PAPER ALERT! Tuovinen Nogerius et al. describe Semicentenialea rex (Clade establishing a new class: Semicentenialomycetes (Basidiomycota). 🔗 imafungus.pensoft.net/article/1898... #Mycology #Fungi #Biodiversity #eDNA”

Another dark taxon comes to light: Semicentenialomycetes, a new class within the Pucciniomycotina (Basidiomycota), and its first described representative, Semicentenialea rexOnly a small fraction of the global fungal diversity is described, and a large number of fungal sequences from environmental DNA (eDNA) lack relevant reference sequences for taxonomic identification i...imafungus.pensoft.net

Recruiting a PhD student on the evolution of mating behavior in water striders using deep learning behavioral tracking and brain transcriptomics. Looking for a curious, computationally strong candidate. Fully funded, 4 yr, Uppsala University. @corrallopeza.bsky.social uu.varbi.com/en/what:job/...

Sex-Biased Gene Expression Under Sexually Antagonistic and Sex-Limited SelectionAbstract. Sex differences in gene expression are ubiquitous, evolve quickly, and are expected to underlie phenotypic sexual dimorphism (SD). Despite long-sacademic.oup.com

Can #lichen forming fungi live without their #photobionts? Recent work brings evidence in this regard. Read more here: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... Congrats toAnders Dalhberg, Silvia Pioli, Mari Jönsson, Florian Barbi, Göran Thor, @veera-t-nogerius.bsky.social!

Detailed analysis of fungal communities in Norway spruce logs reveals stochastic fine-scale patterns of species and detects lichen forming fungi without their photobiontsFungal ecologists have long been intrigued by the mechanisms behind the high fungal species richness in dead wood at small and large spatial scales. W…www.sciencedirect.com

New research article investigates the role of #fungal communities in treeline expansion under global warming, finding that fewer #ectomycorrhizal fungi in alpine soils may limit the establishment of #Betula pubescens seedlings above the treeline. With Eivind Ronold, @drhyfe.bsky.social & Ella Thoen

Elevational range expansion of Betula pubescens may be slowed by lack of suitable mycorrhizal symbionts in alpine soilsThe elevational limit for trees is increasing worldwide due to global warming. The elevational range expansion of obligate ectomycorrhizal trees, such…www.sciencedirect.com

Paper Alert @newphyt.bsky.social ! The diversity of #Archaeorhizomycetes the class of fungi commonly present in soil but little understood is finally revealed using long and short-read amplicons. Read more here nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.....

Short‐ and long‐read metabarcoding of Archaeorhizomycetes reveals high phylogenetic diversity structured by vegetation and climateArchaeorhizomycetes is a class of globally widespread soil-dwelling fungi, originally proposed to be associated with plant roots, but their ecology and nutritional mode are not clearly defined.

PAPER ALERT! Painted lady #Butterflies (Vanessa cardui) can fly long! They can even cross the ocean! Congrats for this great work @megansreich.bsky.social et al. ! @pnasnexus.org

Painted lady butterflies that migrate from Europe to the Mediterranean are not genetically distinct from those that migrate from Europe to West Africa. Instead, environmental cues likely determine migration distance. In PNAS Nexus: academic.oup.com/pnasnexus/ar...
