Supraordinal phylogenetic relationships of Lecanoromycetes based on a Bayesian analysis of combined nuclear and mitochondrial sequences,
Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution,
31: 822-832
Phylogenetic relationships of lichen-forming discomycetes and their relatives in the class Lecanoromycetes were examined by
using nuclear large subunit and mitochondrial small subunit ribosomal DNA sequences. Ninety-eight partial sequences of 53 ascomycetes
were generated and aligned with the corresponding sequences retrieved from GenBank resulting in an alignment of 100
taxa that was analyzed using a Bayesian approach with Markov chain Monte Carlo (B/MCMC) methods. The analysis revealed the
monophyly …
