CONSTAX2: Improved taxonomic classification of environmental DNA markers.
Liber, Julian A; Bonito, Gregory; Benucci, Gian Maria Niccolò (Bioinformatics (Oxford, England), 2021-05-07)<h4>Summary</h4>CONSTAX - the CONSensus TAXonomy classifier - was developed for accurate and reproducible taxonomic annotation of fungal rDNA amplicon sequences and is based upon a consensus approach of RDP, SINTAX, and ... -
Linnemannia elongata (Mortierellaceae) stimulates Arabidopsis thaliana aerial growth and responses to auxin, ethylene, and reactive oxygen species.
Vandepol, Natalie; Liber, Julian; Yocca, Alan; Matlock, Jason; Edger, Patrick; Bonito, Gregory (PloS one, 2022-01)Harnessing the plant microbiome has the potential to improve agricultural yields and protect plants against pathogens and/or abiotic stresses, while also relieving economic and environmental costs of crop production. While ... -
Maple and hickory leaf litter fungal communities reflect pre-senescent leaf communities.
Liber, Julian A; Minier, Douglas H; Stouffer-Hopkins, Anna; Van Wyk, Judson; Longley, Reid; Bonito, Gregory (PeerJ, 2022-01)Fungal communities are known to contribute to the functioning of living plant microbiomes as well as to the decay of dead plant material and affect vital ecosystem services, such as pathogen resistance and nutrient cycling. ... -
Mycoplasma-related endobacteria within Mortierellomycotina fungi: diversity, distribution and functional insights into their lifestyle.
Desirò, Alessandro; Hao, Zhen; Liber, Julian A; Benucci, Gian Maria Niccolò; Lowry, David; Roberson, Robert; Bonito, Gregory (The ISME journal, 2018-06)Bacterial interactions with animals and plants have been examined for over a century; by contrast, the study of bacterial-fungal interactions has received less attention. Bacteria interact with fungi in diverse ways, and ... -
Resolving the Mortierellaceae phylogeny through synthesis of multi-gene phylogenetics and phylogenomics.
Vandepol, Natalie; Liber, Julian; Desirò, Alessandro; Na, Hyunsoo; Kennedy, Megan; Barry, Kerrie; Grigoriev, Igor V; ... (11 authors) (Fungal diversity, 2020-09)Early efforts to classify Mortierellaceae were based on macro- and micromorphology, but sequencing and phylogenetic studies with ribosomal DNA (rDNA) markers have demonstrated conflicting taxonomic groupings and polyphyletic ... -
Two new endophytic Atractiellomycetes, Atractidochium hillariae and Proceropycnis hameedii.
Aime, M Catherine; Urbina, Hector; Liber, Julian A; Bonito, Gregory; Oono, Ryoko (Mycologia, 2018-01)Sterile fungal isolates are often recovered in leaf and root endophytic studies, although these seldom play a significant role in downstream analyses. The authors sought to identify and characterize two such endophytes-one ...
