True fungi (Fungi) and fungus-like organisms (e.g. Mycetozoa, Oomycota) constitute the second largest group of based on global richness estimates, with around 3 million predicted species. Compared to plants animals, have simple body plans often morphologically ecologically obscure structures. This poses challenges for accurate precise identifications. Here we provide a conceptual framework identification fungi, encouraging approach integrative (polyphasic) taxonomy species delimitation, i.e. combination genealogy (phylogeny), phenotype (including autecology), reproductive biology (when feasible). allows objective evaluation diagnostic characters, either phenotypic or molecular both. Verification identifications is crucial but neglected. Because clade-specific evolutionary histories, there currently no single tool although DNA barcoding using internal transcribed spacer (ITS) remains first diagnosis, particularly in metabarcoding studies. Secondary barcodes are increasingly implemented groups where ITS does not sufficient precision. Issues pairwise sequence similarity-based OTU clustering discussed, multiple alignment-based phylogenetic approaches subsequent verification recommended as more alternatives. In approaches, trade-off between speed accuracy precision must be carefully considered. Intragenomic variation other markers should properly documented, phylotype diversity necessarily proxy richness. Important strategies improve are: (1) broadly document intraspecific intragenomic markers; (2) substantially expand repositories, focusing undersampled clades missing taxa; (3) curation labels primary repositories increase number sequences verified material; (4) link data digital information voucher specimens including imagery. parallel, technological improvements genome sequencing offer promising alternatives future. Despite prevalence DNA-based fungal taxonomy, phenotype-based remain an important strategy catalog establish initial hypotheses.

Abstract Aim Organisms on our planet form spatially congruent and functionally distinct communities, which at large geographical scales are called “biomes”. Understanding their pattern function is vital for sustainable use protection of biodiversity. Current global terrestrial biome classifications based primarily climate characteristics functional aspects plant community assembly. These other existing schemes do not take account soil organisms, including highly diverse important microbial groups. We aimed to define large‐scale structure in the diversity microbes (soil microbiomes), pinpoint environmental drivers shaping it identify resemblance mismatch with schemes. Location Global. Time period Current. Major taxa studied Soil eukaryotes prokaryotes. Methods collected samples from natural environments world‐wide, incorporating most known biomes. used high‐throughput sequencing characterize biotic communities k ‐means clustering microbiomes describing eukaryotic prokaryotic climatic data variables measured field microbiome structure. Results recorded strong correlations among fungal, bacterial, archaeal, animal defined a system (producing seven types six prokaryotes) showed that these typically structured by pH alongside temperature. None directly paralleled any current scheme, substantial prokaryotes cold climates; nor they consistently distinguish grassland forest ecosystems. Main conclusions Existing represent limited surrogate patterns organisms. show empirically attainable using metabarcoding statistical approaches suggest can have wide application theoretical applied biodiversity research.

Soil microbiome has a pivotal role in ecosystem functioning, yet little is known about its build-up from local to regional scales. In multi-year regional-scale survey involving 1251 plots and long-read third-generation sequencing, we found that soil pH the strongest effect on diversity of fungi multiple taxonomic functional groups. The effects were typically unimodal, usually both direct indirect through tree species, nutrients or mold abundance. Individual particularly Pinus sylvestris, Picea abies, Populus x wettsteinii, overall ectomycorrhizal plant proportion had relatively stronger biotrophic than saprotrophic fungi. We strong temporal sampling investigator biases for abundance molds, but generally all spatial, microclimatic weak. Richness several groups was highest woodlands around ruins buildings lowest bogs, with marked group-specific trends. contrast our expectations, tended be higher forest island habitats potentially due edge effect, fungal richness declined distance response fragmentation.

Fungal pathogens cause more than a billion human infections every year, resulting in 1.6 million deaths annually. Understanding the natural history and evolutionary ecology of fungi is helping us understand how disease-relevant traits have repeatedly evolved. Different types mechanisms genetic variation contributed to evolution fungal pathogenicity specific differences distinguish from non-pathogens. Insights into traits, elements, ecological that contribute are crucial for developing strategies both predict emergence develop drugs combat them.
