| Abstract: | Background To date, most fungal phylogenies have been derived from single gene comparisons, or from concatenated alignments of a small
number of genes. The increase in fungal genome sequencing presents an opportunity to reconstruct evolutionary events using
entire genomes. As a tool for future comparative, phylogenomic and phylogenetic studies, we used both supertrees and concatenated
alignments to infer relationships between 42 species of fungi for which complete genome sequences are available. |
