Abstract

Endophytic fungal isolate S14 from Silybum marianum was examined using a 340-bp ITS sequence and compared with reference sequences of Aspergillus section Nigri type strains. Phylogenetic analysis placed S14 within section Nigri, with 98.5% sequence identity to five closely related type strains. Because the analyzed ITS region did not discriminate among these species, the isolate was designated Aspergillus sp. (section Nigri) S14 pending confirmatory sequencing and analysis of additional loci.
