TL;DR: Comparative analyses of 31 fungal genomes suggest that lignin-degrading peroxidases expanded in the lineage leading to the ancestor of the Agaricomycetes, which is reconstructed as a white rot species, and then contracted in parallel lineages leading to brown rot and mycorrhizal species.

TL;DR: The genome of M. graminicola was sequenced completely and found that it contained very few genes for enzymes that break down plant cell walls, which was more similar to endophytes than to pathogens, which may have evolved from endophytic ancestors.

TL;DR: Fungal nutritional mode diversification suggests that the boreal forest biome originated via genetic coevolution of above- and below-ground biota through convergent evolution and divergence among fungal decomposers.

TL;DR: In this article, a comparative genomics and experimental study of the aspergilli genus is presented, which allows for the first time a genus-wide view of the biological diversity of the Aspergillus and in many, but not all, cases linked genome differences to phenotype.
