Species in the orders Glomerales and Diversisporales ( Glomeromycetes ) with glomoid spore formation are reorganized based on combined ribosomal sequence morphological analyses. Within two genera Glomeraceae Septoglomus, Simiglomus one genus Claroideoglomeraceae Viscospora proposed as new. Paraglomerales species (thus far monogeneric) also form spores that may all germinate directly through wall instead subtending hyphae .
Abstract Knowledge about the Brazilian fungal diversity was, until 2010, recorded in few taxonomy and ecology publications, as well a handful of species lists. With publication Catálogo de Plantas e Fungos do Brasil continued availability an online list, it has been possible to aggregate this dispersed knowledge. The version presented here adds 2,111 names 3,608 listed 2010. A total 5,719 fungi distributed 1,246 genera, 102 orders 13 phyla represents considerable increase over last five...
As a result of phylogenomic, phylogenetic, and morphological analyses members the genus Claroideoglomus , four potential new glomoid spore-producing species Entrophospora infrequens order, Entrophosporales, with one family, Entrophosporaceae (=Claroideoglomeraceae), was erected in phylum Glomeromycota. The phylogenomic recovered Entrophosporales as sister to clade formed by Diversisporales Glomeraceae. strongly conserved entrophosporoid morph E. provided newly designated epitype, shown...
Abstract Fungi are one of the most diverse groups organisms with an estimated number species in range 2–3 million. The higher-level ranking fungi has been discussed framework molecular phylogenetics since Hibbett et al., and definition higher ranks (e.g., phyla) ‘true fungi’ have revised several subsequent publications. Rapid accumulation novel genomic data advancements now facilitate a robust precise foundation for classification within kingdom. This study provides updated kingdom , drawing...
Based on concomitant molecular analyses of the ribosomal gene and morphological characteristics, we divide phylum Glomeromycota into three classes: Glomeromycetes, Archaeosporomycetes, Paraglomeromycetes. Glomeromycetes are newly organized in orders: Glomerales Diversisporales, both forming typical vesicular arbuscular mycorrhiza with higher plants, Gigasporales , without vesicles roots but extra-radical auxiliary cells . Within phylum, Archaeosporomycetes comprise exclusively bimorphic...
ABSTRACT This study aimed to thoroughly investigate communities of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) in six coastal, mined, reconstituted and revegetated dune areas Northeast Brazil. AMF spore density species richness as well the numbers infective propagules glomalin‐related soil protein (GRSP) were analyzed. Four had been restored for 16, 12, 8 4 years, after being re‐vegetated, fifth was mined but not yet sixth a native undisturbed coastal forest vegetation. The samples sampled dry wet...
Studies of the morphology and 45S nuc rDNA phylogeny three potentially undescribed arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (phylum Glomeromycota) grown in cultures showed that one these is a new species genus Diversispora family Diversisporaceae; other two are Scutellospora Scutellosporaceae. vistulana sp. nov. came from maritime sand dunes Vistula Spit northern Poland, S. graeca intraundulata originally inhabited Mediterranean Peloponnese Peninsula, Greece. In addition, morphological description...
This article presents the results of morphological studies, as well comparisons and phylogenetic analyzes sequences four arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF, phylum Glomeromycota): Dominikiaindica, Dominikiaindica strain 211, Isolate 517, 524. 211 was previously characterized only by 45S nuc rDNA region (= 18S, partial, ITS-1-5.8S-ITS2, 28S, partial) rpb1 gene (without any data) that were deposited in GenBank under incorrect name "Dominikiaindica 211". Its differed from original D.indica and,...
The objective of the present study was to revise recently described order Entrophosporales Glomeromycetes. single family Entrophosporaceae had been divided into three genera, Entrophospora, Claroideoglomus and Albahypha, due molecular phylogenetic or morphological analyses, but these genera were combined within type genus family, Entrophospora. Our new studies now suggest once more Entrophospora not separated again. In study, we resurrected Albahypha with A. drummondii furrazolae comb. nov....

