The paper investigates genomic adaptations in thermophilic Chaetomiaceae fungi, finding higher substitution rates and stronger purifying selection compared to mesophiles.

The paper evaluates heavy metal tolerance and mycoremediation potential of Fusarium isolates from an iron ore mine, finding increased growth and reduced metal uptake in mine-derived isolates compared to controls.

The paper examines centromere evolution in Podospora species, finding that the loss of the RIP defense system in P. pseudocomata correlates with smaller centromeres and a shift in transposable element composition.

The paper analyzes codon usage bias in Sordariales fungi, finding differences in bias levels across families and hypothesizing ecological factors drive higher bias in some groups.

The paper analyzes NLRs in Sordariales fungi, identifying two types of NACHT domains and showing clustering patterns similar to animal and plant NLRs.

The paper reconstructs NOD-like receptor alleles in Podospora anserina using long-read sequencing, revealing structural and functional insights into incompatibility genes.

This study uses metagenomic and metatranscriptomic analysis to reveal the microbial complexity and gene expression dynamics in the lichen Xanthoria parietina across developmental stages.

The paper provides chromosome-level genome assemblies for four species in the Podospora anserina complex, along with a dataset of 28 annotated genomes, revealing genomic similarities and phylogenetic conflicts.

The paper analyzes TE distribution and RIP patterns in 10 Neurospora species using nearly gapless genome assemblies, showing a correlation between TE content, genome size, and RIP signatures.

The paper presents a phylogenomic analysis of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi using de novo genome assemblies, revealing new evolutionary relationships among families.

The paper describes the discovery of a large transposon, Enterprise, in the fungus Podospora anserina, which carries meiotic drive genes and can transpose, challenging views on TE genome impact.

ARBitR improves genome scaffolding using 10X Chromium linked reads by incorporating an OLC step to reduce gaps and improve contig overlap resolution.

The paper introduces a novel single nuclei sequencing and assembly workflow to generate reference genomes from arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, bypassing the need for culturing.

The paper identifies Spok genes as the molecular basis of meiotic drivers in Podospora anserina and shows their role in spore killing and resistance through distinct domains.

The paper identifies rfk-1 as a gene required for spore killing in Neurospora, showing its deletion abolishes Sk-2 spore killing and its insertion disrupts meiosis in non-Sk-2 isolates.
