Biodiversity loss from disturbances caused by human activities means that species are
disappearing at an ever increasing rate. The high number of species that have yet to be …

In forest ecosystems, ectomycorrhizal and saprotrophic fungi play a central role in the
breakdown of soil organic matter (SOM). Competition between these two fungal guilds has …

Abstract Index Fungorum, Species Fungorum and MycoBank are the key fungal
nomenclature and taxonomic databases that can be sourced to find taxonomic details …

We constructed nine sets of oligonucleotide primers on the basis of the results of DNA
hybridization of cloned genes from Neurospora crassa and Aspergillus nidulans to the …

Here, the coevolution of mycorrhizal fungi and roots is assessed in the light of evidence now
available, from palaeobotanical and morphological studies and the analysis of DNA‐based …

The colonization of land by plants appears to have coincided with the appearance of
mycorrhiza-like fungi. Over evolutionary time, fungi have maintained their prominent role in …

Phylogenetic species recognition and species concepts in fungi. Fungal Genetics and
Biology 31, 000–000. The operational species concept, ie, the one used to recognize …

This new edition of the universally acclaimed and widely-used textbook on fungal biology
has been completely re-written, drawing directly on the authors' research and teaching …

Phylogenetic relationships of the phyto-pathogenic Gibberella fujikuroi species complex
were investigated by maximum parsimony analysis of DNA sequences from multiple loci …

Based on an overview of progress in molecular systematics of the true fungi
(Fungi/Eumycota) since 1990, little overlap was found among single‐locus data matrices …
