An eight-gene molecular phylogeny of the Kickxellomycotina, including the first phylogenetic placement of Asellariales

Abstract excerpt

Kickxellomycotina is a recently described subphylum encompassing four zygomycete orders (Asellariales, Dimargaritales, Harpellales, Kickxellales). These fungi are united by the formation of disciform septal pores containing lenticular plugs.
