Pyrenomycete causing deformation on Corylus twigs?
Björn Wergen,
02-02-2014 20:12
Hi friends,I have some Corylus twigs here with a deformation caused by small, black pyrenomycetes, which are growing on the deformations, while the twig is still living.
Pseudothecia 0,2-0,35mm, 1/2 embedded into the surface and growing freely later, black, pyriforme, smooth, without ostiolus.
Spores are 20-24x8-10µm, asymmetrical, upper cell broader, generally with three septations, smooth, hyaline. Asci with 8 spores, somewhat saccate, broadest in the middle-lower region, IKI- (red), bitunicate, no stalk, 55-65x17-22µm, without pseudoparaphyses/periphyses. Wall consisting of a 12-15µm thick region of dark brown parenchymatous cells and a ~10µm thick region with paler to hyaline, compressed cells.
Any idea? I thought about Leptosphaerulina, but I did not find any species with the described features.
regards,
björn

Re : Pyrenomycete causing deformation on Corylus twigs?
Hi Björn,
based on the image the host is Ulmus minor due to the cork wings (or strips) and alternating twigs. The wings are dead.
The fungus is apparently Saccothecium sepincola, typically occurring on Rosa, although the spore size you give is unusually large.

Re : Pyrenomycete causing deformation on Corylus twigs?
Hi Walter,
really Saccothecium sepincola? I thought about that species, but it is described mostly with more than 4 septations. Quite curious...however, thanks for your opinion :)

Re : Pyrenomycete causing deformation on Corylus twigs?
image 3 in the middle shows an ascospore with 5 septa, if I see that correctly
The fasciculate asci are also typical.

Re : Pyrenomycete causing deformation on Corylus twigs?
Hi Björn,
Again Walter is right, I think.
All features fit well with S. sepincola (particularly hamathecium). Generally, it's given on Rosa. But I have already found it on Rubus sp. and Cornus sanguinea.
