Genome-scale data and the development of novel statistical phylogenetic approaches have
greatly aided the reconstruction of a broad sketch of the tree of life and resolved many of its …

Reconstructing the tree of life remains a central goal in biology. Early methods, which relied
on small numbers of morphological or genetic characters, often yielded conflicting …

Hybridisation is a common event in yeasts often leading to genomic variability and
adaptation. The yeast Candida orthopsilosis is a human-associated opportunistic pathogen …

Cross-species gene transfer is often associated with bacteria, which have evolved several
mechanisms that facilitate horizontal DNA exchange. However, the increased availability of …

How organisms respond to environmental stress is a key topic in evolutionary biology. This
study focused on the genomic evolution of Laburnicola rhizohalophila, a dark-septate …

Aspergillus fumigatus is a pathogenic fungus with a global distribution. The emergence of
azole-resistant A. fumigatus (AR Af) other than the TR-mutants is a problem in Japan …

Cryptic fungal pathogens pose disease management challenges due to their morphological
resemblance to known pathogens. Here, we investigated the genomes and phenotypes of …
