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. …

How to publish a new fungal species, or name, version 3.0.
It is now a decade since (ICTF) produced an overview of requirements and best practices for describing a new fungal species. In the meantime the (ICNafp) has changed from its former name (the ) and introduced new formal requirements for valid publication of species scientific names, including the separation of... -

Setting scientific names at all taxonomic ranks in italics facilitates their quick recognition in scientific papers
It is common practice in scientific journals to print genus and species names in italics. This is not only historical as species names were traditionally derived from Greek or Latin. Importantly, it also facilitates the rapid recognition of genus and species names when skimming through manuscripts. However, names above the...Thines, Marco ; Aoki, Takayuki ; Crous, Pedro W. ; Hyde, Kevin D. ; Lücking, Robert …

Unambiguous identification of fungi: where do we stand and how accurate and precise is fungal DNA barcoding?
True fungi (Fungi) and fungus-like organisms (e.g. Mycetozoa, Oomycota) constitute the second largest group of organisms based on global richness estimates, with around 3 million predicted species. Compared to plants and animals, fungi have simple body plans with often morphologically and ecologically obscure structures. This poses challenges for accurate and...
