The 2016 classification of lichenized fungi in the Ascomycota and Basidiomycota – Approaching one thousand genera (2016, background): “Phylogenetic evidence suggests that lichenization evolved several times independently in both Ascomycota and Basidiomycota (Hodkinson et al. 2014; Lawrey et al. 2009; Lumbsch & Rikkinen 2016; Nelsen et al. 2009, 2011a; Prieto et al. 2013; Schoch et al. 2009).”
Myconet Volume 14. Part One. Outline of Ascomycota—2009. Part Two. Notes on Ascomycete Systematics. Nos. 4751–5113 (2010, methodology): “The family fits in the large Pleosporales s.l., as recovered in a phylogeny derived from five genes: nucSSU, nucLSU rDNA, tef1, rpb1, and rpb2 (Schoch et al., 2009a).”
The genus Cladosporium (2012, background): “Based on comprehensive molecular sequence analyses and morphological re-assessments, Braun et al. (2003), Crous et al. (2006, 2007b–d), Schubert et al. (2007a) and Seifert et al. (2004, 2007), revised various parts of the heterogeneous complex of cladosporioid hyphomycetes, demonstrating that numero”
The Multiple Origins of Complex Multicellularity (2011, methodology): “For fungi, we have good phylogenies (e.g., Schoch et al. 2009), molecular clocks (Lücking et al. 2009), and a wealth of genomic data; although, with the exception of the cup fungus Coprinopsis cinerea (Stajich et al. 2010), genomes focus on yeasts and other simple species.”
Nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region as a universal DNA barcode marker for Fungi (2012, background): “For Ascomycota (including mold genera such as Aspergillus), they are generally superior to rRNA genes for resolving relationships at various taxonomic levels (29).”
Refined families of Sordariomycetes (2020, background): “With emphasis on combined ITS-LSU analyses and morphological similarities the clade was introduced as a family Pseudomassariaceae in Senanayake et al. (2015). Maharachchikumbura et al.”
Refined families of Dothideomycetes: Dothideomycetidae and Pleosporomycetidae (2020, methodology): “Subsequently, researchers concluded that it should be a true pleosporalean fungus with functionally unitunicate asci, and retained it in Pleosporales (Luttrell 1975, Aptroot 1995, Rossman et al. 1999, Kruys et al. 2006, Schoch et al. 2009a, Zhang et al. 2012b).”
Lignicolous freshwater fungi from China II: Novel Distoseptispora (Distoseptisporaceae) species from northwestern Yunnan Province and a suggested unified method for studying lignicolous freshwater fungi (2018, background): “Additionally, protein-coding genes are widely used in mycology for phylogenetic analyses or species identification as they are generally superior to rRNA genes for resolving relationships at various taxonomic levels (Schoch et al. 2009, Maharachchikumbura et al. 2016).”
Families of Dothideomycetes (2013, background): “…2001; Liu and Hall 2004), although several lineages previously assigned to that group, such as the Pyrenulales and Verrucariales , are now classified in subclass Chaetothyriomycetidae, class Eurotiomycetes (Lutzoni et al. 2004; Schmitt et al. 2005; Hibbett et al. 2007; Schoch et al. 2009a, b).”
