Massarinaceae
The Massarinaceae are a family of fungi in the order Pleosporales. Although taxa have a cosmopolitan distribution, they are better-known in temperate regions. They are thought to be saprobic in wood and bark; some species are weak pathogens. In 2013, Quaedvlieg and colleagues expanded this family with the genus ''Stagonospora'' by showing that the type of the genus (''Stagonospora paludosa'') actually clustered inside the Massarinaceae and not in the Phaeosphaeriaceae as was previously assumed. Subsequently, ''Stagonospora'', which has several important pathogens on grasses (e.g. ''Stagonospora nodorum'' and ''S. avenae''), was renamed ''Parastagonospora''.

Pleosporales
The Pleosporales is the largest order in the fungal class Dothideomycetes. By a 2008 estimate it contains 23 families, 332 genera and more than 4700 species. The majority of species are saprobes on decaying plant material in fresh water, marine, or terrestrial environments, but several species are also associated with living plants as parasites, epiphytes or endophytes. The best studied species cause plant diseases on important agricultural crops e.g. ''Cochliobolus heterostrophus'', causing southern corn leaf blight on maize, ''Phaeosphaeria nodorum'' (''Stagonospora nodorum'') causing glume blotch on wheat and ''Leptosphaeria maculans'' causing a stem canker (called blackleg) on cabbage crops (''Brassica''). Some species of Pleosporales occur on animal dung and a small number occur as lichens and rock-inhabiting fungi. Taxonomy The order was proposed in 1955 as Dothideomycetes with perithecioid ascomata with pseudoparaphyses amongst the asci, at which time there were sev ...

Massarina
''Massarina'' is a genus of fungi in the Massarinaceae family. The widespread genus contains about 125 species. Anamorph forms of species in ''Massarina'' include '' Acrocalymma'', '' Ceratophoma'', and '' Tetraploa''. ''Massarina'' was circumscribed by Pier Andrea Saccardo in 1883. The genus name of ''Massarina'' is in honour of Giuseppe Filippo Massara (1792-1839), who was an Italian doctor and botanist, working in Sondrio Sondrio (; lmo, Sùndri; rm, Sunder; archaic german: Sünders or ; la, Sundrium) is an Italian city and ''comune'' and Provincial Capital located in the heart of the Valtellina. , Sondrio counts approximately 21,876 inhabitants (2015) and it is ....

Helminthosporium
''Helminthosporium'' is a genus of fungi belonging to the family Massarinaceae. The genus has cosmopolitan distribution In biogeography, cosmopolitan distribution is the term for the range of a taxon that extends across all or most of the world in appropriate habitats. Such a taxon, usually a species, is said to exhibit cosmopolitanism or cosmopolitism. The ext ....

Anders Munk
Anders Munk (born 1922 in Kolding – died June 1989 in Copenhagen) was a Danish mycologist. He was an expert of the fungal group colloquially known as the Pyrenomycetes, and best known for his 1957 work "Danish Pyrenomycetes". Biography Munk's introduction to mycology was from Poul Larsen, who was previously a teacher and a former colleague of Munk's parents. Around that time Munk also made contact with biologist Øjvind Winge, who introduced Munk to the Pyrenomycetes, which were also his own main interest. Munk started studying botany at the University of Copenhagen in 1940. His interest in the fungi was further enhanced after reading John Axel Nannfeldt's 1932 work on the morphology and systematics of the discomycetes. Munk worked for some summers at the then-newly started , where he increased his knowledge about the ecology of the Pyrenomycetes. After graduating in 1946, Munk got a short-term job at Løvens Kemiske Fabrik (now LEO Pharma). He did not enjoy the work (manufactu ...

Dothideomycetes Families
Dothideomycetes is the largest and most diverse class of ascomycete fungi. It comprises 11 orders 90 families, 1300 genera and over 19,000 known species. Traditionally, most of its members were included in the loculoascomycetes, which is not part of the currently accepted classification. This indicates that several traditional morphological features in the class are not unique and DNA sequence comparisons are important to define the class. The designation loculoascomycetes was first proposed for all fungi which have ascolocular development. This type of development refers to the way in which the sexual structure, bearing the sexual spores (ascospores) forms. Dothideomycetes mostly produce flask-like structures referred to as pseudothecia, although other shape variations do exist (e.g. see structures found in Hysteriales). During ascolocular development pockets (locules) form first within the vegetative cells of the fungus and then all the subsequent structures form. These include ...
