Article Synopsis
- * Earlier studies focused on the morphology of fungi, while recent molecular techniques have led to a surge in new species discoveries, particularly in Asia.
- * The newly created palm fungi website (https://palmfungi.org) serves as an integrated platform for research and collaboration, offering comprehensive information on palm fungi and their hosts, and fostering connections between various scientists interested in palm ecology and sustainability.
Asexual species of Tubeufiaceae are characterised as helicosporous hyphomycetes and are abundantly discovered in tropical and subtropical regions. The present study collected helicosporous fungal samples from rotting tissues of , and in Xishuangbanna, Yunan Province, China. Fungal isolates were identified, based on the morphological characteristics and multi-gene phylogeny with DNA sequence data of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS), part of the large subunit nuclear rRNA gene (LSU), translation elongation factor 1-alpha gene ( 1-) and RNA polymerase II second largest subunit gene (2).

- Researchers studied saprobic fungi related to mangoes in Yunnan Province, China, identifying species from various fungal orders.
- They used morphological evaluations and phylogenetic analysis based on multiple gene sequences to classify the fungi.
- The study reported a new genus, four new species, and two new collections, along with four new host and geographical records.
In Yunnan Province, the coffee-growing regions are mainly distributed in Pu'er and Xishuangbanna. During the surveys of microfungi associated with coffee in Yunnan Province, seven taxa were isolated from coffee samples. Based on molecular phylogenetic analyses of combined ITS, LSU, SSU, 2, and 1-α sequence data and morphological characteristics, four new species viz.
