Basidiomycota (/ b ə ˌ s ɪ d i. oʊ m aɪ ˈ k oʊ t ə /) [2] is one of two large divisions that, together with the Ascomycota, constitute the subkingdom Dikarya (often referred to as the "higher fungi") within the kingdom Fungi. Members are known as basidiomycetes. [3]
This is a list of families in the phylum Basidiomycota of kingdom Fungi.The Basidiomycota are the second largest phyla of the fungi, containing 31515 species. [1] The phylum is divided into three subphyla, the Pucciniomycotina (rust fungi), the Ustilaginomycotina (smut fungi), the Agaricomycotina, and two classes of uncertain taxonomic status (incertae sedis), the Wallemiomycetes and the ...
Agaricomycotina is one of three subdivisions of the Basidiomycota (fungi bearing spores on basidia), and represents all of the fungi which form macroscopic fruiting bodies.. Agaricomycotina contains over 30,000 species, [1] divided into three classes: Tremellomycetes, Dacrymycetes, and Agaricomycetes.
The following families are in the Agaricales, according to Kalichman, Kirk & Matheny (2020), [3] with more recent additions and amendments, as noted. The number of genera and species in each family is taken from Catalogue of Life (2023), [ 1 ] unless otherwise noted, and is subject to change as new research is published.
The phylum Basidiomycota can be divided into three major lineages: mushrooms, rusts and smuts. Fusion of haploid nuclei ( karyogamy ) occurs in the basidia, club-shaped end cells. Shortly after formation of the diploid cell, meiosis occurs and the resulting four haploid nuclei migrate into four, usually external cells called basidiospores .
Based on the work of Philippe Silar, [1] and "The Mycota: A Comprehensive Treatise on Fungi as Experimental Systems for Basic and Applied Research" [2] and synonyms from "Part 1- Virae, Prokarya, Protists, Fungi".
[11] [12] [13] Studies using a combination of rRNA gene sequences, single-copy protein-coding genes, [14] [15] and genome-based phylogenetic analyses have shown that the Polyporales are a monophyletic group. [13] [16] [10] They are a member of the class Agaricomycetes, but have not been assigned to a subclass. [17]
