A comprehensive phylogenetic classification of the kingdom Fungi is proposed, with
reference to recent molecular phylogenetic analyses, and with input from diverse members …

The Agaricomycotina contains about one-third of the described species of Fungi, including
mushrooms, jelly fungi and basidiomycetous yeasts. Recent phylogenetic analyses by P …

The Basidiomycota constitutes a major phylum of the kingdom Fungi and is second in
species numbers to the Ascomycota. The present work provides an overview of all validly …

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 …

This revision of the classification of unicellular eukaryotes updates that of Levine et al.(1980)
for the protozoa and expands it to include other protists. Whereas the previous revision was …

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 …

The subphylum Ustilaginomycotina (Basidiomycota, Fungi) comprises mainly plant
pathogenic fungi (smuts). Some of the lineages possess cultivable unicellular stages that …

A phylogeny of the fungal phylum Basidiomycota is presented based on a survey of 160 taxa
and five nuclear genes. Two genes, rpb2, and tef1, are presented in detail. The rpb2 gene is …

As the gall-inducing smut fungus Ustilago maydis colonizes maize (Zea mays) plants, it
secretes a complex effector blend that suppresses host defense responses, including …

What makes a fungus pathogenic? In this review, phylogenetic inference is used to
speculate on the evolution of plant and animal pathogens in the fungal Phylum Ascomycota …
