Abstract

Xylariales are common endophytes of . However, xylarialean species resolution remains difficult without sequence data and poor sporulation on artificial media and asexual descriptions for only several species and old type material. The surface-sterilized and morph-molecular methods were used for fungal isolation and identification. A total of forty-seven strains were identified as twenty-three species belonging to Apiosporaceae, Hypoxylaceae, Induratiaceae, and Xylariaceae. Five new species-, , , and were discovered. Three tentative new species were speculated in . Thirteen known fungal species from , , , and were also identified. Another two strains were only identified at the genus and family level ( sp., sp.). This study recorded 12 new hosts for xylarialean endophytes. This is the first report of Xylariales species as endophytes from var. , , , , , and . is associated with abundant xylarialean taxa, especially species of and . We recommend the use of oat agar with low concentrations to induce sporulation of strains.
