Alternaria helianthi and two unreported species of Alternaria in Korea were isolated from lesions of Alternaria leaf spot disease of sunflower. The unrecorded species of Alternaria were identified as A. helianthinficients and A. protenta based on the morphological characteristics of conidiophores and conidia. A. helianthi was the dominant species, although all the three species were associated with the disease. A. helianthi, A. helianthinficiens and A. protenta produced similar symptoms on detached sunflower leaves. This is the first report of A. helianthinficiens and A. protenta pathogenic on sunflower in Korea.

국내에서 분리한 20종의 Alternaria 277개 균주를 사용하여 Alternaria 진균소독인 altenuene(ALT), altertoxin-I(ATX-I) 및 tenuazonic acid(TA)의 in vitro에서의 생성능과 그 분포를 조사하였다. 각 사용균주를 200g의 살균된 쌀배지에 접종하여 $25^{\circ}C$에서 3주간 배양하였다. Alternaria 배양체들을 methanol로 추출하고 용매분획과 TLC 및 HPLC분석을 통하여 순화하였다. A. alternata와 그와 형태적으로 유사한 A. kikuchiana, A. longipes 및 A. mail는 비록 종간 및 종내의 균주간에 생성량의 차이는 매우 다양하였지만 TA를 비롯한 5종의 진균독소를 모두 생성하였다. A sesami와 A. sesamicola는 4종의 진균독소(AOH, AME, ALT, ATX-I)를 생성하였고 A. cucumerina, A. dauci, A. macrospora, A. porri, A. solani, A. tagetica와 A. zinniae와 같은 대형분생포자와 긴 beak를 형성하는 7종의 Alternaria균들은 AOH와 AME만을 생성하였다. A. brassicicola, A. helianthi, A. panax, A. radicina 및 A. raphani등 5종의 Alternaria는 5종의 진균 독소를 모두 생성하지 않았다.

The taxonomy of the Alternaria spp. has been a subject, of controversy because of their high variability in conidial morphology and polymorphism displayed even in pure cultures. The published Korean literature on the genus Alternaria is scattered and fragmentary, and pertains to about 25 species with special emphasis on occurrence and pathogenicity, but mycological studies on this group of fungi are insufficient. This is the first series of detailed and consolidated account of Korean species of Alternaria, which includes 11 species; viz., Alternaria brassicae, A. brassicicola, A. cinerariae, A. dauci, A. dianthi, A. dianthicola, A. helianthi, A. helianthinffciens, A. iridicola, A. japonica and A. protenta. Detailed diagnostic descriptions, specific characterizations, taxonomic discussions and illustrations for each species are presented.
