Abstract
Two American grapevine leaf rust (GLR) fungi, Phakopsora muscadiniae and P. uva, were found to be phylogenetically different from Asian-Australasian GLR fungi. In the phylogram based on rDNA region sequences, a clade of the American fungi was sister to an inclusive clade of three autoecious species on Meliosma and a heteroecious species host-alternating between Meliosma and Parthenocissus. An invasive Brazilian GLR fungus (as P. meliosmae-myrianthae) was included in the Asian-Australasian GLR fungi clade, or the clade of the Thai population of Phakopsora sp. It could be assumed that the Brazilian GLR fungus originated from an inadvertently introduced Thai population.
