Journal ArticleDOI
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
TL;DR: The ecologically and economically important arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, crucial in the ecology and physiology of land plants, and the endocytobiotic fungus, Geosiphon pyriformis, are phylogenetically analysed by their small subunit (SSU) rRNA gene sequences and placed into a new monophyletic phylum, the Glomeromycota.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: A modified technique for staining roots to detect VA mycorrhizas is described and success has been achieved with angiosperm, fern, lycopod and psilophyte roots and bryophyte.

1,545 citations

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: The number of known species of fungi is estimated as at least 74 K, but could be as much as 120 K with allowances for ‘orphaned’ species as discussed by the authors, which is the current working hypothesis for the number of fungi on Earth.

1,444 citations

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: The number of known species in the world is conservatively estimated at 1·5 million; six-times higher than hitherto suggested; this realization has major implications for systematic manpower, resources, and classification.
