Mycological Research News1 In this issue Medicinal importance of fungal glucans (review) (pp. 635–652). Molecular phylogeny of Leucogastrales (pp. 653–662). Phylogeography of Leccinum sect. Scabra (pp. 663–672). Leveillula on monocots (pp. 673–679). An Eocene corticolous ascomycete (pp. 680–684). Arachiform vacuolar bodies in Xanthoparmelia ascospores (pp. 685–692). The type species of Apiognomonia (pp. 693–709). Molecular diversity of Pleurotus eryngii (pp. 710– 715). Recombination in Nomuraea rileyi (pp. 716–725). Monoclonal antibody detection of Saprolegnia parasitica isolates (pp. 726–733). Culture of Tuber melanosporum with Cistus laurifolius (pp. 734–739). Inoculum production and preservation of powdery mildews (pp. 740–747). Inoculation of Beauveria bassiana onto coffee plants (pp. 748–757).
Assembling the Fungal Tree of Life (AFTOL) The special issue of Mycologia devoted entirely to reporting the results that have emerged from the Deep Hypha and AFTOL projects, volume 98 (6), November/December 2006, was finally published in April. The ordinal and supraordinal system commended for general use as a result of extensive new molecular phylogenetic data has been published in Mycological Research (Hibbett et al. 2007), but much more detail and explanation, also covering families and many genera, are to be found in this special issue of Mycologia. Following an overview of the main achievements of the projects, Taylor & Berbee (pp. 838–849) consider the possible dates of divergence of the main fungal phyla; these were clearly established by the Devonian (400 Myr ago) but the Ascomycota/Basidiomycota might have been even earlier at around 1.5 Byr ago if the enigmatic Palaeopyrenomycites devonicus is really a member of the Sordariomycetes2. Overall, there are 24 contributions in this issue, most by teams of authors. While it is not practical to detail all of these
here, the topics of those devoted to particular groups can be summarized: Chytridiomycota (pp. 860–871), Zygomycota (pp. 872–884), Glomeromycota (pp. 885–895), Pucciniomycotina (pp. 896–905), Ustilaginomycota (pp. 906–916), Agaricomycotina (pp. 917–925), Hymenochaetales (pp. 926–936), cantharelloid clade (pp. 937–948), gomphoid-phalloid fungi (pp. 949–959), Russulales (pp. 960–970), Boletales (pp. 971–981), Agaricales (pp. 982–995), early Ascomycota (pp. 996–1005), Saccharomycetales (pp. 1006–1017), Pezizomycotina (pp. 1018–1028), Pezizomycetes (pp. 1029–1040), Dothideomycetes (pp. 1041–1052), Eurotiomycetes (pp. 1053–1064), Leotiomycetes (pp. 1065–1075), Sordariomycetes (pp. 1076–1087), and Lecanoromycetes (pp. 1088–1103).
