Fungal–fungal and fungal–bacterial interactions in aquatic decomposer communities: bacteria promote fungal diversity [PDF]
AbstractFungi produce a variety of extracellular enzymes, making recalcitrant substrates bioavailable. Thus, fungi are central for the decomposition of dead organic matter such as leaf litter. Despite their ecological importance, our understanding of relationships between fungal species diversity and ecosystem functioning is limited, especially with ...

Novel Cyclic Peptides from Lethal Amanita Mushrooms through a Genome-Guided Approach
Most species in the genus Amanita are ectomycorrhizal fungi comprising both edible and poisonous mushrooms. Some species produce potent cyclic peptide toxins, such as α-amanitin, which places them among the deadliest organisms known to mankind.
