Abstract
:Tidal flats have been reported to contain many microorganisms and play a critical role in maintaining biodiversity. In surveys of filamentous fungi from tidal flat sediments in China, seven new species of Eurotiales were discovered and described. Morphological characteristics and DNA sequence analyses of combined datasets of the BenA, CaM, and RPB2 regions support their placements and recognition as new species. Aspergillus liaoningensis sp. nov. and A. plumeriae sp. nov. belong to sections Candidi and Flavipedes of subgenus Circumdati, and A. subinflatus sp. nov. is a member of section Cremei of subgenus Cremei. Penicillium danzhouense sp. nov., P. tenue sp. nov., and P. zhanjiangense sp. nov. are attributed to sections Exilicaulis and Lanata-Divaricata of subgenus Aspergilloides. Talaromyces virens sp. nov. is in section Talaromyces. Detailed descriptions and illustrations of these novel taxa are provided. Their differences from close relatives were compared and discussed.

Tidal flats, which link the ocean and the land, contain plentiful microorganisms [1]. Filamentous fungi were reported to be dominant in the intertidal fungal ecosystem [2,3]. The order Eurotiales is one of the most abundant groups, which contains five families with about 28 genera, including Aspergillus P. Micheli, Penicillium Link, and Talaromyces C.R. Benj. [4]. These genera are economically important in the fields of human health, agriculture, industry, and pharmaceutics [2,4,5,6,7]. For example, A. fumigatus Fresen. and T. marneffei (Segretain, Capponi & Sureau) Samson, N. Yilmaz, Frisvad & Seifert are two well-known human pathogens [8,9]. Penicillin, an effective anti-infective drug [10], was produced by P. chrysogenum Thom. Aspergillus oryzae (Ahlb.) Cohn can be used in food fermentation and was reported as a producer of enzymes [11,12]. Therefore, the discovery of these fungi is of theoretical and practical importance.
Due to the sophisticated classification, infrageneric taxonomy has commonly been used for Aspergillus, Penicillium, and Talaromyces [4]. With the application of multiple loci phylogeny, the inter-specific relationships within these genera have become more clear [13,14,15]. Currently, the genus Aspergillus comprises 483 species belonging to 27 sections [11,16,17,18,19,20,21,22], Penicillium contains 530 species in 33 sections [20,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29,30,31,32,33,34,35,36,37,38], and Talaromyces includes 204 species in 7 sections [6,18,32,39,40,41,42]. They show a broad range of habitats, such as woody substratum, sandy soil, tidal flats, water, and indoor air [43,44,45,46,47].
During the examinations of filamentous fungi isolated from tidal flat sediments in different provinces in China, seven undescribed taxa were encountered. Judging by the cultural and microscopic characteristics, they belong to Aspergillus, Penicillium, and Talaromyces. Their taxonomic placements were further confirmed by carrying out multilocus phylogenetic analyses of β-tubulin (BenA), calmodulin (CaM), and the second-largest subunit of RNA polymerase II (RPB2). The distinctions between the novel species and their close relatives were compared.
2. Materials and Methods
2.1. Sampling and Fungal Isolation
Tidal flat sediment samples were collected from Guangdong, Hainan, and Liaoning provinces from August to October 2020. Sediment samples were kept at 4 °C until used. Strains were isolated using a 3% sea salt medium with the dilution plate method and were preserved in the China General Microbiological Culture Collection Center (CGMCC). Dried cultures were deposited in the Herbarium Mycologicum Academiae Sinicae (HMAS).
2.2. Morphological Observations
Colony characteristics were observed and described following the method of Visagie et al. [14]. Four standard growth media were used: Czapek yeast autolysate agar (CYA, yeast extract Oxoid), malt extract agar (MEA, Amresco), yeast extract agar (YES), and potato dextrose agar (PDA) [48,49,50]. A twenty-five percent lactic acid (LA) solution was used as the mounting medium for the microscopic examinations of structures and measurements of the conidial head, stipe, phialide, vesicle, and conidia. The methods for inoculation, morphological observation, and digital recordings were performed following previous studies [51,52].
