Anatomical and ITS rDNA-based phylogenetic identification of two new West African resupinate thelephoroid species

- 10 April 2011
An anatomical approach coupled with molecular phylogeny of 84 sequences of thelephoroid taxa have been used to describe two new West African resupinate ThelephOrales, namely, Tomentella agereri and Tomentalla maroana, which are close to their genetically closest species.
Agaricus section Brunneopicti: a phylogenetic reconstruction with descriptions of four new taxa
The present morphological study and phylogenetic ML, MP and Bayesian analyses show that clade TR I corresponds to Agaricus section Brunneopicti and includes 16 taxa grouped in four strongly supported subclades and two isolated branches.

- 8 May 2014
To better circumscribe the genus Lactarius in Togo, morphological data with sequence analyses and phylogeny inference of rDNA ITS sequences were combined and the Maximum likelihood phylogeny tree inferred from aligned sequences supports the phylogenetic position of the studied samples from Togo within the subgenera Piperites, and Plinthogali.
Diversity of Lactifluus (Basidiomycota, Russulales) in West Africa: 5 new species described and some considerations regarding their distribution and ecology
- D. L. Maba, A. K. Guelly, N. S. Yorou, R. Agerer
- Environmental Science
- 2015
The phylogenetic placement of the species, combined with the morpho-anatomical data, supported the description of five new species distributed among Lactifluus species, and confirmed that, in both the Guineo-Sudanian and the Congo-Zambezian domain many common species occur.
Phylogenetic and microscopic studies in the genus Lactifluus (Basidiomycota, Russulales) in West Africa, including the description of four new species

- 24 March 2015
The phylogenetic placement of the specimens, combined with morpho-anatomical data, supported the description of four new species from Togo within the monophyletic genus Lactifluus, demonstrating that the current species richness of the genus is considerably higher than hitherto estimated for African species and, in addition, a need to redefine the subgenera and sections within it.
Two New Lactifluus species (Basidiomycota, Russulales) from Fazao Malfakassa National Park (Togo, West Africa)

- 1 August 2014
Two new Lactifluus species are described from milkcaps from Fazao Malfakassa National Park of Togo supported by molecular phylogenetic analysis of ITS sequences obtained by the extraction of ribosomal DNA of each sample, both phylogenetically and morphologically close to existing species.

In tropics, species diversity in agricultural systems is often assessed without distinction between native and exotic species. However, the conservation value of an ecosystem depends on its richness…
Amaurodon angulisporus (Basidiomycota, Fungi), a new species from West Africa identified by molecular and anatomical features
