Reviewer/Referee Access Agreement

You have reached this page using a special URL that is intended to be used by journal editors and reviewers or referees of a paper that is under consideration for publication. This URL gives you access to the submitted data and metadata associated with analyses and results presented in the paper under review. Please carefully examine the data paying special attention to the following:
  • The citation data (authors, year, citation, abstract) should be complete, except for information that is not yet known (e.g. volume or page numbers).
  • Verify that nexus files are error-free and executable by software programs (e.g. PAUP, Mesquite, MacClade, etc). Please make sure that the taxon labels for trees are identical, or a subset of, the taxon labels in data matrices connected by way of an analysis. If taxon labels in trees do not match with taxon labels in associated data matrices, the data will not be useful to the scientific community.
  • Verify that data are not missing and that opportunities to supply valuable metadata are not overlooked. For example, TreeBASE can store Genbank accession numbers, museum voucher IDs, latitude and longitudes for specimen localities, character names and character state names for morphological data, etc. Including these metadata are sometimes overlooked by submitting authors, yet sharing this metadata is extremely valuable to the scientific community. Please use your power as a reviewer to encourage the sharing of richly-annotated metadata.
  • Verify that analyses are not missing and that, where possible, analysis entries include software commands (e.g. the contents of a PAUP block or MrBayes block) so that analyses can be replicated easily (e.g. commands that describe substitution models, data partitions, and heuristic search parameters).
  • Verify that taxon labels are mapped against TreeBASE's taxonomic dictionary. Data in TreeBASE can only be found using a taxon name search if the taxon labels are properly mapped.
By clicking the 'OK' button below, you agree to keep these data confidential; you agree not to retain these data after completing your report to the journal editor; you agree not to use these data or knowledge of these data for the purposes of your research until and unless the paper under review has been published and the data have been made available to the general public; you agree to keep the URL confidential.

Abstract

Ophioceras is accommodated in the monotypic family Ophioceraceae (Magnaporthales, Sordariomycetes), and the genus is delimited based on molecular data. During an ongoing survey of bambusicolous fungi in southwest China and Thailand, we collected a submerged decaying branch of bamboo from Sichuan Province, China and an Ophioceras species occurring on this substrate was observed and isolated. An Ophioceras taxon was delimited based on morphological characteristics and combined LSU, RPB1 and ITS sequence analyses and is described as Ophioceras sichuanense sp. nov. The species formed a well-supported clade basal to Ophioceras (100% ML, 1.00 PP). Based on the updated phylogenetic tree of Magnaporthales, Ceratosphaerella castillensis (generic type) and C. rhizomorpha formed a clade within Ophioceras and morphologically resemble Ophioceras. Therefore, Ceratosphaerella is synonymized under Ophioceras. The phylogenetic relationships of Ophioceras are discussed in relation to morphological similarities of genera in Magnaporthales. The generic circumscription of Ophioceras is emended.
