Fungal endophyte isolates from Sarracenia identified based on sequence data from the internal transcribed spacer regions of nuclear ribosomal DNA (ITS rDNA).

aGenBank accessions having the greatest identity (>97%) to the Sarracenia endophytes based on megablast of ITS rDNA sequences. Consideration was given only to accessions with voucher strains. All megablast ITS rDNA queries identified GenBank accessions with E-values of zero, except for endophyte strain SPs5-1, which was most similar to basidiomycete accession EU622841 but with an E-value of 1e-176.bThree different C. gloeosporioides alleles were identified. Alleles #1 and #2 differed only at two nucleotide positions, while they both differed from allele #3 at 11 nucleotide positions.
