Fusarium temperatum, a new species from maize closely related to Fusarium subglutinans

Abstract

A novel biological species, Fusarium temperatum J. Scauflaire et F. Munaut was described within the Gibberella fujikuroi species complex (GFSC), on basis of a robust polyphasic approach. The morphology, the mating compatibilities, the genetic diversity and its relationships with species within the GFSC were analyzed
