Forage collection, substrate preparation, and diet composition in fungus‐growing ants (2010, background): “On the other hand, leaf litter generally has a higher diversity of saprophytic fungi and bacteria than fresh leaves (Carlile et al., 2001), but this apparently does not require elaborate cleaning measures by the lower-attine ants M.”
A phylum-level phylogenetic classification of zygomycete fungi based on genome-scale data (2016, background): “…suggesting that while the genetic and metabolic potential for complex thallus diversity did not arise until the MRCA of Mucoromycota and Dikarya, it then resulted in multiple independent origins of complex spore-producing structures involving hyphal differentiation (Stajich et al. 2009).”
How many fungi make sclerotia (2015, background): “Al h, et al., How many fun features such as a hyphal thallus, non-flagellated cells, and the production of spores (Stajich et al., 2009).”
Ionic liquids: a pathway to environmental acceptability. (2011, background): “59 Ascomycota fungal strains were able to tolerate very high concentrations of ionic liquids (0.05 M) with a range of cations: the imidazolium ones were the most toxic, followed by the groups of pyridinium, pyrrolidinium, and piperidinium ionic liquids; cholinium salts were the most benign.”
Use of Filamentous Fungi for Wastewater Treatment and Production of High Value Fungal Byproducts: A Review (2010, background): “A C/N ratio of 10:1 or less ensures biomass high in protein content, whereas a C/N ratio in excess of 50:1 favors the accumulation of alcohols, secondary metabolites, lipids, or extracellular polysaccharides (Carlile & Watkinson, 1994).”
Nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region as a universal DNA barcode marker for Fungi (2012, methodology): “A global alignment was used for these comparisons (1).”
The fungi: 1, 2, 3 ... 5.1 million species? (2011, background): “…that the fl agellum may have been lost several times among the early-diverging fungi and that there is more diversity among early diverging zoosporic and zygosporic lineages than previously realized ( Bowman et al., 1992 ; Blackwell et al., 2006 ; Hibbett et al., 2007 ; Stajich et al., 2009 ).”
The influence of soil properties on the structure of bacterial and fungal communities across land-use types (2008, background): “, 1993) and how shifts from forest to agriculture may influence litter decomposers (Carlile et al., 2001).”
Biodiversity and biogeography of the cacao (Theobroma cacao) pathogen Moniliophthora roreri in tropical America. (2007, positive): “Genetic variation allows pathogens to adapt readily to changing environmental conditions and evolve new pathogenic types quickly in response to enhanced resistance in crops, such as those brought about by advances in crop breeding (Carlile & Watkinson, 1994; Wang & Szmidt, 1998).”
Top 50 most wanted fungi (2016, neutral): “Fungal environmental sequencing (molecular ecology) studies, where some particular environmental habitat or substrate is examined for fungal diversity, span these disciplines in seeking to detail what fungi are present and what their ecological and functional roles are in the system studied.”
Host Specificity of Pathogenic Pythium Species: Implications for Tree Species Diversity (2007, neutral): “…for Tropical Biology and Conservation pathogens, soil microbes are considered at the extreme end of the continuum of host specificity, being relative generalists (Hendrix & Campbell 1983, Martin 1992, Carlisle & Watkinson 1994) and have been called the ‘Jack of all trades’ (Harper 1977).”
The ice nucleation ability of one of the most abundant types of fungal spores found in the atmosphere (2010, neutral): “This mean diameter is consistent with reported diameters for spores ofCladosporium(Carlile et al., 2001; Fr̈ohlich-Nowoisky et al., 2009; Hameed and Khodr, 2001; Jung et al., 2009a; Reponen et al., 1997).”
Fueling the future with fungal genomics (2011, background): “…the sampling strategy of fungal genomics, and access to genomic sequence data has proven to be a watershed event in genome-scale phylogenetic analyses of fungi (Fitzpatrick et al. 2006; Robbertse et al. 2006; Stajich et al. 2009), the majority of the early diverging lineages lack any genome data.”
One stop shop: backbones trees for important phytopathogenic genera: I (2014) (2014, background): “Most of the ca. 100,000 described species of fungi are associated with plants through interactions including symbiosis, endophytism, saprotrophy and parasitism (Stajich et al. 2009; Delaye et al. 2013; Persoh 2013; Hyde et al. 2013b).”
Impact of DNA sequence-data on the taxonomy of anamorphic fungi (2007, background): “Fungi are now recognised as entirely distinct from the Kingdom Plantae and classified in a separate Kingdom, Fungi (Whittaker, 1969; Carlile and Watkinson, 1994; Cavalier-Smith, 1998, 2001; Hibbett et al., 2007).”
