“…We also propose a basic type, Peziza, as we can not be sure that the phylum will not be split in the future when more molecular data and material of ascomycetes and basidiomycetes have been sequenced. Hawksworth et al (1995) and Eriksson & Winka (1997: 4) used the phylum names Ascomycota and Basidiomycota; the latter authors listed 31 nucleotide signatures in the nSSU rDNA genes in Basidiomycota. Since then many more sequences have become available, also from many other genes that support monophyly of Ascomycota and Basidiomycota.…”

The most dramatic shifts in the classification relative to previous works concern the groups that have traditionally been included in the Chytridiomycota and Zygomycota. The Chytridiomycota is retained in a restricted sense, with Blastocladiomycota and Neocallimastigomycota representing segregate phyla of flagellated Fungi. Taxa traditionally placed in Zygomycota are distributed among Glomeromycota and several subphyla incertae sedis, including Mucoromycotina, Entomophthoromycotina, Kickxellomycotina, and Zoopagomycotina. Microsporidia are included in the Fungi, but no further subdivision of the group is proposed. Several genera of 'basal' Fungi of uncertain position are not placed in any higher taxa, including Basidiobolus, Caulochytrium, Olpidium, and Rozella.

“…Broader definitions have also been published (e.g. Hawksworth et al, 1995), but are of little value as they do not exclude pathogenic associations. Mycorrhizas are now considered to differ primarily from other plant-fungus associations because they are intimate associations with a specialised interface where exchange of materials occurs between living cells (Nehls et al, 2001 ;Pfeffer, Bago & Shachar-Hill, 2001).…”

Diversity and classification of mycorrhizal associations

Most mycorrhizas are ' balanced ' mutualistic associations in which the fungus and plant exchange commodities required for their growth and survival. Myco-heterotrophic plants have 'exploitative ' mycorrhizas where transfer processes apparently benefit only plants. Exploitative associations are symbiotic (in the broad sense), but are not mutualistic. A new definition of mycorrhizas that encompasses all types of these associations while excluding other plant-fungus interactions is provided. This definition recognises the importance of nutrient transfer at an interface resulting from synchronised plant-fungus development. The diversity of interactions between mycorrhizal fungi and plants is considered. Mycorrhizal fungi also function as endophytes, necrotrophs and antagonists of host or non-host plants, with roles that vary during the lifespan of their associations. It is recommended that mycorrhizal associations are defined and classified primarily by anatomical criteria regulated by the host plant. A revised classification scheme for types and categories of mycorrhizal associations defined by these criteria is proposed. The main categories of vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizal associations (VAM) are 'linear' or 'coiling ', and of ectomycorrhizal associations (ECM) are ' epidermal ' or 'cortical '. Subcategories of coiling VAM and epidermal ECM occur in certain host plants. Fungus-controlled features result in ' morphotypes ' within categories of VAM and ECM. Arbutoid and monotropoid associations should be considered subcategories of epidermal ECM and ectendomycorrhizas should be relegated to an ECM morphotype. Both arbuscules and vesicles define mycorrhizas formed by glomeromycotan fungi. A new classification scheme for categories, subcategories and morphotypes of mycorrhizal associations is provided.

“…Fungal taxonomists accept that a given yeast or other fungus may exist both in a state (often called the 'perfect' state or stage or 'teleomorph') which produces sexual 'spores' such as ascospores, and in an asexual ('imperfect') state, or 'anamorph', without sexual reproduction ( [107] pp. 437-438).…”