2.3. DNA Extraction, PCR Amplification, and Sequencing
Genomic DNA was extracted from fungal mycelium with the Plant Genomic DNA Kit (Tiangen Biotech (Beijing) Co., Ltd., Beijing, China). The sequences of nuclear the ribosomal DNA ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 (ITS), BenA, CaM, and RPB2 regions were amplified on an ABI 2720 Thermal Cycler (Applied Biosciences, Foster City, CA, USA) with the primer pairs ITS5 and ITS4 [53], T1 and Bt2a (or Bt2b) [54,55], CMD5 and CMD6 [56], and fRPB2-5F and fRPB2-7cR [57], respectively. PCR products were sequenced in both directions on an ABI 3730 DNA Sequencer (Applied Biosciences, Foster City, CA, USA).
2.4. Phylogenetic Analyses
The newly generated sequences and those retrieved from GenBank are listed in Table 1. They were assembled and aligned with BioEdit 7.0.5 [58] and manually edited. To evaluate statistical congruence amongst the loci BenA, CaM, and RPB2, the partition homogeneity test (PHT) was performed in PAUP*4.0b10 [59] with 1000 replicates. To determine the positions of these strains, the datasets of these regions belonging to Aspergillus sect. Candidi, Cremei and Flavipedes, Penicillium sect. Exilicaulis and Lanata-Divaricata, and Talaromyces sect. Talaromyces were compiled and analyzed by the maximum likelihood (ML) and Bayesian inference (BI) methods. ML analysis was performed with the default GTRCAT model using RAxML [60]. The BI analysis was conducted by MrBayes 3.2.5 [61]. Nucleotide substitution models were determined by MrModeltest 2.3 [62]. Dendrogram trees were visualized and edited using TreeView v. 1.6.6 [63] and FigTree v. 1.4.4 (http://tree.bio.ed.ac.uk/software/figtree/ (accessed on 25 November 2018)). A Bayesian inference posterior probability (BIPP) greater than 90% and a maximum likelihood bootstrap support (MLBS) greater than 70% were shown at the nodes.
3. Results
3.1. Phylogenetic Analyses
To determine the positions of the Aspergillus strains, Hamigera avellanea Stolk & Samson and Penicillium expansum Link were used as outgroup taxa. The partition homogeneity tests (p = 0.01 and 0.25, respectively) indicated that the individual partitions were not highly incongruent [64]; thus, these three loci were combined for the phylogenetic analyses. The phylogenetic trees showed that strains CGMCC 3.25201 and 3.25202 were located in sect. Candidi and Flavipedes, respectively (Figure 1). The strain CGMCC 3.25201 shared a close relationship with A. subalbidus Visagie, Hirooka & Samson (BIPP/MLBS = 91%/89%), while CGMCC 3.25202 clustered with A. movilensis A. Nováková, Hubka, S.W. Peterson & M. Kolařík, receiving high supporting values (BIPP/MLBS = 100%/100%). The strain CGMCC 3.25203 grouped with other members of sect. Cremei ser. Inflati, receiving high statistic values (BIPP/MLBS = 100%/100%) (Figure 2).
In the phylogenetic analyses of Penicillium sect. Exilicaulis, H. avellanea and A. glaucus (L.) Link served as outgroup taxa. The partition homogeneity test (p = 0.01) indicated that the individual partitions were not highly incongruent [64]; thus, these three loci were combined for the phylogenetic analyses. The phylogenetic trees showed that strains CGMCC 3.25204 and 3.25205 were located in ser. Erubescentia (BIPP/MLBS = 100%/93%) (Figure 3). The strain CGMCC 3.25204 was clustered with P. canis S.W. Peterson, while strain CGMCC 3.25205 was grouped with P. striatisporum Stolk, both receiving full support.
In the phylogenetic analyses of Penicillium sect. Lanata-Divaricata, H. avellanea and P. glabrum (Wehmer) Westling were used as outgroup taxa. The partition homogeneity test (p = 0.01) indicated that the individual partitions were not highly incongruent [64]; thus, these three loci were combined for the phylogenetic analyses. The strain CGMCC 3.25206 was placed in ser. Janthinella and clustered with P. janthinellum Biourge with high supporting values (BIPP/MLBS = 100%/100%) (Figure 4).
To determine the position of the Talaromyces strain, T. trachyspermus (Shear) Stolk & Samson and T. chongqingensis X.C. Wang & W.Y. Zhuang were used as outgroup taxa. The partition homogeneity test (p = 0.01) indicated that the individual partitions were not highly incongruent [64]; thus, these three loci were combined for the phylogenetic analyses. The phylogenetic tree showed that strain CGMCC 3.25207 was grouped with the others of sect. Talaromyces (BIPP/MLBS = 100%/100%) and was closely related to T. xishaensis X.C. Wang, L. Wang & W.Y. Zhuang (BIPP/MLBS = 100%/98%) (Figure 5).

