Endophytic Fungal Community of Pinus densiflora Infected by Different Incidences of Sphaeropsis sapinea in a Mixed Coniferous Forest
Open accessAbstract
Shoot blight of pine caused by Sphaeropsis sapinea is a serious threat to the health of Pinus densiflora.However, little is known about the effect of S. sapinea on the structure of endophytic fungal communities in needles of P. densiflora.In this study, the diversity and structure of the endophytic fungal communities associated with asymptomatic and symptomatic needles of P. densiflora were investigated.Needles of P. densiflora were sampled from mixed coniferous forests, and high through-put sequencing was used to determine the diversity and community structure of endophytic fungi.The results demonstrated that endophytic fungal abundance increased when the lesion length was longer, and the endophytic fungal diversity showed an upward trend as the infection of S. sapinea worsened.The dominant genera of endophytic fungi in asymptomatic needles of P. densiflora in mixed coniferous forest was Paraconiothyrium and Selenophoma.Cenangium is considered to have a certain association with S. sapinea infection in the endophytic fungal community.The results showed that S. sapinea infection affected the endophytic fungal community in needles of P. densiflora in a mixed coniferous forest.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?
The source backs part of the claim, not all of it — or backs it for a different population, condition or comparison.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
