Towards standardizing taxonomic ranks using divergence times – a case study for reconstruction of the Agaricus taxonomic system

2016-03-23

Abstract excerpt

The recognition of taxonomic ranks in the Linnean classification system is largely arbitrary. Some authors have proposed the use of divergence time as a universally standardized criterion. Agaricus (Agaricaceae, Agaricales) is a mushroom genus that contains many species of high commercial value. Recent studies using ITS sequence data discovered 11 new phylogenetic lineages within the genus, however their taxonomic...
