Abstract

The order Magnaporthales comprises about 200 species and includes the economically and scientifically important rice blast fungus and the take-all pathogen of cereals, as well as saprotrophs and endophytes. Recent advances in phylogenetic analyses of these fungi resulted in taxonomic revisions. This paper lists the 28 currently accepted genera in Magnaporthales with their type species and available gene and genome resources This work arises from the Sustainable Crop production for International Development (SCPRID) programme
