Elevated substitution rates and increased purifying selection associated with thermophily in Chaetomiaceae fungi

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

Living in a metal-rich world: Enhanced growth and reduced metal accumulation in Fusarium fungi from the Kiirunavaara iron ore mine

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.

Patterns and drivers of genome-wide codon usage bias in the fungal order Sordariales

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.

Systematic exploration of domain assortments in NOD-like receptors uncovers two types of NACHT domains in Sordariales fungi

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