An improved protocol, including DNA extraction with Chelex, two amplifications with a nested primer set, and DNA purification by electrophoresis, made it possible to analyze nuclear rDNA sequences of powdery mildew fungi using at most several hundred conidia or 20 cleistothecia. Nucleotide sequence diversity of the nuclear rDNA region containing the two internal transcribed spacers (ITS1 and ITS2) and 5.8S rRNA gene derived from conidia and cleistothecia was investigated for four kinds of powdery mildew fungi including two isolates of the same species. The results showed that the nucleotide sequences of the nuclear rDNA region were highly conserved between the teleomorph and the anamorph. Thus, the nucleotide sequence data obtained from either developmental stage can be used for phylogenetic studies of powdery mildew fungi. The nucleotide sequences of the 5.8S rRNA genes of the four species were highly conserved, but those of their ITS regions were variable. This suggests that the nuclear rDNA region is not suitable for phylogenetic studies of distantly related powdery mildew fungi, because too much sequence diversity exists within the ITS, end too little phylogenetic information is contained within the 5.8S rRNA gene. However, the ITS region will be useful for phylogenetic comparison of closely related species or intraspecies.
