Taxonomic and Phylogenetic Insights into Novel Ascomycota from Forest Woody Litter
While surveying the mycobiomes of dead woody litter in Yunnan Province, China, numerous isolates with affinity to Pleosporales (Dothideomycetes, Ascomycota) were recovered. The present work characterizes two species associated with dead woody twigs found

Predicting global numbers of teleomorphic ascomycetes [PDF]
AbstractSexual reproduction is the basic way to form high genetic diversity and it is beneficial in evolution and speciation of fungi. The global diversity of teleomorphic species in Ascomycota has not been estimated. This paper estimates the species number for sexual ascomycetes based on five different estimation approaches, viz.

Chemotaxonomy of Penicillium and Related Teleomorphs
Penicillium is a taxonomically difficult genus of great importance in fields as diverse as food spoilage, biotechnology, biodeterioration, plant pathology and medicine. Traditional morphological approaches to taxonomy have been less than satisfactory, so in recent years a wide range of newer techniques-chemical, biochemical and physiologicalhave been ...
