Fungi are major ecological players in both terrestrial and aquatic environments by cycling
organic matter and channelling nutrients across trophic levels. High-throughput sequencing …

In this review, we discuss the current status and future challenges for fully elucidating the
fungal tree of life. In the last 15 years, advances in genomic technologies have …

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 …

Environmental DNA (eDNA) refers to DNA that can be extracted from environmental
samples (such as soil, water, feces, or air) without the prior isolation of any target organism …

The fungal kingdom comprises a hyperdiverse clade of heterotrophic eukaryotes
characterized by the presence of a chitinous cell wall, the loss of phagotrophic capabilities …

Fungi are phylogenetically and functionally diverse ubiquitous components of almost all
ecosystems on Earth, including aquatic environments stretching from high montane lakes …

Fungi are a highly diverse group of heterotrophic eukaryotes characterized by the absence
of phagotrophy and the presence of a chitinous cell wall. While unicellular fungi are far from …

Plastic debris has been accumulating in the marine realm since the start of plastic mass
production in the 1950s. Due to the adverse effects on ocean life, the fate of plastics in the …

Abstract Index Fungorum, Species Fungorum and MycoBank are the key fungal
nomenclature and taxonomic databases that can be sourced to find taxonomic details …

High animal and plant richness in tropical rainforest communities has long intrigued
naturalists. It is unknown if similar hyperdiversity patterns are reflected at the microbial scale …
