Evolutionary relationships and telomere repeat sequence of major fungal subphyla. The evolutionary relationships of the Ascomycota subphyla (Pezizomycotina, Saccharomycotina and Taphrinomycotina) and the Basidiomycota subphyla (Pucciniomycotina, Ustilaginomycotina and Agaricomycotina) are depicted based on recent phylogenomic studies of fungal species (17,24,25). Branch lengths are not proportional to evolutionary time. The names of subkingdom Dikarya (D), subphylum Ascomycota (A) and subphylum Basidiomycota (B) are indicated at nodes in the tree. Telomere repeat sequences of representative species from each subphylum are shown. The vertebrate-type sequence TTAGGG is shown in red. The subphyla Pezizomycotina and Taphrinomycotina studied in this work are highlighted in blue.
