Recent Trends in Fungal Phylogeny and Phylogenomics
Summary :This document reviews phylogenomic revisions in fungal classification, including the discovery of new phyla such as Cryptomycota, Mucoromycota, and Zoopagomycota. It discusses the breakdown of polyphyletic groups like Zygomycota and Chytridiomycota, placement of Microsporidia within fungi, and molecular advances that have clarified evolutionary relationships among fungal lineages.
