et al. 2006). Species in these genera are normally found as endophytes and
pathogens of woody plant species such as Eucalyptus and Acacia (Mohali et
al. 2007; Pérez et al. 2010), and they have caused serious economic losses in
Pinus cultures in South America (Burgess et al. 2007).


Figure 11. Bayesian phylogenetic tree based on ITS sequence, showing the
relationships between species of Cladosporium genus. The tree is rooted with
Cercospora beticola sequence obtained from GenBank. Scale bar shows 2 changes and
Bayesian posterior probability values are indicated at the nodes. T indicates type strain
sequence.
