Taxon-specific DNA barcoding thresholds in Fungi: much needed, but does it work??? Simple comparison of species-level thresholds (as % in figure) for ITS2 reveals high incongruence and no correlation among teams. Reviewers, please do not insist on using these!

MDPI 100% APC vouchers (free publishing) - a scam, because editors find their ways of fully charging for publishing, for example not being the first author or resubmitting after reject/encourage resubmission. My solution: withdrawn accepted manuscript.
