The filamentous fungus Podospora anserina has been used as a model organism for more than 100 years and has proved to be an invaluable resource in numerous areas of research. Throughout this period, P. anserina has been embroiled in a number of taxonomic controversies regarding the proper name under which it should be called. The most recent taxonomic treatment proposed to change the name of this important species to Triangularia anserina. The results of past name changes of this species indicate that the broader research community is unlikely to accept this change, which will lead to nomenclatural instability and confusion in literature. Here, we review the phylogeny of the species closely related to P. anserina and provide evidence that currently available marker information is insufficient to resolve the relationships amongst many of the lineages. We argue that it is not only premature to propose a new name for P. anserina based on current data, but also that every effort should be made to retain P. anserina as the current name to ensure stability and to minimise confusion in scientific literature. Therefore, we synonymise Triangularia with Podospora and suggest that either the type species of Podospora be moved to P. anserina from P. fimiseda or that all species within the Podosporaceae be placed in the genus Podospora.

模型丝状真菌Popospora anserina的分类学

丝状真菌Podospora anserina被用作模型生物已有100多年的历史，并且已被证明是许多研究领域中的宝贵资源。在此期间，P。anserina被卷入了许多关于应使用其专有名称的分类学争议。最新的分类学处理提议将该重要物种的名称更改为三角毛an。该物种过去的名称更改结果表明，更广泛的研究界不太可能接受这种更改，这将导致命名规则的不稳定性和文献的混乱。在这里，我们回顾了与P密切相关的物种的系统发育。并提供证据表明当前可用的标记信息不足以解决许多谱系之间的关系。我们认为，不仅不宜根据当前数据为P. anserina命名，还为时过早，而且还应尽一切努力保持P. anserina为当前名称，以确保稳定性并最大程度地减少科学文献中的混乱。因此，我们将Triangularia与Podospora成为同义词，并建议将Podospora的类型种从fimiseda移至P. anserina，或将Podosporaceae内的所有物种都放在Podospora属中。anserina作为当前名称，以确保稳定性并最大程度地减少科学文献中的混乱。因此，我们将Triangularia与Podospora成为同义词，并建议将Podospora的类型种从fimiseda移至P. anserina，或将Podosporaceae内的所有物种都放在Podospora属中。anserina作为当前名称，以确保稳定性并最大程度地减少科学文献中的混乱。因此，我们将Triangularia与Podospora成为同义词，并建议将Podospora的类型种从fimiseda移至P. anserina，或将Podosporaceae内的所有物种都放在Podospora属中。
