Using DNA Barcoding in Fungal Taxonomy
Totally, 1.5 million fungal species estimated, of which less than 10 percent have been described to date. Recent advances in molecular biology as well as gene sequencing technologies facilitate the discovery and identification of new species in various groups of living organisms, especially fungi.

Tracking fungal community responses to maize plants by DNA- and RNA-based pyrosequencing. [PDF]
We assessed soil fungal diversity and community structure at two sampling times (t1 = 47 days and t2 = 104 days of plant age) in pots associated with four maize cultivars, including two genetically modified (GM) cultivars by high-throughput ...

Identification of Contaminating Fungal DNA Sequences in Zymolyase [PDF]
ABSTRACT When different preparations of Zymolyase were included in the pretreatment protocol of a panfungal PCR assay using a primer system for the 18S rRNA gene, an amplification product occurred in negative controls. The amplified fragment showed 100.0% sequence identity to the Saccharomyces sensu ...

DNA quantification of basidiomycetous fungi during storage of logging residues [PDF]
The demand for bioenergy caused an increased use of logging residues, branches and treetops that were previously left on the ground after harvesting. Residues are stored outdoors in piles and it is unclear to what extent fungi transform this material ...
