Redeckera C. Walker & A. Schüßler


TermDescription
Etymology:Latin, named for Dirk Redecker who pioneered molecular studies of glomeromycotan species
Description:Spore development is like that depicted for species in Glomus and other glomoid clades. All of the species described in this clade so far form relatively large sporocarps surrounded by a perineum. The sequence ARKTYTGGKMGCGGYAACGTRA in the SSU gene is specific for this genus delimited so far.
Type species:Redeckera megalocarpum D. Redecker
