Additions of New Endolichenic Fungi to Herpotrichiellaceae (Chaetothyriales, Ascomycota) from northern Thailand Endolichenic fungi associated with lichen thalli in Thailand are poorly known in terms of species diversity. During a study conducted in Chiang Mai Province, Thailand, in 2023, eight endolichenic fung...

Researchers describe and illustrate new endolichenic fungi in Herpotrichiellaceae from northern Thailand, and present other information on the diversity of endolichenic species associated with lichens in Thailand.

The mental burden of statistical significance in academic publishing "The pursuit of significance is no longer just a technical issue, but a psychological burden that shapes behaviour, distorts judgement, and affects mental well-being.”

Researchers face growing psychological strain, driven by pressure to obtain statistically significant results in academic publishing, reveals Michal Ordak.

Chaetocapnodium magnum and Chaetocapnodium polonicum from conifer resins disclose an unknown lifestyle in the Capnodiales (Dothideomycetes) The paraphyletic order Capnodiales s. lat. was recently divided into eight orders based on phylogeny, morphology, and fungal lifestyle. As a consequence, Capnodiales s. str. was redefined to include f...

Two new species of Chaetocapnodium have been described from Poland based on morphology and multi-gene phylogenetic analyses.

Both species were isolated from resin flows of conifers, a new ecological niche for the genus and the entire order Capnodiales.
