[HTML][HTML] Lineages of ectomycorrhizal fungi revisited: foraging strategies and novel lineages revealed by sequences from belowground
L Tedersoo, ME Smith - Fungal biology reviews, 2013 - Elsevier
In the fungal kingdom, the ectomycorrhizal (EcM) symbiosis has evolved independently in
multiple groups that are referred to as lineages. A growing number of molecular studies in …

The numbers of fungi: is the descriptive curve flattening?
The recent realistic estimate of fungal numbers which used various algorithms was between
2.2 and 3.8 million. There are nearly 100,000 accepted species of Fungi and fungus-like …

Extensive sampling of basidiomycete genomes demonstrates inadequacy of the white-rot/brown-rot paradigm for wood decay fungi
Basidiomycota (basidiomycetes) make up 32% of the described fungi and include most
wood-decaying species, as well as pathogens and mutualistic symbionts. Wood-decaying …

The Paleozoic origin of enzymatic lignin decomposition reconstructed from 31 fungal genomes
D Floudas, M Binder, R Riley, K Barry, RA Blanchette… - Science, 2012 - science.org
Wood is a major pool of organic carbon that is highly resistant to decay, owing largely to the
presence of lignin. The only organisms capable of substantial lignin decay are white rot …

A revised family-level classification of the Polyporales (Basidiomycota)
A Justo, O Miettinen, D Floudas, B Ortiz-Santana… - Fungal biology, 2017 - Elsevier
Polyporales is strongly supported as a clade of Agaricomycetes, but the lack of a consensus
higher-level classification within the group is a barrier to further taxonomic revision. We …
