Thursday 24 th August Program<br />
0730-0930 Meeting Room 1&2<br />
General Meeting of the <strong>International</strong> Commission for the Taxonomy of Fungi<br />
Chair: Keith Seifert<br />
0800-1000 Hall C<br />
Symposium 42: Genomes and Fitness<br />
Chairs: Gareth W. Griffith (UK) / Simon V. Avery (UK)<br />
The indeterminate growth patterns and diverse reproductive strategies of filamentous fungi make assessment of fitness<br />
less straightforward than for some other groups such as animals, though for yeasts fitness is generally equated with rate<br />
of cell division . Genomic information now available for many of the best-studied fungi now raises the possibility that<br />
the effects of individual genes on organismal fitness can be explored in a way not possible for less tractable<br />
experimental higher organisms.<br />
0800-0830 IS3 - 0853<br />

Exploring the mobility of DNA transposons in the Dutch elm disease fungi<br />

Proffered Session 1: Phylogeny I<br />
Chair: Heide-Marie Daniel (Belgium)<br />
Molecular phylogenies will be discussed in the context of morphological and other data, including the ecology and<br />
geographical distribution of taxa in this session. A common topic of the presentations will be the utilisation of<br />
phylogenies to evaluate data for their suitability to build natural classifications and to assess fungal diversity. A strong<br />
emphasis is laid on basidiomycetous taxa.<br />
0800-0820 PS1 - 0756<br />
Demystifying Dothideomycetes - combining ultrastructure and molecular tools to study phylogenetic relationships<br />
