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

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

Revisions to the Classification, Nomenclature, and Diversity of Eukaryotes

Sina M. Adl, +52 more
TL;DR: It is confirmed that eukaryotes form at least two domains, the loss of monophyly in the Excavata, robust support for the Haptista and Cryptista, and suggested primer sets for DNA sequences from environmental samples that are effective for each clade are provided.
Journal ArticleDOI

Finding needles in haystacks: Linking scientific names, reference specimens and molecular data for Fungi

Conrad L. Schoch, +101 more
- 30 Jun 2014 - 
TL;DR: A set of standards and protocols are proposed to improve the data quality of new sequences, and it is suggested how type and other reference sequences can be used to improve identification of Fungi.
