The current classification system for the recognition of taxonomic ranks among fungi,
especially at high-ranking level, is subjective. With the development of molecular …

The history of assigning ranks to fungi, as well as the relative importance of using
divergence time estimates is reviewed. The paper pays tribute to the major mycological …

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 …

Numerous new taxa and classifications of Dothideomycetes have been published following
the last monograph of families of Dothideomycetes in 2013. A recent publication by …

Inaccurate taxonomic placement of fossils can lead to the accumulation of errors in
molecular clock studies and their generated evolutionary lineages. There are limited fossil …

The previous phylogenies of Sordariomycetes by ME Barr, OE Eriksson and DL
Hawksworth, and T. Lumbsch and S. Huhndorf, were mainly based on morphology and thus …

This paper provides recommendations of one name for use among pleomorphic genera in
Dothideomycetes by the Working Group on Dothideomycetes established under the …

The class Dothideomycetes is the largest and most ecologically diverse class of fungi,
comprising endophytes, epiphytes, saprobes, human and plant pathogens, lichens, and …

The species is one of the basic units of biological classification. Both species concepts and
recognition are essential topics in taxonomic studies and other biological research. In the …

Establishing the dates for the origin and main diversification events in the phylogeny of
Ascomycota is among the most crucial remaining goals in understanding the evolution of …