4. Discussion
The genus Aspergillus is divided into six subgenera with 27 sections [13,22]. Our new species A. liaoningensis was well-located in the ser. Candidi of sect. Candidi (BIPP/MLBS = 100%/100%) (Figure 1). Many species within this section have been reported as producers of secondary metabolites, such as taichunamides, shikimic acid derivatives, and terpene-derived taichunins [71,72,73]. Studies on the metabolic application of A. liaoningensis are surely our future goal. Aspergillus plumeriae belongs to ser. Spelaei of sect. Flavipedes, which is in accordance with the growth rate at 37 °C [65]. Aspergillus subinflatus was classified as a member of ser. Inflati, sect. Cremei of subgen. Cremei, and is most related to A. inflatus in both phylogeny and morphology. However, sequence comparisons revealed that there were 69 bp, 74 bp, and 88 bp unmatched loci detected in the BenA, CaM, and RPB2 regions between them.
Both P. danzhouense and P. tenue form monoverticillate conidiophores, consistent with the other members of ser. Erubescentia in sect. Exilicaulis [7,48,74,75]. The phylogenetic results indicate that P. danzhouense is closely related to P. catenatum with high statistical support values (Figure 3); however, the latter differs in having larger phialides (8.0–12 × 2.5–3.0 µm vs. 4.6–8.7 × 1.7–2.2 µm) [67]. Moreover, there were 20 bp and 56 bp divergences in the BenA and CaM regions between them. Our results also showed that P. tenue was grouped with P. striatisporum, receiving full support (Figure 3), but the latter possesses ellipsoidal to ovoid and striate conidia [68]. Penicillium dravuni, a marine-derived species belonging to this section, was not included in our phylogenetic analysis because no sequence data are available at present. However, it can be easily distinguished from P. danzhouense (white to light pink colonies) and P. tenue (white to light yellow colonies) because it forms yellow-gray colonies and has faster growth rates (25–35 mm vs. 21–24 mm, and 11–12 mm in CYA at 25 °C) [76].
Sect. Lanata-Divaricata is a species-rich section in Penicillium, and about 85 species have been described hitherto [4,20,27,28,31,33]. Our phylogenetic tree indicated that P. zhanjiangense was well-located among other species of sect. Lanata-Divaricata, with high supporting values (BIPP/MLBS = 97%/100%), and it clustered with P. janthinellum (BIPP/MLBS = 100%/100%) (Figure 4). A new species of the section was added in this study.
Since the establishment of Talaromyces, eight sections have been proposed: Bacillispori, Helici, Islandici, Purpurei, Subinflati, Talaromyces, Tenues, and Trachyspermi [40]. The phylogenetic overview of the sect. Talaromyces was conducted by Wang and Zhuang [40], and about 88 species are currently known in this section [40,41,42]. The three-locus phylogeny formed a well-supported monophyletic group (BIPP/MLBS = 100%/100%) and indicates that T. virens is related to but distinct from T. xishaensis (Figure 5). They can be easily distinguished by their different colony features on different media [70]. Moreover, there are 11 bp, 34 bp, and 32 bp unmatched loci detected in the BenA, CaM, and RPB2 regions between the ex-type cultures (CGMCC 3.25207 and CGMCC 3.17995).
Species of the genera Penicillium, Aspergillus, and Talaromyces have been isolated from various substrates, including dust, soil, dung, cloth, human tissue, plants, and insects [4,11]. Due to the special ecological habitat, the fungi of these groups within tidal flats have high biodiversity and are an important source of active natural products [77,78,79,80]. Recently, three novel taxa of Penicillium were reported in tidal flats [28]. Similarly, the present study introduces three species of Aspergillus as well as three taxa of Penicillium and one of Talaromyces derived from tidal flat sediments. With the extensive use of molecular approaches, large-scale surveys in these unexplored tidal flats regions will significantly improve our knowledge of fungal species diversity in special ecological environments.
5. Conclusions
The filamentous fungi from tidal flat sediments in China were surveyed, and seven novel taxa of the genera Aspergillus, Penicillium, and Talaromyces were discovered. With the joining of the new species, the phylogenetic relationships among species of these three genera were updated.