A new family ( Intraornatosporaceae ), two genera Intraornatospora , Paradentiscutata species P. bahiana maritima and a combination I. intraornata ) are presented in the Gigasporales . The genera, both with diagnostic introverted ornamentations on spore wall, distinguished by wall structure germ shield characteristics. species, detected NE Brazil, can be differentiated their projections outer surface. Partial sequences of LSU rRNA gene place next to monophyletic major clade related...
Abstract Morphological analyses of three glomoid spore-producing fungi suggested that two them were undescribed species Glomeraceae (phylum Glomeromycota ), and the third differed slightly from Dominikia glomerocarpica Epigeocarpum crypticum , recently described in . The first originated Mediterranean Sea sand dunes Peloponnese, Greece, was originally found a tree plantation Yokohama City, Japan. Phylogenetic sequences 45S nuc rDNA region RPB1 gene showed (i) belonged to ; (ii) represented...
New ribosomal gene analyses reveal that Entrophospora is non-monophyletic and its type species E. infrequens closely related to Claroideoglomus species, which supports transfer of the Entrophosporaceae from Diversisporales Glomerales as well 'ancestral' spp. Albahypha gen. nov. baltica, supported a separate clade within Diversisporales, designated for new monospecific Sacculosporaceae . nevadensis, phylogenetically close Diversipora Otospora bareae, transferred Tricispora ( Diversiporaceae...
Metacommunity dynamics is marked by a gradient ranging from pure ecological determinism to stochasticity. This encompasses compositional turnover that governed drift, selection and dispersal. Here we estimate the influences of selection, dispersal limitation acting in concert with drift alone homogenizing on structure tropical restinga heath vegetation growing under stressful conditions north‐eastern South America. We hypothesize if abiotic heterogeneity strong enough, it could select...
Of the nearly 300 species of phylum Glomeromycota comprising arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), only 24 were originally described to form glomoid spores in unorganized sporocarps with a peridium and gleba, which are distributed randomly. However, natural (molecular) phylogeny most these remains unknown. We found two fungi-producing spores: one Amazonian forest Brazil (tropical forest) second Poland (temperate forest). The unique spore morphology suggested that they undescribed species....
Examination of fungal specimens collected in the Atlantic rain forest ecosystems Northeast Brazil revealed many potentially new epigeous and semihypogeous glomerocarp-producing species phylum Glomeromycota. Among them were two fungi that formed unorganized glomerocarps with glomoid spores almost identical morphology. The sole structure distinguished was laminate layer 2 their three-layered spore wall, which second fungus crushed PVLG-based mountants contracted and, consequently, transferred...
Molecular and morphological analyses have elucidated phylogenetic relationships of two remarkable species in the Phallales : Aseroe floriformis Phallus roseus . Genes from ATPase subunit 6 (atp6), nuclear large ribosomal DNA (nuc-LSU), second largest RNA polymerase II (RPB2) underwent Bayesian parsimony molecular analyses. datasets, combined with characters, support a new genus ( Abrachium for ), reassessment Itajahya, emendation Clathraceae
Morphological and phylogenetic (45S nrDNA+RPB1 gene) analyses of three glomoid spore-producing arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi revealed the presence two new species be-longing to genus Glomus in family Glomeraceae. In field, highlandensis sp. nov. was found a saltmarsh Scottish Highlands maritime sand dunes Baltic Sea Poland, both saline environments, while G. mongioie originates from Italian Alps. Phylogenetic placement analysis using environmental sequences indicated that could have likely...
Preliminary morphological analyzes of an isolate producing glomoid spores in culture and comparison its 45S nuc rDNA sequences (= 18S-ITS-28S) with available GenBank suggested that this is undescribed arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus the genus Glomus family Glomeraceae (phylum Glomeromycota). This suggestion was confirmed by phylogenetic largest subunit RNA polymerase II (rpb1) gene placed autonomous clade sister to macrocarpum, type species Glomeromycota. In field, species, here named G....
