This study sequenced the genome of Ancylistes closterii, an algal parasite, to determine its phylogenetic position and evolutionary traits within Zoopagomycota.

This study investigates reproductive barriers in Trichaptum abietinum using population genomics and in vitro crosses, finding pre-mating barriers correlated with genomic divergence and hybrid fitness linked to increasing divergence.

The paper identifies a DNA virus in the amphibian-killing fungus Bd and links its presence to reduced host growth and increased virulence.

The paper examines genetic and phenotypic diversity in commensal Candida albicans strains from healthy donors and shows they retain pathogenic potential.

The paper constructs a genome-scale fungal phylogeny using 1,644 species and multiple data matrices, finding robust relationships and identifying taxonomic discrepancies.

The paper identifies psychoactive alkaloids in cicada pathogens, suggesting chemical-induced behavioral modification to enhance spore dispersal.
