Poplar plantations provide important industrial feedstock in China. Red spot symptoms were observed on leaves of Populus tomentosa and P. deltoides in southeastern China. Based on morphology and molecular phylogenetic analysis, the fungus isolated from disease spots was identified as Elsinoë australis, which has been previously recognized as a pathogen of Citrus spp. and jojoba but has not been reported in China. Pathogenicity tests found that isolates from two poplar species caused red spot symptoms on leaves from different poplar species and also led to scab formation on the fruit of one hybrid citrus but not on fruit of orange, lemon, or grapefruit. The draft genome of one E. australis isolate was generated. The genetic architecture of the MAT1-1 and MAT1-2 loci of E. australis was revealed by genome sequence and long-range PCR analyses. Single isolates carried only one of two opposite mating-types was confirmed by idiomorph-specific PCR, suggesting a heterothallic mating system. Our results not only revealed a new E. australis pathotype causing poplar spot anthracnose in China but also provided its genome and mating system information.
