Abstract

A fungal isolate DUCC5000 from a garden plant Pachysandra terminalis was identified as Paraconiothyrium brasiliense based on the results of morphological and molecular studies. The fungus formed brown to black conidiomata of (0.2-0.7)-2(-3.5) mm singly or as a group on PDA. Conidia measured $2-5{\times}1.8-3{\mu}m$ in size, hyaline, ellipsoid to short-cylindrical, and rounded at both ends. The internal transcribed spacer (ITS) DNA of the isolate shared 100% nucleotide sequence homology with those of known P. brasiliense isolates. Phylogenetic tree inferred from the ITS sequence analysis showed that the DUCC5000 isolate formed a clade with known isolates of P. brasiliense. The fungal mycelia grew better on oatmeal agar than on MEA and PDA. On PDA media under various pH conditions, fungal mycelial growth was observed at pH 9. Colony morphology of the fungus tended to alter depending on the kinds of nutrient media and pH condition. On chromagenic media, the fungus demonstrated its ability to produce extracellular enzymes including amyalse, avicelase, ${\beta}$-glucosidase, protease, and xylanase. However, in pathogenicity testing, no disease symptoms were observed on the leaves of P. terminalis. This strain is the first report on P. terminalis in Korea.

수호초로부터 분리된 DUCC5000 균주를 형태적, 분자생물학적 분류를 통해 Paraconiothyrium brasiliense로 동정하였다. 본 균은 기존에 알려진 P. brasiliense 균주의 ITS 염기서열과 100%의 상동성을 보였다. 계통유전학적 분석 결과 P. brasiliense 균주와 같은 clade를 형성하였다. 서로 다른 영양 배지와 pH 조건 하에서 균사생육 특성을 조사한 결과 oatmeal agar 배지와 pH 9에서 최적의 생장을 보였다. 배지 종류에 따라 그리고 pH 조건에 따라 균총 형태가 달라지는 특성을 지니고 있었다. Chroma 반응배지를 이용하여 7가지 세포외 효소의 분비 능력을 조사한 결과 ${\beta}$-glucosidase 활성이 가장 활발하였고 CM-cellulase와 xylerase에서는 활성이 미약하였다. 인공 접종하였으나 수호초에 대한 병원성은 나타내지 않았다. 본 균은 수호초에서는 국제적으로 처음 보고되는 균이다.
