The Venturiales is an order in the fungal class Dothideomycetes.

Overview

[edit]

Members of the order Venturiales are widely distributed. These include parasites and saprobes as well as pathogens of humans, animals, and plants.[1][2] Members of the family Venturiaceae compose about 80% of all Venturiales.[1]

Life cycle

[edit]

The asexual life cycle of Venturiales involves the penetration of the cuticle of the host species, and then expanding into the immediately subcuticular tissue before conidiation.[3]
