Morphologically, both C. parabambusicola and C. bambusicola possess appressoria, and their ascospores lack guttules, whereas the strains in this study lacked appressoria and contained guttules within the ascospores (Liu et al. 2022). Pairwise base comparisons showed that between the type strain of this study (SICAUCC 26-0233) and C. parabambusicola, the nucleotide differences for gapdh, chs- 1, his 3, and act gene sequences were 8.7 % (25 / 286 bp, 0 gaps), 1.7 % (5 / 288 bp, 0 gaps), 7 % (27 / 388 bp, 7 gaps), and 2.2 % (6 / 278 bp, 0 gaps), respectively. Between the type strain of this study (SICAUCC 26-0233) and C. bambusicola, the nucleotide differences for gapdh, chs- 1, and act gene sequences were 11.9 % (34 / 286 bp, 3 gaps), 2.1 % (6 / 288 bp, 0 gaps), and 3.6 % (10 / 278 bp, 1 gap), respectively. The PHI test results indicated no significant recombination events between this strain and its closely related taxa (Φw = 0.95) (Fig. 3).
