An international consortium of researchers has produced an impressive new tree of life for the kingdom Fungi. The results are a testament to cooperation between systematists with different expertise.First fungiThe AFTOL (Assembling the Fungal Tree of Life) project was established to put the taxonomic record straight. Fungi are one of the major kingdoms of life, yet little is known about their evolution, largely because of their small size and poor fossil record. Now AFTOL mycologists have… Expand
