DALI, a "Database of Ascomycete Literature", comprises references which pertain systematic and taxonomic studies of ascomycetes. Within that, it primarily deals with the Lecanorales, Leotiales and the ecological group of lichenicolous fungi, but includes references to pyrenocarpous, erysiphalean and mitosporic fungi as well. The database also provides access to information about molecular data relevant to ascomycete systematics. The literature is arranged in nine categories containing taxonomic, biological and methodological topics. The current database contains more than 7,000 records. The maximum numbers of hits returned per search is set to 250. Most of the references in the database have been verified, that is they have been checked for accuracy against the original. Nevertheless, typing and other errors can occur. ... [Information of the supplier]
Mycological literature is extensive, diverse and often dispersed. The objective of this website is to facilitate access to that literature by providing bibliographic lists of references. The present version of the site provides extensive bibliographic information for mycological publications, most dating from the early 1800s to the 1980s, and covering many works in Russian and Ukrainian. As such, it complements other mycological bibliographic sources on the internet, which concentrate on recent literature and do not attempt to present Cyrillic information in its original form (for example Bibliography of Systematic Mycology and the literature database available on line from the USDA Systematic Botany & Mycology Laboratory). Like the two other mycological bibliographic sources mentioned, this library provides search facilities, so that all available references to work by a specified author can be requested. Unlike those other sources, however, the present site also permits browsing. In addition, the present site provides hyperlinks through those bibliographic records to scanned images of the works to which they refer. The task of scanning existing mycological literature is enormous and is unlikely to be achieved through any single initiative. The present site is therefore offered in a spirit of co-operation with Libri Fungorum and other sites which may be planned or in preparation, and every effort will be made to collaborate with such sites to avoid duplication of effort. As those sites come on-line, they will be advertized here. Future versions of the present site will improve the still incomplete coverage of 19th and 20th century literature, and add information about older and more recent works, with a particular emphasis on earlier publications and non-Latin alphabet publications. Some efforts will also be made to provide indexes allowing access to works dealing with particular fungal groups, associated organism groups, countries and other topics. Access to scanned images will also be increased. Availability of those images will always be limited by copyright. As a result, the scanning programme will prioritize two areas: the first, key early mycological works, which are scientifically important, often hard to access and beyond the restrictions of copyright, and the second, more recent mycological works where the copyright owner consents to their reproduction. ...

Mit der Zeitschrift für Mykologie, in der deutschsprachige Artikel publiziert werden, erstrebt die DGfM (Deutsche Gesellschaft für Mykologie) eine auf den deutschsprachigen Raum zentrierte Vermittlung mykologischen und pilzkundlichen Wissens. Das Journal Mycological Progress veröffentlicht wissenschaftliche Beiträge in Englisch und dient damit eher dem internationalen Wissenstransfer. Der Zeitschrift für Mykologie sind die DGfM-Mitteilungen beigeschlossen. Sie konzentrieren sich als vereinsbezogenes Publikationsorgan auf vereinsinterne Mitteilungen, Bekanntgabe von Terminen und Vorstandsbeschlüssen, interessante Kurzmeldungen und Mitteilungen bezüglich Tätigkeit von Pilzsachverständigen. Die Serie Beihefte zur Zeitschrift für Mykologie ist hauptsächlich längeren Beiträgen vorbehalten. Die DGfM hat gemeinsam mit dem Landesgesundheitsamt Mecklenburg-Vorpommern einen Leitfaden für Pilzsachverständige herausgebracht. Mit Unterstützung der DGfM wurde von Mitgliedern der pilzkundlichen Vereine und Arbeitsgemeinschaften Augsburg, München und Ulm eine Lehrposterserie über Pilze entwickelt. ...

Saccharomyces Genome Database is a scientific database of the molecular biology and genetics of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, which is commonly known as baker's or budding yeast. (...) SGD contains the sequences of yeast genes and proteins; descriptions and classifications of their biological roles, molecular functions, and subcellular localizations; links to literature information; links to functional genomics datasets; and tools for analysis and comparison of sequences. The SGD Home page is the main entry point for the database. SGD is aimed at scientists; collected information about yeast for the non-scientist can be found at the Yeast Virtual Library. SGD does not collect medical information, and SGD curators cannot answer health-related questions. ... [Information of the supplier]
The Mycology.Net aims to provide online data on the biodiversity of fungi, including lichens, especially their taxonomy, distribution, phylogeny, descriptive characters, collections, literature etc.; inform about mycological institutions, journals, databases (link sections) and persons engaged in mycology and facilitate interaction between databases and support the development of standards for data exchange. ...

The MIPS Comprehensive Yeast Genome Database (CYGD) aims to present information on the molecular structure and functional network of the entirely sequenced, well-studied model eukaryote, the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. In addition the data of various projects on related yeasts are used for comparative analysis. ... [Information of the supplier]
Cortbase is a nomenclatural database of corticioid fungi (Corticiaceae s.l. and related hymenomycetes) with basionyms, synonyms, taxonomically correct names, data on name usage, literature references, and evaluation of nomenclatural status. The database includes 8088 species names; of the 4405 basionyms included, 2084 represent taxonomically acceptable species, 1427 are facultative synonyms, and 894 are of uncertain application. ...

LIAS is a multi-authored information system for the collection and distribution of descriptive and other biodiversity data on lichens and non-lichenized ascomycetes. The goal is (a) to provide a working space for cooperation and collaboration of experts on ascomycetes in the Internet, (b) to establish a multi-authored worldwide database on descriptive data of all ascomycetes, (c) to design user-friendly web tools for an easier access and remote editing of database records via Internet, (d) to offer a online database system for multiple usage and therewith dissemination of expert knowledge especially by providing public access to database generated identification keys and natural language description of ascomycetes, (e) to promote the gathering, furnishing and administration of data by experts in a standard database system which allows an information deposit for individual use only (e. g. for revision) and – after agreement – the public access to the data via Internet, (f) to promote common standards on descriptive data connected with taxonomic names of ascomycetes to facilitate interoperability and data exchange. The vision of LIAS is to establish a non-commercial global information system of advanced technology where published biodiversity data of all ascomycetes are joint in a multi-authored database and used for the most sophisticated queries. ...

The Index Fungorum, the world database of fungal names coordinated and supported by the Index Fungorum Partnership, contains names of fungi (including yeasts, lichens, chromistan fungi, protozoan fungi and fossil forms) at species level and below. Funding from GBIF (2003-2004) under the ECAT work programme will enable the addition of all missing author citations and year of publication and the linking of all homotypic names. New names from the Index of Fungi, compiled by CABI Bioscience and published by CABI Publishing, are added every three months. ... [Information of the supplier]
MycoBank is an on-line database aimed as a service to the mycological and scientific society by documenting mycological nomenclatural novelties (new names and combinations) and associated data, for example descriptions and illustrations. The nomenclatural novelties will each be allocated a unique MycoBank number that can be cited in the publication where the nomenclatural novelty is introduced. These numbers will also be used by the nomenclatural database Index Fungorum (http://www.IndexFungorum.org), with which MycoBank is associated and will also serve as Life Science Identifiers (LSIDs) ... ...
