Entorrhizomycetes

Entorrhizomycetes is the sole class in the phylum Entorrhizomycota within the Fungi subkingdom Dikarya along with Basidiomycota and Ascomycota. It contains three genera and is are small group of teliosporic root parasites that form galls on plants in the Juncaceae (rush) and Cyperaceae (sedge) families. Prior to 2015 this phylum was placed under the subdivision Ustilaginomycotina. A 2015 study did a "comprehensive five-gene analyses" of Entorrhiza and concluded that the former class Entorrhizomycetes is possibly either a close sister group to the rest of Dikarya or Basidiomycota.

gollark: Why JS? Why not C, then, which is always crazy and stupid?
gollark: Er, JS runtimes are, I mean.
gollark: JS (the runtime) is *very* heavily watched for security issues, because you know, *browsers*.
gollark: Probably not.
gollark: Or it's an important project but they can't throw away 20 million lines of bad code.
