Morphological and phylogenetic analyses reveal two new species in Conidiobolus s.s. (Conidiobolaceae, Entomophthorales) from China [PDF]
MycoKeys, 2023 The genus Conidiobolus s.s. (Conidiobolaceae, Entomophthorales) has been delimited to accommodate members that produce microspores. Herein, morphological studies, combined with phylogenetic analysis based on the nuclear large subunit of rDNA (nucLSU ...

The Gene Rearrangement, Loss, Transfer, and Deep Intronic Variation in Mitochondrial Genomes of Conidiobolus [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021 The genus Conidiobolus s.s. was newly delimited from Conidiobolus s.l. In order to gain insight into its mitochondrial genetic background, this study sequenced six mitochondrial genomes of the genus Conidiobolus s.s.

Natural Selection Drives AT-Biased Codon Usage in Mitochondrial Genomes of Early-Diverging Conidiobolus Fungi (Zoopagomycota) [PDF]
Journal of FungiCodon usage bias (CUB) in mitochondrial genomes reflects evolutionary forces such as mutation, selection, and genetic drift, yet its dynamics in early-diverging fungal lineages like Conidiobolus (Zoopagomycota) remain unclear.

A taxonomic revision of the genus Conidiobolus (Ancylistaceae, Entomophthorales): four clades including three new genera [PDF]
MycoKeys, 2020 The genus Conidiobolus is an important group in entomophthoroid fungi and is considered to be polyphyletic in recent molecular phylogenies. To re-evaluate and delimit this genus, multi-locus phylogenetic analyses were performed using the large and small ...
