Fig. 1 The morphological characteristics of Pestalotiopsis-like species isolated from tea plants. (a) Symptoms caused by gray blight disease on tea plants; (b) Cultural traits of Pestalotiopsis isolates on potato dextrose agar (PDA) medium at 25 ± 2°C for six days; (c) Conidial morphology of Pestalotiopsis isolates on PDA medium after 8 days incubation (scale bar = 10 um)
Fig. 2 Phylogenetic tree obtained using the MP method on the basis of combined ITS, β-tubulin and TEF gene sequence data from distinctive Pestalotiopsis species in this study (bold font) and published sequences. Neopestalotiopsis clavispora CBS 447.73 served as the outgroup. The numbers in the bootstrap test (1,000 replicates) are indicated above the branches and only values > 50% are shown
