In this review on fungal speciation, we first contrast the issues of species definition and
species criteria and show that by distinguishing the two concepts the approaches to studying …

In populations of facultatively sexual organisms, the proportion of sexually produced
offspring contributed to each generation is a critical determinant of their evolutionary …

The phylogenetic relationship of the asexual mycorrhizal fungusCenococcum geophilumFr.
among sexual ascomycetes was examined by phylogenetic analysis of nucleotide sequence …

The ectomycorrhizal fungus Hebeloma velutipes consists of two biological species (BSP 16
and 17). Within BSP 17 a dikaryon was found with two divergent types of the ribosomal …

Recombination has an impact on genome evolution by maintaining chromosomal integrity,
affecting the efficacy of selection, and increasing genetic variability in populations …

Inherent incompatibilities between genetic components from genomes of different species
may cause intrinsic reproductive isolation. In evolution experiments designed to instigate …

The genetic structure of five Fennoscandian populations of the threatened wood-decay
fungus Fomitopsis rosea (Basidiomycota) was investigated using codominant PCR–RFLP …

Seedlings of Abies grandis (Dougl.) Lindl.(grand fir), Lithocarpus densiflora (Hook. & Arn.)
Rehd.(tanoak), Pinus ponderosa Dougl. ex Laws.(ponderosa pine), Pseudotsuga menziesii …

The fungal genus Coccidioides is composed of two species, Coccidioides immitis and
Coccidioides posadasii. These two species are the causal agents of coccidioidomycosis, a …

This paper examines fungal succession among ectomycorrhiza-forming fungi by reviewing
several studies. The first group of studies confirmed that common nursery fungi were …
