The first genome sequenced of a eukaryotic organism was for Saccharomyces cerevisiae,
as reported in 1996, but it was more than 10 years before any of the zygomycete fungi …

The most studied plant–fungal symbioses to date are the interactions between plants and
arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi of the Glomeromycotina clade. Advancements in …

Mucormycoses are emerging fungal infections caused by a variety of heterogeneous
species within the Mucorales order. Among the Mucor species complex, Mucor circinelloides …

Metarhizium species interact with plants, insects, and microbes within a diffuse
coevolutionary framework that benefits soil health, biodiversity, and plant growth. The insect …

Despite over a century of observations, the obligate insect parasites within the order
Entomophthorales remain poorly characterized at the genetic level. In this manuscript, we …

Fungi have evolved over millions of years and their species diversity is predicted to be the
second largest on the earth. Fungi have cross-kingdom interactions with many organisms …

Improved sequencing technologies have profoundly altered global views of fungal diversity
and evolution. High-throughput sequencing methods are critical for studying fungi due to the …

Diverse members of early-diverging Mucoromycota, including mycorrhizal taxa and soil-
associated Mortierellaceae, are known to harbor Mollicutes-related endobacteria (MRE). It …

The Periconia fungal genus belongs to the phylum Ascomycota, order Pleosporales, family
Periconiaceae. Periconia are found in many habitats, but little is known about their ecology …

The model moss species Physcomitrium patens has long been used for studying divergence
of land plants spanning from bryophytes to angiosperms. In addition to its phylogenetic …
