Nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region as a universal DNA barcode marker for Fungi

Conrad L. Schoch, +160 more
TL;DR: Among the regions of the ribosomal cistron, the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region has the highest probability of successful identification for the broadest range of fungi, with the most clearly defined barcode gap between inter- and intraspecific variation.
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

Fungal Community Analysis by Large-Scale Sequencing of Environmental Samples

TL;DR: The high rate at which new sequence types were recovered even after sampling 863 fungal ITS sequences and the dominance of fungi in the authors' libraries relative to other eukaryotes suggest that the abundance and diversity of fungiIn forest soils may be much higher than previously hypothesized.
