The wild gourmet mushroom Boletus edulis and its close allies are of significant ecological economic importance. They found throughout the Northern Hemisphere, but despite their ubiquity there still many unresolved issues with regard to taxonomy, systematics biogeography this group mushrooms. Most phylogenetic studies so far have characterized samples from North America Europe little information is available on other areas, including ecologically geographically diverse regions China. Here we...

AbstractCorneroboletus was erected in the Boletaceae to accommodate Boletus indecorus originally described from southeastern Asia. The mucilaginous surface of basidioma, ixohyphoepithelium pileipellis and irregularly warty bacillate ornamentation basidiospores distinguish this fungus other species Boletaceae. Phylogenetic placement investigated further with molecular data including LSU rRNA concatenated alignment nrLSU, 5.8S rpb2 genes, an independent lineage among existing genera suggested...

The morphology, ecology, and phylogenetic relationships of specimens the family Boletaceae from subtropical tropical China were investigated. Four species, Butyriboletushuangnianlaii, Lanmaoamacrocarpa, Neoboletusmultipunctatus, Sutoriussubrufus, are new to science. Chalciporusradiatus Caloboletusxiangtoushanensis redescribed. Caloboletusguanyui is proposed replace Boletusquercinus Hongo, an illegitimate later homonym. recently described Tylopiluscallainus synonymized with Japanese...

Veloporphyrellus is a genus known from North and Central America, southeastern Asia, Africa. Because species of this are phenotypically similar to some taxa in several genera, such as Boletellus, Leccinum, Strobilomyces, Suillus Tylopilus s.l. belonging Boletales, its phylogenetic disposition has never been addressed. We analyzed four DNA regions, the nuclear ribosomal LSU tef-1α, mitochondrial mtSSU atp6 genes, investigate Veloporphyrellus. Although monophyly systematic placement within...

Crocinoboletus is described as a new genus of Boletaceae to accommodate Boletus rufoaureus and B. laetissimus, characterized by its brilliant orange color basidiomata caused the presence unusual boletocrocin polyene pigments, bluish olivaceous staining all parts when bruised, smooth basidiospores, pileipellis which has an interwoven trichoderm at middle part pileus cutis margin pileus. Prior molecular phylogenetic analyses also confirmed two taxa are not members s.s., but form well-supported...

Pseudosperma citrinostipes sp. nov. from southwestern China is described and illustrated based on morphological, ecological, molecular data. The new species characterized by a medium-sized slender habit, straw yellow to golden pileus, crowded lamellae without olive tinges, an equal stipe with lemon fibrils, large ellipsoid subphaseoliform basidiospores, subfusiform lageniform cheilocystidia, the presence of caulocystidia at apex. Phylogenetically, P. placed in rimosum complex sister rest...

A headspace solid-phase microextraction (HS-SPME) coupled with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) was used to evaluate the profile of volatile components that accounted for aroma two edible mushrooms, viz. Phlebopus portentosus and Cantharellus yunnanensis. There were 51 69 compounds identified from P. C. yunnanensis, respectively. These mainly acids, hydrocarbons, ketones, esters, aldehydes, alcohols, which acetic acid most abundant among these components. Onanoic acid,...

Species of Craterellus are interesting and important due to their mycorrhizal properties, medicinal value, edibility. Despite extensive research on in China, its taxonomy remains inadequately understood. This study presents three newly described species Craterellus, namely C. albimarginatus, involutus, longitipes, identified through morphological phylogenetic analyses, with the goal refining Chinese Craterellus.

Species of Ganoderma (Ganodermataceae, Polyporales) have been extensively utilized in traditional Chinese medicine for over two millennia, owing to their remarkable medicinal properties and diverse chemical constituents. Hainan Island, located tropical China, harbors a rich diversity species. Among these, certain varieties referred as “Lingzhi Wang” or “Zhu Lingzhi” by indigenous communities are distinguished diminutive pilei slender stipes. Despite recognition, these species subject...

Species of the genus Retiboletus (Boletaceae, Boletales) in China are investigated based on morphology and phylogenetic analyses DNA sequences from nuc rDNA internal transcribed spacer (ITS) partial 28S regions translation elongation factor 1-a gene (tef1a). Six lineages recovered among collections studied. Five these documented presented present paper, including three new species two combinations. The remaining is not described due to paucity material. specimens identified as "R. ornatipes"...
