Fungi Associated With Freshwater Zooplankton Are Taxon‐Specific, Temporally Dynamic and Reflect Allochthonous Inputs

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 14, July 2026.
ABSTRACT The associations between microbes and planktonic invertebrates in freshwater ecosystems are considered key ecological interactions. However, our understanding of the structure, taxonomic specificity, and environmental drivers of zooplankton microbiomes remains poor.

Whole genome sequencing of historical specimens from the world's largest fungal collection yields high‐quality assemblies

New Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 2, Page 752-767, July 2026.
Summary High‐throughput molecular studies of museum specimens (museomics) have great potential in biodiversity research, but fungal historical collections have scarcely been examined, leading to no comprehensive methodological assessments. Here we present a whole genome sequencing (WGS) project conducted at the Fungarium of the Royal Botanic Gardens ...

bZIP Transcription Factor PobZIP8 Positively Mediates Heat Stress Tolerance and Negatively Regulates the Growth and Development of Pleurotus ostreatus

Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 19, Issue 6, June 2026.
PobZIP8 from Pleurotus ostreatus enhances heat stress tolerance while negatively regulating fruiting body development, providing a key target for genetic improvement of edible fungi. ABSTRACT Pleurotus ostreatus is a globally cultivated edible and medicinal fungus, but its growth and yield are significantly affected by heat stress during cultivation ...

Mycophagous Activity of Agaricomycetes Class in Institut Pertanian Bogor University Campus Forest, Indonesia

Jurnal Ilmu Kehutanan
Macrofungi are a nutraceutical food containing high protein, low fat, and are rich in minerals that play an important role in animal physiology, particularly as food supplements because of their distinctive aroma.

Microbial endolithic community at Meteor Crater

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 6, Page 955-962, June 2026.
Abstract Postimpact recovery and evolution in response to climate changes produced a modern ecosystem at Meteor Crater dominated by a grassland and woodland of piñon and juniper, which has been used to evaluate floral and megafaunal consequences of impact cratering during the Phanerozoic Eon of complex life.

Endophytic and ectomycorrhizal, an overlooked dual ecological niche? Insights from natural environments and Russula species

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 6, Page 3946-3960, June 2026.
Summary Ectomycorrhizal fungi (EcMF) are key components of temperate ecosystems, and recent studies suggest that they can also inhabit non‐EcM plant roots as endophytes. We aimed to (1) provide new evidence of EcMF colonization of non‐EcM hosts, (2) offer direct microscopic confirmation of such endophytism and (3) assess factors influencing ...

Metabarcoding of Sediment eDNA Uncovers Ecological Gradients and Biodiversity in Philippine Mangroves

Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 3, May–June 2026.
Community diversity metrics revealed a clear ecological gradient, with the highest diversity observed in recolonized mature stands, intermediate in the natural stands, and lowest in the restored stands. Taxonomic profiles varied with mangrove stand, age, and zonation.

Evolutionary dynamics of host specialization in wood-decay fungi

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2018
Background The majority of wood decomposing fungi are mushroom-forming Agaricomycetes, which exhibit two main modes of plant cell wall decomposition: white rot, in which all plant cell wall components are degraded, including lignin, and brown rot, in ...

Fungal Diversity in a Mountain Lake Is Explained by Weather Patterns

Freshwater Biology, Volume 71, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Fungi are an important component of aquatic ecosystems because of their multifaceted roles such as organic matter decomposition, nutrient cycling and energy transfer to higher trophic levels. Despite their importance, little is known about the diversity and ecological functions of fungi in mountain lakes in general and specifically for ...
