The Genomes of Nematode-Trapping Fungi Provide Insights into the Origin and Diversification of Fungal Carnivorism

Yani Fan, Minghao Du, Weiwei Zhang…·Meichun Xiang

This study compares the genomes of nematode-trapping fungi and non-NTF to identify genomic changes linked to carnivorism and adaptation to post-Permian-Triassic extinction environments.

Characterization of Genome-wide Phylogenetic Conflict Uncovers Evolutionary Modes of Carnivorous Fungi

Weiwei Zhang, Yani Fan, Wei Deng…·Xingzhong Liu

The paper uses phylogenomic analyses of 23 genomes to study evolutionary modes of carnivorous fungi, finding extensive phylogenetic discordance due to incomplete lineage sorting and non-vertical evolution.
