Abstract

A strain (SYPF 7183T) was isolated from rhizosphere soil of Panax notoginseng in southwest China. Phylogenetic analyses indicated that strain SYPF 7183T was distinct from the other Absidia species with well-supported values. Strain SYPF 7183T produced spherical or subpyriform sporangia and short cylindrical sporangiospores. The azygospores were globose to oval. Based on morphological and phylogenetic evidence, the novel strain Absidia panacisoli sp. nov. is proposed.

Keywords: 28S rRNA gene region; azygospores; phylogenetic analyses; taxonomy.
