Transposable elements (TEs) are a major source of genetic and regulatory variation in their
host genome and are consequently thought to play important roles in evolution. Many fungal …

Abstract Article 59.1, of the International Code of Nomenclature for Algae, Fungi, and Plants
(ICN; Melbourne Code), which addresses the nomenclature of pleomorphic fungi, became …

The concept of the species 'pan-genome', the union of 'core'conserved genes and all
'accessory'non-conserved genes across all strains of a species, was first proposed in …

The genus Trichoderma contains fungi with high relevance for humans, with applications in
enzyme production for plant cell wall degradation and use in biocontrol. Here, we provide a …

Background Pyrenophora teres f. teres is a necrotrophic fungal pathogen and the cause of
one of barley's most important diseases, net form of net blotch. Here we report the first …

Fungi contain a remarkable range of metabolic pathways, sometimes encoded by gene
clusters, enabling them to digest most organic matter and synthesize an array of potent small …

Abstract FungiDB (http://FungiDB. org) is a functional genomic resource for pan-fungal
genomes that was developed in partnership with the Eukaryotic Pathogen Bioinformatic …

Smut fungi are well-suited to investigate the ecology and evolution of plant pathogens, as
they are strictly biotrophic, yet cultivable on media. Here we report the genome sequence of …

Recently many fungal genes have been identified that, when disrupted, result in strains with
a reduction or total loss of disease symptoms. Such pathogenicity genes are the subject of …

The most frequently encountered symbiont on tree roots is the ascomycete Cenococcum
geophilum, the only mycorrhizal species within the largest fungal class Dothideomycetes, a …
