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...
O reino Fungi tem representantes que desempenham importantes papéis ecológicos no ambiente e com aplicações nos diversos setores da sociedade, indústria alimentícia, farmacêutica, têxtil, dentre outras. Entretanto, em sua grande maioria, os fungos são vistos como vilões causadores de infecções ou nem conhecidos pela sociedade. Essa realidade está geralmente atrelada a serem negligenciados sistemas básicos ensino até mesmo superior. Além disso, o uso abordagens tradicionais nas aulas torna...
We examined three arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF; phylum Glomeromycota) producing glomoid spores. The mode of formation and morphology these spores suggested that they represent undescribed species in the genus Rhizoglomus family Glomeraceae. Subsequent morphological studies molecular phylogenetic analyses sequences nuc rDNA small subunit (18S), internal transcribed spacer (ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 = ITS), large (28S) region (= 18S-ITS-28S) confirmed suggestion indicated strongly differ from all...
Aquatic ecosystems are historically overlooked regarding the occurrence of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi (AMF). Tropical lakes in southern hemisphere generally impacted by human actions, such as those Brazil, although they still preserve a great diversity macrophyte species that can support AMF communities. Thus, study aimed to test (i) whether community structure (composition, richness, diversity, dominance, and evenness) differs between aquatic terrestrial conditions, (ii) seasons—rainy...
A few studies indicated a possible role of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) in leaf litter decomposition. Information about these is limited by the availability techniques to recover them from such substrates. In present study we aimed (i) test an alternative approach for AMF recovery litter; (ii) investigate if community structure differs between plant species; (iii) assess whether glomoid spore type might be more abundant and (iv) determine quality soil chemical parameters influence...
