An award to Pennsylvania State University is made to support a workshop to discuss and develop a community plan for a DNA sequence-based classification of fungi. A large proportion of fungal diversity is only known from DNA sequence fragments, but these taxa cannot be incorporated within current classification systems because their scientific names are not associated with a physical specimen. This workshop will consider the various technical, analytical and taxonomic/nomenclatural challenges and opportunities for implementing a DNA sequence-based taxonomy of fungi. The workshop will be two days in length and will include a total 40 participants. Participants will include researchers from diverse career stages and types of institution, with at least ten students and post-doctoral researchers, including members from under-represented groups, expected to participate. Workshop management will be handled by a steering committee of six individuals including three women, two faculty from Principally Undergraduate Institutions, and two people from under-represented groups. The workshop will result in: 1) a broadly distributed meeting report, 2) a position paper to be submitted for publication in a peer-reviewed journal, and 3) a proposal to modify the International Code for Algae, Fungi and Plants to allow sequence-based classification of fungi. Recommendations from this workshop will not only provide a framework for the classification of fungi using DNA sequence data, but will also serve as a model for the classification of other taxa known only from DNA sequences such as microbes.

授予宾夕法尼亚州立大学的奖项是为了支持一个研讨会，以讨论和制定基于DNA序列的真菌分类的社区计划。只有从DNA序列片段中知道的真菌多样性很大一部分，但是这些分类单元不能纳入当前分类系统中，因为它们的科学名称与物理标本无关。 该研讨会将考虑实施基于DNA序列的真菌分类法的各种技术，分析和分类/分类/命名挑战和机会。研讨会的长度为两天，总共包括40名参与者。 参与者将包括来自不同职业阶段和机构类型的研究人员，至少有十名学生和博士后研究人员，包括预计将参加的人数不足的团体的成员。讲习班管理将由六个人组成的指导委员会处理，其中包括三名妇女，两名来自本科机构的教职员工以及来自代表性不足的团体的两个人。研讨会将导致：1）一份广泛分布的会议报告，2）在同行评审期刊中提交的职位论文，以及3）3）一项提案，旨在修改藻类，真菌和工厂的国际守则，以允许基于序列的真菌分类。该研讨会的建议不仅将为使用DNA序列数据提供真菌分类的框架，而且还将作为仅从DNA序列（例如微生物）中知道的其他分类单元的分类模型。
