RNA reveals a succession of active fungi during the decay of Norway spruce logs

TL;DR: This work investigated the changing community of metabolically active fungi during the decomposition of fallen Picea abies logs by directly extracting and barcode sequencing precursor rRNA and compared rRNA-derived amplicons of the 18S and ITS regions in 21 isolates.
Journal ArticleDOI

Taxonomy and phylogeny of the xerophilic genus Wallemia (Wallemiomycetes and Wallemiales, cl. et ord. nov.)

TL;DR: Tests on xerotolerance indicated that Wallemia presents one of the most xerophilic fungal taxa, and a new basidiomycetous class Wallemiomycets covering an order Wallemiales is proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rapid Identification of Candida Species with Species-Specific DNA Probes

TL;DR: This method is simple, rapid, and feasible for identifying Candida species in clinical laboratories that utilize molecular identification techniques and provides a novel method to differentiate the new species, C. dubliniensis, from C. albicans.
Journal ArticleDOI

Six monophyletic lineages identified within Cryptococcus neoformans and Cryptococcus gattii by multi-locus sequence typing.

TL;DR: Four monophyletic lineages corresponding to the previously described genotypic groups were consistently found within C. gattii, indicating that these lineages should be considered different taxa as well.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification and characterization of benzimidazole resistance in Monilinia fructicola from stone fruit orchards in California

TL;DR: Low and high levels of resistance to the benzimidazole fungicides benomyl and thiophanate-methyl were observed in field isolates of Monilinia fructicola, which is the causative agent of brown rot of stone fruit.

Rapid determination of 16S ribosomal RNA sequences for phylogenetic analyses

TL;DR: A protocol is described for rapidly generating large blocks of 16S rRNA sequence data without isolation of the 16 S rRNA or cloning of its gene, and its phylogenetic usefulness is evaluated by examination of several 17S rRNAs whose gene sequences are known.
Journal ArticleDOI

The characterization of enzymatically amplified eukaryotic 16S-like rRNA-coding regions.

TL;DR: Oligodeoxynucleotides that are complementary to conserved regions at the 5' and 3' termini of eukaryotic 16S-like rRNAs were used to prime DNA synthesis in repetitive cycles of denaturation, reannealing, and DNA synthesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Compilation of small ribosomal subunit RNA sequences

TL;DR: The set of 452 different sequences comprises all sequences that to the authors' knowledge had been published or were available from the sequence library file servers as of December 1, 1990, and that are either complete or cover a minimum of about 70% of the complete sequence.
Journal ArticleDOI

Archaebacterial phylogeny: Perspectives on the Urkingdoms*

TL;DR: By 16S rRNA sequence measure the archaebacteria constitute a phylogenetically coherent grouping (clade), which excludes both the eubacteria and the eukaryotes--a conclusion that is supported by other sequence evidence as well.
