Fungi play vital roles in ecosystems as endophytes, pathogens and saprobes. The current
estimate of fungal diversity is highly uncertain, ranging from 1.5 to 12 million, but only …

The Basidiomycota constitutes a major phylum of the kingdom Fungi and is second in
species numbers to the Ascomycota. The present work provides an overview of all validly …

Plant–microbe symbioses span a continuum from pathogenic to mutualistic, with functional
consequences for both organisms in the symbiosis. In order to increase sustainable food …

Research on mycorrhizal symbiosis has been slowed by a lack of established study
systems. To address this challenge, we have been developing Suillus, a widespread …

Forest soils harbor hyper-diverse microbial communities which fundamentally regulate
carbon and nutrient cycling across the globe. Directly testing hypotheses on how …

The global diversity of fungi has been estimated between 2 to 11 million species, of which
only about 155 000 have been named. Most fungi are invisible to the unaided eye, but they …

红菇属乳菇状亚组Russula subsect. Lactarioideae 是一个形态特征较明显的类群,
亚属内部分种类被认为是复合种. 在对我国红菇属乳菇状亚组进行的分类学研究中, 发现了3 …

The biogeography of neotropical fungi remains poorly understood. Here, we reconstruct the
origins and diversification of neotropical lineages in one of the largest clades of …

Soil fungi, especially the functional guilds of saprotrophs and symbiotrophs, play a central
role in ecosystem processes such as decomposition and plant nutrient acquisition. Fungal …

Since 2007, the quality of Russula descriptions has improved and the use of molecular
support for species delimitation and the number of published new species has increased …
