| a comprehensive protocol for improving the description of saprolegniales (oomycota): two practical examples (saprolegnia aenigmatica sp. nov. and saprolegnia racemosa sp. nov.). | the description, identification and classification of organisms are the pillar in biodiversity and evolutionary studies. the fungal-like organism saprolegnia contains important animal pathogens. however, its taxonomy is weak, making it difficult to perform further studies. this problem mainly arises from the unavailability of suitable holotypes. we propose a standardized protocol for describing saprolegnia spp. that includes good cultural practices and proper holotype preservation. in order to i ... | 2015 | 26186364 |
