The genus Calonectria includes many aggressive plant pathogens causing diseases on various agricultural crops as well as forestry and ornamental tree species. Some species have been accidentally introduced into new environments via international trade of putatively asymptomatic plant germplasm or contaminated soil, resulting in significant economic losses. This review provides an overview of the taxonomy, population biology, and pathology of Calonectria species, specifically emerging from contemporary studies that have relied on DNA-based technologies. The growing importance of genomics in future research is highlighted. A life cycle is proposed for Calonectria species, aimed at improving our ability to manage diseases caused by these pathogens.
该属包括许多侵袭性植物病原菌，可引起各种农作物以及林业和观赏树种的疾病。一些物种已通过无明显症状的植物种质或污染土壤的国际贸易意外引入新环境，导致重大经济损失。本综述概述了 Calonectria 物种的分类学、种群生物学和病理学，特别是依赖于基于 DNA 的技术的当代研究中出现的新情况。强调了基因组学在未来研究中的重要性日益增加。提出了 Calonectria 物种的生活史，旨在提高我们管理这些病原体引起的疾病的能力。
