Dr. Rytas Vilgalys of Duke University will use modern                      methods of DNA analysis to obtain nucleotide sequence data and                  restriction-site mapping information on fungi of three related                  tribes of the basidiomycete family Tricholomataceae.  The genomic               data will be used to improve recognition of generic groups of                   these fungi and to determine the phylogenetic affinities among                  the genera and tribes.  The fungi will be surveyed for                          phylogenetically useful restriction site and sequence variation                 at loci coding for ribosomal RNA.  In addition, Dr. Vilgalys has                adapted laboratory procedures for filamentous fungi which allow                 rapid, direct sequencing of RNA from isolates from crude cellular               lysates.  Further genetic analyses will provide information about               the rate and direction of evolution within ribosomal genes of                   fungi.
