Two new genera of Magnaporthaceae (Magnaporthales, Sordariomycetes) associated with switchgrass from the serpentine barrens ecosystem
, indicating their phytotoxicity potential on plants. These findings expand our knowledge on the microbiota associated with switchgrass, an emerging biofuel crop, and contribute to the study of systematics, diversity, and function of Magnaporthaceae.
