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 …

In colony collapse disorder (CCD), honey bee colonies inexplicably lose their workers. CCD
has resulted in a loss of 50 to 90% of colonies in beekeeping operations across the United …

The ancestors of fungi are believed to be simple aquatic forms with flagellated spores,
similar to members of the extant phylum Chytridiomycota (chytrids). Current classifications …

… However, Harrington and Rizzo did not include several recent fungal studies that have
used PSR based on the concordance of gene genealogies to diagnose species (Geiser et al., …

One of the greatest impediments to the study of Fusarium has been the incorrect and confused
application of species names to toxigenic and pathogenic isolates, owing in large part to …

The colonization of land by eukaryotes probably was facilitated by a partnership (symbiosis)
between a photosynthesizing organism (phototroph) and a fungus. However, the time when …

We present a 6-gene, 420-species maximum-likelihood phylogeny of Ascomycota, the largest
phylum of Fungi. This analysis is the most taxonomically complete to date with species …

Fusarium is a genus of filamentous fungi that contains many agronomically important plant
pathogens, mycotoxin producers, and opportunistic human pathogens. Comparative …

Species limits were investigated within the Fusarium graminearum clade (Fg clade) through
phylogenetic analyses of DNA sequences from portions of 11 nuclear genes including the …

Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformation (ATMT) has long been used to transfer
genes to a wide variety of plants and has also served as an efficient tool for insertional …
