Abstract

During a survey on root endophytes in mining areas, Aquapteridospora sp. was isolated from the roots of Pinus densiflora and Miscanthus sinensis. Morphological observation and molecular analysis revealed it to be an undescribed species. Here we provide its description as a novel taxon, A. rhizicola, with its phylogenetic position.

Keywords:     Distoseptisporales,dark septate endophyte,mining area,Miscanthus sinensis,Pinus densiflora.
