Morphological and Molecular Identification of Sepultariella semi-immersa : New Locality Record for Türkiye

Abstract

Sepultariella semi-immersa (Pyronemataceae, Ascomycota) was identified in a new locality for macrofungal diversity in Türkiye from Çanakkale Onsekiz Mart University Terzioğlu Campus. S. semi-immersa, which constitutes a species comlex, is included in the Sepultariella clade. This study gives a detailed description of the species, geographical coordinates, photographs taken in its natural habitat, and its phylogenetic position in the genus Sepultariella based on molecular data. The Internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region sequence determined the evolutionary and phylogenetic relationship within the genus but S. semi-immersa, which might constitute a species complex.

Sepultariella semiimmersa 'nın Morfolojik ve Moleküler Tanımlaması: Türkiye için Yeni Lokalite Kaydı

Abstract

Sepultariella semi-immersa (Pyronemataceae, Ascomycota), Türkiye’nin Çanakkale Onsekiz Mart Üniversitesi Terzioğlu Kampüsünden Türkiye makrofungal çeşitliliği için yeni lokalite olarak tanımlanmıştır. Bir tür kompeksi oluşturan S. semi-immersa, Sepultariella clade’ı içerisinde yer almaktadır. Çalışmada türe ait detaylı deskripsiyon, coğrafi koordinat, doğal habitatında çekilmiş fotoğralar ve moleküler verilere dayalı olarak yapılan cins içindeki filogenetik pozisyonu verilmiştir. Cins içindeki evrimsel ve filogenetik ilişkinin tespit edilmesinde Dahili kopyalanmış aralayıcı (ITS) bölge dizisi belirleyici olmuştur.
