Aldinomycetales Tedersoo .

Diagnosis.

Distinguishable from other fungi based on diagnostic nucleotide signatures in SSU V 4 (positions 732–746 gattcaggaccttca in S. cerevisiae; no mismatch allowed), SSU V 7 (positions 1346–1355 gttgttggtc in S. cerevisiae; no mismatch allowed), and LSU D 3 (positions 912–926 in the type species and 771–785 in S. cerevisiae: ggttttgagaaaaag; one mismatch allowed). Forms a monophyletic, least inclusive clade in Aldinomycota, covering sequences EUK 0320466, EUK 0529888, EUK 1205365, EUK 1124394, EUK 0529884, EUK 1111390, EUK 0529911, and EUK 0320468 (Fig. 1).

Notes.

Recognized based on eDNA sequences only. Currently harbors Aldinomycetales (ord. nov.).
