The fungal kingdom comprises a hyperdiverse clade of heterotrophic eukaryotes
characterized by the presence of a chitinous cell wall, the loss of phagotrophic capabilities …

Fungi are phylogenetically and functionally diverse ubiquitous components of almost all
ecosystems on Earth, including aquatic environments stretching from high montane lakes …

This article provides an outline of the classification of the kingdom Fungi (including fossil
fungi. ie dispersed spores, mycelia, sporophores, mycorrhizas). We treat 19 phyla of fungi …

High-throughput sequencing studies generate vast amounts of taxonomic data. Evolutionary

Microsporidia are obligate intracellular pathogens related to Fungi. These organisms have a
unique invasion organelle, the polar tube, which upon appropriate environmental …

Intensification of food production has the potential to drive increased disease prevalence in
food plants and animals. Microsporidia are diversely distributed, opportunistic, and density …

Microsporidia are obligate intracellular parasites that can infect a wide range of hosts. They
cause death and disease in both humans and agriculturally important animals. They have …

Nucleic acid extraction and sequencing of genes from organisms within environmental
samples encompasses a variety of techniques collectively referred to as environmental DNA …

Our knowledge of zoosporic fungal phylogeny, physiology, and ecological functions, in
