Abstract
Three endophytic fungal strains were isolated from aquatic plants collected in Jeju. The fungi were identified by sequencing and phylogenetically analyzing their internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions. Consequently, the three strains NNIBRFG2982, NNIBRFG2984 and NNIBRFG 3040 were confirmed as the fungal species Acremonium tubakii, Colletotrichum cliviae and Cylindrocarpon pauciseptatum, respectively, all of which are new to Korea.

The percentage of replicate trees in which the associated taxa clustered together in the bootstrap test (1,000 replicates) are shown next to the branches. Glomerella cingulate was used as outgroup; B, colony on potato dextrose agar at 7 days; C, conidia (scale bar = 10 µm).
