Review on the Systemic Taxonomy of Genus Botryosphae ria

The paper reviewed the taxonomic status of genusB otryosphaeria, surveyed the most important anamorphicgenera nameswhich associated with genusB otryosphaeria, itwas found that the D iplodia spp. and Fusicoccum spp.were the anamorphic fungi and D ichom era were the synanamorphic fungi of Fusicoccum. The phylogenetic relationship among some fungi, such as B. dothidea, B. ribis, B. berengeriana, B. parva, B. lutea, and other comp lexfungi was also introduced. This paper also listed more than 20 new anamorphic and telemorphic specieswhich reported in recently years. Some available taxonomic methods used in B otryosphaeria phylogenic analysis were reported.Finally, by comparing the fungal study status in China and in the world, the aims and highlights of B otryosphaeriataxonomy were indicated.
