Abstract Mushroom-forming fungi (Agaricomycetes) have the greatest morphological diversity and complexity of any group fungi. They radiated into most niches fulfil diverse roles in ecosystem, including wood decomposers, pathogens or mycorrhizal mutualists. Despite importance mushroom-forming fungi, large-scale patterns their evolutionary history are poorly known, part due to lack a comprehensive dated molecular phylogeny. Here, using multigene genome-based data, we assemble 5,284-species...
Microbial symbioses have evolved repeatedly across the tree of life, but genetic changes underlying transitions to symbiosis are largely unknown, especially for eukaryotic microbial symbionts. We used genus Amanita, an iconic group mushroom-forming fungi engaged in ectomycorrhizal with plants, identify both origins and potential maintaining stability this mutualism. A multi-gene phylogeny reveals one origin within a single transition from saprotrophic decomposition dead organic matter...
Lethal amanitas (Amanita section Phalloideae) are a group of wild, fatal mushrooms causing many poisoning cases worldwide. However, the diversity and evolutionary history these lethal remain poorly known due to limited sampling insufficient gene fragments employed for phylogenetic analyses. In this study, five loci (nrLSU, ITS, rpb2, ef1-α β-tubulin) with widely geographic from East South Asia, Europe, North Central America, Africa Australia were analysed maximum-likelihood,...
Abstract Aim The geographical distributions of most fungal species are still poorly known; consequently, their origins and historical remain largely understudied. High levels cryptic diversity, scarce fossil records sampled regions can explain some these shortcomings. We extensively an iconic group edible ectomycorrhizal ( EM ) fungi, Amanita caesarea its allies, in order to infer evolutionary patterns on a global scale. Location Worldwide. Methods DNA sequences from three nuclear genes were...
Agaric fungi of the southern Appalachian Mountains including Great Smoky National Park are often heterozygous for rDNA internal transcribed spacer region (ITS) with >42% collections showing some heterozygosity indels and/or base-pair substitutions. For these collections, intra-individual haplotype divergence is typically less than 2%, but 3% exceeds that figure. We hypothesize high due to hybridization between agaric divergent haplotypes, possibly migrants from geographically isolated...
Mushrooms belonging to the genus Amanita were collected during a fungal biodiversity study in northern Thailand 2012–2014. Morphological characteristics and molecular phylogenetic analyses used identify mushrooms species. castanea is described as new science compared with phenetically phylogenetically similar It assignable stirps Citrina within series Mappae. Four other species, A. concentrica, rimosa, cf. rubromarginata zangii are first reports for Thailand; detailed morphological data...
Abstract Some of the effects past climate dynamics on plant and animal diversity make‐up have been relatively well studied, but to less extent in fungi. Pleistocene refugia are thought harbour high biological (i.e. phylogenetic lineages genetic diversity), mainly as a product increased reproductive isolation allele conservation. In addition, extinction rates erosion expected previously glaciated regions. consequences might involve changes range population size that can result divergence...
Amanita lippiae is described as a new species from semi-arid (caatinga) region of northeastern Brazil. It possesses clampless basidia and elongate to nearly cylindrical inamyloid basidiospores, bears irregular remains universal veil on the stipe bulb gemmatoid assignable sect. Amanita.
This paper describes basic requirements for a standard bus testing analog interconnects. The viewpoint is that of prospective users. An architecture such proposed. conception mixed-signal version boundary-scan and compatible with, indeed built upon, ANSI/IEEE Std 1149.1. goals in mind are the detection faults measurement interconnect parameters.

The aim of this paper is to compare edible mushroom availability between the two slopes La Malinche National Park in central México, and discuss possible relation their traditional use. Eight transects were set up. Samples collected weekly during rainy seasons years 1998–2000. Sixty-one species from a total area 3200 m 2 (0.32 ha). Over three-year period, diversity mushrooms ranged 21 28 taxa per transect line. Sporocarps produced at rate 2.06 6.05 kg/401.51 . highest richness production...
A new approach to testing based on boundary scan is discussed. This technique gives access individual chip pins by including a little standardized circuitry and test port (TAP) every IC. Boundary basics are reviewed, three principal types of tests that can be performed with the boundary-scan register described. They are: interconnect tests, using EXTEST (external test) instruction; INTEST sampling, SAMPLE instruction.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"...
Two new species found in Northwestern Pakistan the mushroom genus Amanita are described and illustrated. Phylogenetic data derived from nuclear ribosomal ITS LSU regions along with morphological characterizations indicate that these novel. cinis is a member of section Roanokenses, while A. olivovaginata representative Vaginatae. emodotrygon, recently state Uttarakhand, India, to Pakistan.
