Systematic classification and phylogenetic relationships of the brown-rot fungi within the Polyporales

Shun Liu et al.

Summary: Brown-rot fungi are important for forest ecosystems as they degrade wood cellulose and hemicellulose, and contribute to nutrient cycling. Recent studies have shown that the ability to produce brown rot has evolved independently multiple times. This study focuses on the classification and phylogenetic relationships of brown-rot fungi within the Polyporales, based on DNA sequences from various loci. The study proposes new families, genera, species, and combinations, and provides illustrations and descriptions for the new species.

X. Ji et al.

Summary: This study conducted taxonomic and phylogenetic analyses on the genus Polyporus and its related genera, and studied the divergence times and evolutionary relationships using conserved regions of DNA fragments. The results showed that the species of Polyporus and its related genera can be divided into six different clades. Additionally, three new species of Polyporus and seven new species of Picipes were discovered.
