Research Abstract |
Multi-gene phylogenetic analyses of loculoascomycetous fungi (Dothideomycetes, Ascomycota) were conducted to evaluate the phylogenetic significance of morphological characters of anamorphic species. The results indicated that phenotypic characters of anamorphs may sometimes be phylogenetically informative and useful for species/generic delimitation rather than those of teleomorphs. Phylogenetic information of anamorphs will provided valuable insights in better understanding of the natural classification of the Fungi, although it has not been fully incorporated in fungal systematics until now.
