Data and code for the study "Palliocystidium, a new genus in the family Hydnodontaceae (Trechisporales)"

This is a collection of data used in our study "Palliocystidium, a new genus in the family Hydnodontaceae (Trechisporales)". 
Background and aims –  During fieldwork in French Guiana in 2018, two fungal specimens resembling the outstanding member of the genus Subulicystidium, viz. S. oberwinkleri, were collected. This study aims to clarify species- and genus-level assignment of this material from French Guiana and S. oberwinkleri. 
Material and methods – Corticioid fruiting bodies and spore prints were examined and measured under a light microscope. DNA sequences of the two nuclear ribosomal regions were used for Maximum likelihood and Bayesian phylogenetic analyses: (i) large subunit-coding DNA and (ii) internal transcribed spacer. Furthermore, guanine-cytosine content of the DNA region was calculated for (i), and UNITE Species Hypotheses Matching Analysis was performed for newly generated sequences of (ii).  
R code (as R Markdown files), input data and results of analyses (tables, tree files and publication-ready figures) are organized as R project.
