Magnaporthaceae
The Magnaporthaceae are a family of fungi in the order Magnaporthales. It was circumscribed by Paul F. Cannon in 1994 for a group of grass-associated fungi centered on ''Magnaporthe'' (''Nakataea''). Magnaporthaceae have a harpophora-like asexual morphology and are often associated with roots of grasses or cereals. Important pathogens from the ''Magnaporthaceae'' include '' Nakataea oryzae, Gaeumannomyces graminis'', '' Magnaporthiopsis poae'' and ''Magnaporthe rhizophila''. Taxonomy and systematics Type genus: ''Nakataea'' Hara (= ''Magnaporthe'' R.A. Krause & R.K. Webster) Type species: '' Nakataea oryzae'' (Catt.) J. Luo & N. Zhang Description Magnaporthaceae that reproduce sexually, have perithecial ascomata that are immersed in host tissue, frequently with long necks. Asci are cylindrical and stain positive in Meltzer's reagent. Ascospores are curved to sigmoid and contain septa. They show variability in their morphology and can be filiform (''Gaeumannomyces'') or fus ...

Pyriculariaceae
The Pyriculariaceae are a family of ascomycete fungi in the order Magnaporthales. It was introduced by S. Klaubauf, M.H. Lebrun & P.W. Crous in 2014. Taxonomy Type genus: Pyricularia Sacc. 1880 Type species: Pyricularia grisea Sacc. 1880 The polyphyletic nature of Pyricularia has been resolved in 2014 leading to the definition of a new family, the Pyriculariaceae. Phylogenetic analysis showed that three clear clades could be distinguished. One clade corresponds to Magnaporthaceae (based on Nakataea), and two other clades were defined as new families: Pyriculariaceae (based on Pyricularia), and Ophioceraceae (based on Ophioceras). Description The Pyriculariaceae that reproduce sexually form perithecial fruiting bodies (ascomata), which are immersed, black and with long cylindrical necks covered in setae. Asci are subcylindrical, unitunicate, short-stipitate and with a large apical ring staining in Meltzer's iodine reagent. Ascospores are septate and fusiform. Asexual ...

Pyricularia Oryzae
''Pyricularia'' is a genus of fungi which was named by Saccardo in 1880.Saccardo, P.A. Michelia 2(no. 6): 20. 1880 The polyphyletic nature of ''Pyricularia'' has been resolved and species of ''Pyricularia s. str.'' were shown to belong to a monophyletic clade (including '' Pyricularia grisea'' isolates), defining the family Pyriculariaceae. Etymology The genus ''Pyricularia'' is named after the pyriform (pear-shaped) shape of its conidia. Pathogenicity The genus ''Pyricularia'' includes species that are pathogenic on a wide range of monocot plants. For example, '' Pyricularia oryzae'' (sexual morph ''Magnaporthe oryzae''), the causal agent of the rice blast disease, is one of the most widely distributed diseases of rice, and is highly destructive leading to up to 30% yield loss worldwide. ''Pyricularia oryzae'' isolates from rice are mostly host-specific and infect only few host plants beside rice (barley and '' Lolium''). ''Pyricularia oryzae'' isolates from other host ...

Magnaporthe Rhizophila
''Magnaporthe rhizophila'' is a fungus species in the family Magnaporthaceae. These dark mycelial fungi are common pathogens of cereal and grass roots. Rice blast is one disease known to be caused by M. rhizophila and presents with vascular discoloration in the host organism. The fungus lives best in drier humid conditions, explaining why it is most often found in the soils of Australia, South Africa, and the Southeastern United States. Development Similar to other ascomycota, the lifecycle of ''M. rhizophila'' is split into two parts: the sexual and asexual stages. The sexual lifestage is characterized by a globose (400-500 um wide) fruit-like body that contains the sexual spores, called a perithecia, which occurs in either singles or multiples. Perithecia are flask-like shaped and contain asci, which are septated, unitunicate stalks of 8 ascospores. The ascospores are biseriate, fusiform, and slightly curved or helical when naive. The perithecia is lined with cells calle ...
