Exploring the Diversity and Ecological Dynamics of Palm Leaf Spotting Fungi—A Case Study on Ornamental Palms in Portugal by Diana S. Pereira, Alan J. L. Phillips

“…The taxonomic structures of the PLSF contrasted markedly from tropical palm fungi, especially in the prevalence of pleosporalean coelomycetes of the <i>Didymellaceae</i> and <i>Phaeosphaeriaceae</i>, including recently introduced or not previously documented genera on <i>Arecaceae</i>. This novel assemblage suggests that climatic constraints shape the structure of palm fungal communities, resulting in distinctive temperate and tropical assemblages. …”
