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

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

Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis gen. et sp. nov., a chytrid pathogenic to amphibians

TL;DR: Batrachochy-type chytridiomycete has been identified as a member of the Chytridiales and its microtubule root has thread-like rhizoids that arise from single or multiple areas on the developing zoo sporangium as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Physiology of Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis, a chytrid pathogen of amphibians

TL;DR: The zoospore activity, physiology and protease production of B. dendrobatidis is investigated to help understand the epidemiology of this pathogen, which is implicated in severe population declines on several continents.
