (4%), Fusarium (3%), Rhizopus (3%), Ulocladium (3%), Chaetomium (0.5%) and Arthrinium (< 0.5%). By sub-sampling, fungi were further identified by morpho-cultural characters and/or DNA sequences as Alternaria infectoria, A. alternata, and A. tenuissima species-groups, Arthrinium arundinus, Aspergillus niger, Chalastospora gossypii, Cladosporium herbarum and C. cladosporioides species complexes, Chaetomium sp., Fusarium acuminatum, Rhizopus stolonifer, and Ulocladium atrum group. Penicillia included P. hordei, but most Penicillia could not be assigned species names either by morphological traits or β-tubulin DNA sequence data.
