A robust phylogenetic framework for ophiostomatoid fungi: orders Ophiostomatales and Microascales (Sordariomycetes, Ascomycota)

Congratulations to Dr Theo Llewellyn and Prof Alfried Vogler on their new paper in MycoKeys! 🎉

By bringing together thousands of fragmented records, the study delivers the most comprehensive phylogenetic framework to date for beetle-associated fungi, a group that includes important insect symbionts and major forest pathogens. 🪲🔬

This new open-access resource will support future research in biodiversity, evolution, environmental DNA, and biosecurity. 🌍🧬
