Journal ArticleDOI

A higher-level phylogenetic classification of the Fungi

David S. Hibbett, +66 more
- 01 May 2007 - 
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

Reconstructing the early evolution of Fungi using a six-gene phylogeny

Timothy Y. James, +75 more
- 19 Oct 2006 - 
TL;DR: It is indicated that there may have been at least four independent losses of the flagellum in the kingdom Fungi, and the enigmatic microsporidia seem to be derived from an endoparasitic chytrid ancestor similar to Rozella allomycis, on the earliest diverging branch of the fungal phylogenetic tree.
Journal ArticleDOI

The paleozoic origin of enzymatic lignin decomposition reconstructed from 31 fungal genomes

Dimitrios Floudas, +70 more
- 29 Jun 2012 - 
TL;DR: Comparative analyses of 31 fungal genomes suggest that lignin-degrading peroxidases expanded in the lineage leading to the ancestor of the Agaricomycetes, which is reconstructed as a white rot species, and then contracted in parallel lineages leading to brown rot and mycorrhizal species.
Journal ArticleDOI

Assembling the fungal tree of life: progress, classification, and evolution of subcellular traits

TL;DR: This study provides a phylogenetic synthesis for the Fungi and a framework for future phylogenetic studies on fungi and the impact of this newly discovered phylogenetic structure on supraordinal classifications is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Plant Cell Wall–Decomposing Machinery Underlies the Functional Diversity of Forest Fungi

TL;DR: Fungal nutritional mode diversification suggests that the boreal forest biome originated via genetic coevolution of above- and below-ground biota through convergent evolution and divergence among fungal decomposers.
