Journal ArticleDOI

A higher-level phylogenetic classification of the Fungi

David S. Hibbett, +66 more
- 01 May 2007 - 
TL;DR: A comprehensive phylogenetic classification of the kingdom Fungi is proposed, with reference to recent molecular phylogenetic analyses, and with input from diverse members of the fungal taxonomic community.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phylogenetic Species Recognition and Species Concepts in Fungi

TL;DR: A phylogenetic approach to recognize fungal species based on concordance of multiple gene genealogies is compared to those based on morphology and reproductive behavior.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reconstructing the early evolution of Fungi using a six-gene phylogeny

Timothy Y. James, +75 more
- 19 Oct 2006 - 
TL;DR: It is indicated that there may have been at least four independent losses of the flagellum in the kingdom Fungi, and the enigmatic microsporidia seem to be derived from an endoparasitic chytrid ancestor similar to Rozella allomycis, on the earliest diverging branch of the fungal phylogenetic tree.
Journal ArticleDOI

The paleozoic origin of enzymatic lignin decomposition reconstructed from 31 fungal genomes

Dimitrios Floudas, +70 more
- 29 Jun 2012 - 
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.
Journal ArticleDOI

Convergent losses of decay mechanisms and rapid turnover of symbiosis genes in mycorrhizal mutualists.

Annegret Kohler, +62 more
- 01 Apr 2015 - 
TL;DR: Convergent evolution of the mycorrhizal habit in fungi occurred via the repeated evolution of a 'symbiosis toolkit', with reduced numbers of PCWDEs and lineage-specific suites of myCorrhiza-induced genes.
