TL;DR: All fungal species represented by at least two ITS sequences in the international nucleotide sequence databases are now given a unique, stable name of the accession number type, and the term ‘species hypothesis’ (SH) is introduced for the taxa discovered in clustering on different similarity thresholds.

TL;DR: It is found that soil pH has the strongest effect on the diversity of fungi and its multiple taxonomic and functional groups, and the positive effects of tree diversity on overall fungal richness represent a combined niche effect of soil properties and intimate associations.

TL;DR: The possible effects of co-infection with pathogenic fungi and oomycetes with F. circinatum on the health of pine seedlings and mature plants are described, in an attempt to expand the understanding of the role that biotic interactions may play in the future of PPC disease in European nurseries and forests.

TL;DR: Investigation of the occurrence of H. fraxineus in tissues of local ash species in the Russian Far East and assessment of its population-specific genetic variation by ITS sequencing suggest that the current ash dieback epidemic in Europe might not directly originate from theRussian Far East.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a global warning system with the support of COST Action Global Warning (FP1401), which was supported by COST action global warning (FP 1401), DLM and YB contribution was also supported by the Russian Foundation for Basic Research (FBR), and MG contribution was supported with core financial support from its member countries.
