Thecaphora is a genus of basidiomycote fungus which contains several species of plant pathogens. The widespread genus contained about 57 species in 2008.[2] and held 61 species in 2020.[3]
In 2008, genus Glomosporium and Kochmania were declared synonyms of Thecaphora.[4] Also Sorosporium mohgaoenseChitaley & Yawale became Thecaphora mohgaoensis(Chitaley & Yawale) R.K. Saxena, Wijayaw., D.Q. Dai, K.D. Hyde & P.M. Kirk.[3]
The genus Thecaphora contains plant-parasitic microfungi infecting hosts belonging to a range of dicotyledonous families. The species and their current nomenclature were summarised by Vánky et al. (2008),[4] and Vánky (2012).[5] Recently, three new species were described in Crous et al. (2018),[6] Kruse et al. (2018),[7] and Piątek et al. (2021).[8]Thecaphora species are characterised by having spores in balls (or rarely single), generally without sterile cells, and infections are found in a range of different organs of their host plants.[9]
