A review is provided of the current state of understanding of Colletotrichum systematics,
focusing on species-level data and the major clades. The taxonomic placement of the genus …

Novel high‐throughput sequencing methods outperform earlier approaches in terms of
resolution and magnitude. They enable identification and relative quantification of …

True fungi (Fungi) and fungus-like organisms (eg Mycetozoa, Oomycota) constitute the
second largest group of organisms based on global richness estimates, with around 3 …

Six DNA regions were evaluated as potential DNA barcodes for Fungi, the second largest
kingdom of eukaryotic life, by a multinational, multilaboratory consortium. The region of the …

Fusarium ranks as one of the world's most economically destructive and species-rich groups
of mycotoxigenic plant pathogens (Aoki et al. 2014). These ubiquitous molds produce a …

The human body is home to a complex and diverse microbial ecosystem that plays a central
role in host health. This includes a diversity of fungal species that is collectively referred to …

DNA phylogenetic comparisons have shown that morphology-based species recognition
often underestimates fungal diversity. Therefore, the need for accurate DNA sequence data …

Abstract The nuclear ribosomal Internal Transcribed Spacer ITS region is widely used as a
DNA metabarcoding marker to characterize the diversity and composition of fungal …

Although only recently described, Colletotrichum boninense is well established in literature
as an anthracnose pathogen or endophyte of a diverse range of host plants worldwide. It is …

We surveyed endophytic fungal communities in leaves of a single tree species
(Metrosideros polymorpha) across wide environmental gradients (500–5,500 mm of rain/y; …
