DNA barcoding of fungal specimens using PacBio long‐read high‐throughput sequencing

TL;DR: It is concluded that multiplex DNA barcoding of the fungal ITS and LSU markers using PacBio HTS is a useful tool for taxonomic identification of large amounts of collected voucher specimens at a competitive price.
Journal ArticleDOI

Red List of Estonian Fungi – 2019 update

TL;DR: In 2019, the conservation status of 214 fungal species in Estonia was assessed according to IUCN criteria and an IUC N category was assigned to each taxon as mentioned in this paper, and 94 species were categorized as threatened (CR, EN, VU), 42 least concern (LC), 60 near threatened (NT), three regionally extinct (RE), and six as data deficient (DD).

Journal ArticleDOI

Mycorrhizal colonization of half-high blueberry cultivars influenced by cultural practices

TL;DR: The results indicate that mycorrhizal colonization was significantly higher on roots of cultivar Northblue, and using of plastic mulch in plantation increased my Corrhizae colonization, both of which were significantly higher than expected.
