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.

TL;DR: For each genus, the authority, the date of publication, status, systematic position, number of accepted species, distribution, and key references are given.

TL;DR: MycoBank as discussed by the authors is an on-line database of mycological nomenclatural novelties and their associated descriptions and illustrations, which is used to check the validity, legitimacy and linguistic correctness of the proposed names, and to provide onward links to other databases containing living cultures, DNA data, reference specimens and pleomorphic names linked to the same holomorph.

TL;DR: GenBank, the public repository for nucleotide and protein sequences, is a critical resource for molecular biology, evolutionary biology, and ecology as discussed by the authors, and some attention has been drawn to sequence errors ([1][1]), common annotation errors also reduce the value of this database.
