Public Note:
From same location as a NW record by Jon Sullivan. Showing chasmothecia. Basal mycelial pad eventually goes yellow. Chasmothecia up to 400um in diameter. Sequence confirms this is not G. fischeri and is N. kerribeensis described 2010 on native Senecio. So, is this a recent introduction, or was our senecio mildew actually this, and only jus started producing chasmothecia?
