Shining a light on dark taxa: new fungal phyla and classes revealed by eDNA long reads
Researchers have used "innovative taxonomy" to describe more than 100 fungal taxa based on long reads, characteristic nucleotides and env-samples.

Evidence shows that criminalization of abortion drives women and girls towards unsafe procedures – to the detriment of their safety, their health and their rights.
