Abstract A species of aphelenchoidid nematode was isolated from a subterranean termite, Cylindrotermes macrognathus, during a survey of termite-associated nematodes in a conserved forest in La Selva, Costa Rica. The nematode was morphologically intermediate between the families Aphelenchidae and Aphelenchoididae, i.e., the nematode had a true bursa supported by bursal limb-like genital papillae but lacked a clear pharyngeal isthmus. The molecular phylogenetic status of the new nematode among tylenchid, cephalobid, panagrolaimid, aphelenchid and aphelenchoidid genera was analysed based on ca 1.2 kb of SSU ribosomal DNA sequence and the inferred position was basal to the family Aphelenchoididae. It was clearly not part of the clade containing the genus Aphelenchus (=Aphelenchidae). This nematode is described herein as Pseudaphelenchus yukiae n. gen., n. sp., and the family definition of Aphelenchoididae is emended to include the unique morphological characters of this new genus. The molecular phylogenetic analysis supported the paraphyly of the three Aphelenchoidinae genera Aphelenchoides, Laimaphelenchus and Schistonchus and the monophyly of Ektaphelenchinae, Seinura (Seinurinae) and Noctuidonema (Acugutturinae). However, many more representatives are needed to resolve the family-genus level phylogeny of Aphelenchoididae.

Species within the genera <em>Tomentella </em>are among the most important ECM in forests. However, our knowledge about their functional characteristics is still rather limited. The ectomycorrhizae of <em>Tomentella badia </em>on <em>Picea abies </em>are described here in detail and compared to the non-identified ECM <em>Piceirhiza obscura</em>. A pseudoparenchymatous mantle formed by epidermoid cells is covered by heaps of epidermoid cells. This mantle type is regarded as a new one and designated as mantle type R. Many cells filled with dark blue contents and/or blue granules, together with clampless hyphae, are distinct characters of these ectomycorrhizae. Molecular-phylogenetic analysis of the ITS region was used for identification.

AbstractBackgroundThe economic value of ginseng in the global medicinal plant trade is estimated to be in excess of US$2.1 billion. At the same time, the evolutionary placement of ginseng (Panax ginseng) and the complex evolutionary history of the genus is poorly understood despite several molecular phylogenetic studies. In this study, we use a full plastome phylogenomic framework to resolve relationships inPanaxand to identify molecular markers for species discrimination.ResultsWe used high-throughput sequencing of MBD2-Fc fractionatedPanaxDNA to supplement publicly available plastid genomes to create a phylogeny based on fully assembled and annotated plastid genomes from 60 accessions of 8 species. The plastome phylogeny based on a 163 kbp matrix resolves the sister relationship ofPanax ginsengwithP. quinquefolius. The closely related speciesP. vietnamensisis supported as sister ofP. japonicus. The plastome matrix also shows that the markerstrnC-rps16, trnS-trnG, andtrnE-trnMcould be used for unambiguous molecular identification of all the represented species in the genus.ConclusionsMBD2 depletion reduces the cost of plastome sequencing, which makes it a cost-effective alternative to Sanger sequencing based DNA barcoding for molecular identification. The plastome phylogeny provides a robust framework that can be used to study the evolution of morphological characters and biosynthesis pathways of ginsengosides for phylogenetic bioprospecting. Molecular identification of ginseng species is essential for authenticating ginseng in international trade and it provides an incentive for manufacturers to create authentic products with verified ingredients.

AbstrakL-asparaginase (EC 3.5.1.1) adalah enzim yang menghidrolisis asam amino L-asparagin menjadi amonia dan asam aspartat. Enzim ini mempunyai manfaat utama dalam bidang farmasi dan industri pangan. Enzim L-asparaginase tersebar secara luas pada mikroorganisme. Mikroorganisme yang mempunyai potensi menghasilkan enzim ini adalah mikroorganisme endofit dari tumbuhan mangrove. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengisolasi dan mengidentifikasi bakteri endofit penghasil L-asparaginase dari tumbuhan mangrove Buta-buta (E. agallocha). Skrining dilakukan dengan menggunakan medium selektif untuk mendapatkan bakteri penghasil enzim L-asparaginase. Identifikasi molekuler dilakukan dengan menggunakan analisis filogenetik berdasarkan data sekuen 16S rDNA. Dari hasil penelitian ini didapatkan lima isolat bakteri endofit penghasil enzim L-asparaginase, di mana isolat penghasil L-asparaginase tertinggi diidentifikasi secara molekuler. Hasil identifikasi filogenetik molekuler menunjukkan bahwa isolat kode D.104 teridentifikasi sebagai Enterobacter cloacae. Molecular Identification of L-asparaginase-Producing Endophytic Bacteria Isolated from Mangrove Buta-Buta (Excoecaria agallocha)AbstractL-asparaginase (EC 3.5.1.1) is an enzyme which hydrolyze amino acid L-asparagine to aspartate and ammonia. Two main applications of this enzyme are in the pharmaceutical and food industries. The enzyme is widely distributed on microorganism. A potential source of L-asparaginase-producing bacteria is an endophytic bacteria from mangrove plant. This study aimed to isolate and identify L-asparaginase-producing endophytic bacteria from a mangrove plant, E. agallocha (Buta-buta). A screening was carried out using a selective medium to obtain the L-asparaginase enzyme producing bacteria. Molecular identification was carried out using phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rDNA sequence data. In this study, five isolates of the L-asparaginase-producing endophytic bacteria were obtained. The molecular phylogenetic identification showed that the highest L-asparaginase-producing bacterial isolate (code D.104) was identified as Enterobacter cloacae.
