Reconstructing the early evolution of Fungi using a six-gene phylogeny
James, T. Y.; Kauff, F.; Schoch, C. L.; Matheny, P. B.; Hofstetter, V.; Cox, C. J.; Celio, G.; Gueidan, C.; Fraker, E.; Miadlikowska, J.; Lumbsch, H. T.The ancestors of fungi are believed to be simple aquatic forms with flagellated spores, similar to members of the extant phylum Chytridiomycota (chytrids). Current classifications assume that chytrids form an early-diverging clade within the kingdom Fungi and imply a single loss of the spore flagellum, leading to the diversification of terrestrial fungi. Here we develop phylogenetic hypotheses for Fungi using d...
