Figure A2.

Phylogenetic position of fungal strains belonging to the class Dothideomycetes (a) and habit of representative cultured strains: (b) A1077 (Pleosporales, Phoma clade); (c) A1086 (Pleosporales, Phoma clade); (d) A1168 (Lichenostigmatales). The symbol legend reported describes the identity of the original samples from which the fungi were isolated: lichen species name/lichenicolous fungus species name infecting that lichen thallus. The isolated strains are reported with their DNA ID number; newly characterized strains are in bold; strains already characterized in Muggia et al. [9] and included in the analyses of growth media are not in bold. The nomenclature of the clades follows Muggia et al. [9]. Fully supported branches (bootstrap support = 100%) are in bold. Scale bar = (b) 2 mm, (c) 4 mm, (d) 5 mm.
