Figure 1: Global phylogeny of the fungal tribe Leucocoprineae.

Figure 1

The phylogeny was generated by Bayesian analyses of ITS sequence for 405 taxa (271 unique genotypes). Free-living fungi are indicated by black branches. Ant-associated fungi (red branches) have arisen multiple times and are concentrated in cultivar Clade 1 (shown in blue) and Clade 2 (shown in yellow).
