The plasmodiophores[1] (also known as plasmophorids[2] or plasmodiophorids[3]) are a group of obligate endoparasitic protists belonging to the subphylum Endomyxa in Cercozoa.[4] Taxonomically, they are united under a single family Plasmodiophoridae, order Plasmodiophorida, sister to the phagomyxids.[5]

Ecology and pathology

Plasmodiophores are pathogenic for a wide range of organisms, but mainly green plants. The more commonly recognized are agents of plant diseases such as clubroot, powdery scab and crook root of watercress,[6] or vectors for viruses that infect beets, peanut, monocots and potatoes, such as the potato mop-top virus or the beet necrotic yellow vein virus.[7][8]

Taxonomy

History

The plasmodiophores have historically been regarded as Fungi. The first description of plasmodiophores as a taxonomic group was in 1885 by Zopf, who united two genera Plasmodiophora and Tetramyxa in a common family “Plasmodiophoreæ”, inside the group “Monadineæ”, as part of the division Myxomycetes. The family was renamed “Plasmodiophoraceae” in 1888 by Berlese.[9] In 1892, Engler placed the family in its own class “Plasmodiophorales”, later renamed “Plasmodiophoromycetes” to fit nomenclature standards.[10]

In 1969 Whittaker, in his five-kingdom system, elevated the group to a separate phylum “Plasmodiophoromycota”, acknowledging them as protists instead of fungi.[1]

In 1993 Cavalier-Smith included the plasmodiophores and their sister group Phagomyxida in their current class, Phytomyxea, as part of a polyphyletic phylum called Opalozoa, which at the time contained a diverse assemblage of unrelated zooflagellates, opalines and proteomyxids.[11] Eventually this phylum was discarded, and the name Opalozoa was modified to label a group inside the phylum Bigyra containing the opalines, bicosoecids and related organisms.[12]

Finally, after phylogenetic analyses, in 2002 Cavalier-Smith placed all Phytomyxea, including plasmodiophores, in the subphylum Endomyxa, inside the rhizarian phylum Cercozoa.[13][14]

Classification

The number of genera varies between sources. There are three accepted genera in the group according to the WoRMS register: Plasmodiophora, Spongospora and Tetramyxa.[15] Below is a complete list with genera that are not included in the register but appear in relevant sources:[3][16][17]

  • Ligniera R. Maire & A. Tison 1911 (=Anisomyxa Nemec 1913; Rhizomyxa Borzí 1884; Sorolpidium B. Nĕmec 1911)
  • Membranosorus C.H. Ostenfeld & H.E. Petersen 1930
  • Octomyxa J.N. Couch J. Leitner & A. Whiffen 1939
  • Polymyxa G.A. Ledingham 1939
  • Plasmodiophora Woronin 1877 (=Ostenfeldiella Ferdinandsen & Winge 1914)
  • Sorodiscus G. Lagerheim & Ø. Winge 1912
  • Sorosphaerula J. Schröt. 1886 (as Sorosphaera) nom. nov. Neuhauser & Kirchmair 2011[18] (=Tuburcinia E.M. Fries; Sorosporium F. Rudolphi 1829)
  • Spongospora Brunch. 1887 (=Clathrosorus C. Ferdinandson & Ö. Winge 1920)
  • Tetramyxa K. Goebel 1884 (=Molliardia R. Maire & A. Tison 1911; Thecaphora W. A. Setchell 1924)
  • Woronina Cornu 1872

These genera were once considered plasmodiophores[19] until they were excluded:[17]

  • Cystospora J.E. Elliott 1916 – possibly a physiological symptom.
  • Frankiella Maire & A. Tison 1909 – synonym of the bacteria Frankia.
  • Peltomyces L. Léger 1909 – excluded as unclassifiable.
  • Pyrrhosorus H. O. Juel 1901 – considered Labyrinthulida incertae sedis.[20]
  • Sporomyxa L. Léger 1907 – excluded as unclassifiable.
  • Trematophlyctis Patouillard 1918 – a chytrid fungus.[21]
