Tuber qujingense and T. songlu are described as new species based on both phylogenetic morphological analyses. Phylogenetically, these two clearly distinct from of Tuber. Morphologically, have whitish smooth ascomata, pubescent prosenchymatous peridium 1–4 spored asci; however, is characterized by its fusiform ascospores taller alveolar walls (4.5–11 µm) while has larger ellipsoid lower (1–7 µm).
Tuber is a rare edible and medicinal fungus with global distribution. The Macrosporum lineage within relatively small infrequent clade, which has been receiving increasing attention due to the presence of an endangered species, T. gigantosporum. However, species diversity, phylogenetic relationships, geographic distribution, ecological characteristics group remain poorly understood. Through extensive sampling combining accurate available specimen mycorrhizal data, 19 specimens from Southwest...
Abstract Ectomycorrhizal (EM) fungi play important roles in nutrient cycling and plant community establishment forest ecosystems. Effects of EM formation on global alterations the transcriptome metabolome during plant‐fungal interaction key metabolites involved development are largely unknown. Here, dual RNA‐Seq untargeted metabolomic analyses were used to reveal stage‐specific core responses Pinus yunnanensis Lactarius deliciosus mycorrhizal colonization. We found that L. colonization P....
Tuber indicum is an ectomycorrhizal ascomycete that produces edible ascocarps. Based on a number of specimens with known exact origin, we investigate the speciation complex in southwest China. Internal transcribed spacer (ITS) and simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers were used study. Phylogeography population genetics analyses combined to detect 31 wild populations T. complex. Two distinct lineages, cf. himalayense, identified exhibited significant phylogeographic structures genetic...
Three new species of Tuber, T. albicavum, laojunshanense, and umbilicicavatum belonging to the Puberulum phylogroup, are described based on specimens collected in alpine Abies forests at 3600–4000 m, Northwest Yunnan, China. albicavum is distinguished by its ascomata with a single chamber 0.5–1.8 cm diameter, an apical opening 0.2–0.6 light golden-brown alveolate reticulate ascospores up 30 μm length; laojunshanense characterized having slightly tomentose surface, sometimes white navel,...
Based on a multi-locus phylogeny of combined dataset ITS, LSU, tef1-α, and rpb2 comprehensive morphological analyses, we describe three new species from the Melanosporum group genus Tuber synonymize T. pseudobrumale melanoexcavatum. Phylogenetically, newly described species, yunnanense, melanoumbilicatum microexcavatum, differ significantly in genetic distance any previously known species. Morphologically, yunnanense is distinctly different its closest phylogenetically related longispinosum,...
Black truffles and white are widely studied around the world, but their effects on plant growth physiological responses, mycorrhizosphere bacterial community of host remain unclear. Here, mycorrhizal colonization Castanopsis rockii by Tuber indicum (Chinese black truffle) T. lijiangense truffle), respectively, was induced in a greenhouse study, growth, responses communities were compared. The results show that both species significantly increased leaf photosynthetic rate, P concentration...
Three excavated truffle species Tuber badium, T. depressum and verrucosivolvum were described illustrated from southwest China. Molecular analyses based on ITS ITS-nrLSU concatenated dataset revealed that these are distinct the known ones of Tuber. differ other in a combination morphologically features including ascoma, gleba ascospore. Phylogenetic placements novel Excavatum group presented.
Phlebopus roseus is described as new based on collections from southwest China. Phylogenetic analyses of nuclear rDNA internal transcribed spacer region ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 (ITS) and portions 28S (28S), translation elongation factor 1-alpha (tef1), the largest second subunits RNA polymerase II (rpb1, rpb2) support P. a novel species in genus (Boletinellaceae, Boletales). The resembles portentosus but differs it that mature basidiomata have bright rose-red-colored stipe radiate tubular hymenophore...
We describe a new species of Tuber from Yunnan Province, China, based on molecular and morphological data. This is characterized by its snow-white ascomata, pubescent peridia subglobose or globose ascospores. sinoniveum sp. nov. phylogenetically closely related to T. sinosphaerosporum but differs in having ascospores with more meshes (3–9 along) glabrous peridia. Phylogenetic placement this novel the Puberulum group.
During surveys of hypogeous fungi in the Hengduan Mountains, south-western China, three specimens genus
A new Chinese truffle species, Tuber sinomacrosporum belongs to the Macrosporum group was illustrated and described, it is characterized by brownish-red ascoma, prosenchymatous peridium, dark brown gleba, 1(2) spored asci large ellipsoid ascospores with 2–6 μm high reticulate-alveolate. Molecular analysis of internal transcribed spacers (ITS) nuclear ribosomal DNA supports this species distinct from known within group. Phylogenetic relationships morphological differences between its related...
More specimens of Hydnotrya have been collected from southwestern China in recent years. Morphological and molecular analyses showed that they belonged to three species Hydnotrya, which two are new science, H.oblongispora H.zayuensis. The third one was H.laojunshanensis, previously reported 2013. described, their relationship other is discussed. H.laojunshanensis re-described more detail. main morphological characters 17 compared a key them provided as well.
Gomphus matijun, a new edible species, is described from southwestern China based on phylogenetic and morphological evidence. Phylogenetic analyses of the nrLSU ITS datasets indicated that G. matijun related to crassipes ludovicianus with weak statistical support in maximum likelihood but strong Bayesian analyses. characterized by its gray-blue blue or blue-purple pileus round irregular outline, relatively smaller basidiospores [9-11(-13) × 6-7(-8) μm], mostly 2-spored basidia, occurs...
Pachyphlodes atropurpurea and P. excavata are described as new species of truffles based on both phylogenetic morphological analyses. Phylogenetically these two clearly distinct from Pachyphlodes. Morphologically, is characterized by subglobose, purple black ascomata, ascospores with acute-tipped spines. its ascomata an obvious basal internal cavity slender fusiform asci (150–180 × 30–40 μm).
Hydnobolites is an ectomycorrhizal fungal genus with hypogeous ascomata in the family Pezizaceae (Pezizales). Molecular analyses of using both single (ITS) and concatenated gene datasets (ITS-nLSU) showed a total 223 sequences, including 92 newly gained sequences from Chinese specimens. Phylogenetic results based on these two revealed seven distinct phylogenetic clades. Among them, ITS tree confirmed presence at least 42 species Hydnobolites. Combined morphological observations molecular...
Hydnotrya qinghaiensis, a new species, is described from Tibetan Plateau, China. It characterized by the irregular globose, brownish and large ascomata. Morphologically, species differs closely related H. cerebriformis variiformis color, size, shape of ascocarp ascospores. A detailed description comparison with are provided, phylogenetic placement also discussed based on nuclear internal transcribed spacer region (ITS).
A new Choiromyces species was discovered at local wild mushroom markets in Songpan County, Sichuan, southwest China where it has been considered as a Chinese white truffle. Based on both morphological and phylogenetic analyses, the collection described sichuanensis sp. nov. This study confirms occurrence of members China.
