Nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region as a universal DNA barcode marker for Fungi.
Six DNA regions were evaluated as potential DNA barcodes for , the second largest kingdom of eukaryotic life, by a multinational, multilaboratory consortium. The region of the mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit 1 used as the animal barcode was excluded as a potential marker, because it is difficult to amplify in...Schoch, Conrad L. ; Seifert, Keith A. ; Huhndorf, Sabine ; Robert, Vincent ; Spouge, John L. …

Megaphylogeny resolves global patterns of mushroom evolution
Mushroom-forming fungi (Agaricomycetes) have the greatest morphological diversity and complexity of any group of fungi. They have radiated into most niches and fulfil diverse roles in the ecosystem, including wood decomposers, pathogens or mycorrhizal mutualists. Despite the importance of mushroom-forming fungi, large-scale patterns of their evolutionary history are poorly known,...Varga, Torda ; Krizsán, Krisztina ; Földi, Csenge ; Dima, Bálint ; Sánchez-García, Marisol …
