Abstract

The article presents a study on genome-scale phylogeny and contrasting modes of genome evolution in the fungal phylum Ascomycota. It mentions ascomycota, the largest and most well-studied phylum of fungi, contains three subphyla: Saccharomycotina (budding yeasts), Pezizomycotina (filamentous fungi), and Taphrinomycotina (fission yeasts). It provide a robust evolutionary framework for understanding the diversity and ecological lifestyles of the largest fungal phylum.
