Polypores play a crucial role in energy recycling and forest regeneration ecosystems. The majority of them are wood degraders; some pathogens others ectomycorrhizal symbionts. basidiocarps provide food shelter for many organisms, mostly invertebrates, but also vertebrates, as well medicine humans. Despite extensive research on the species diversity phylogenetic relationships polypores recent years, there remains lack comprehensive understanding their distribution patterns composition at...
Wood-rotting basidiomycetes have been investigated in the Chinese forest ecosystem for past 30 years. Two hundred and five pathogenic wood-decayers belonging to 9 orders, families, 74 genera found native forests, plantations, gardens. Seventy-two species (accounting 35% of total species) are reported as fungi China first time. Among these pathogens, 184 polypores, nine corticioid fungi, eight agarics hydnoid basidiomycetes. One seventy-seven 86%) cause white rot, while 28 14%) result brown...
Based on morphological and molecular data, a new species of Albatrellus sensu stricto, A. alpinus sp. nov., is described from Yunnan Province southwestern China. characterized by buff to pale yellow pileal surface, simple septate hyphae, shapeless oily substance present in all hyphae but seldom tramal small amyloid basidiospores. Phylogenetic analyses based the nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer (nrITS) large subunit RNA gene (nLSU) indicated that nested within stricto. A key...
The polypores with shallow pores from tropical Asia and America are studied. Our molecular phylogeny based on the internal transcribed spacer (ITS), large subunit nuclear ribosomal RNA gene (nLSU), translation elongation factor 1-α (TEF1), largest of polymerase II (RPB1) demonstrates six clades formed among Porogramme related genera. Two new genera, Cyanoporus Pseudogrammothele, established, represent Porogramme, Cyanoporus, Grammothele, Epithele, Theleporus, respectively. clock analyses...
A survey on the diversity of wood-decay fungi in southeast Xizang was carried out from 2019 to 2023.

Species composition analysis showed that there fifteen dominant families with more than 10 species. These include 459 accounting for 82.26% total species found. Thirty-three genera five or are...
Phylogenetic analyses inferred from the nuc rDNA ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 (ITS) data set and combined 2-locus [5.8S + 28S (nLSU)] of taxa Trechisporales around world show that Sistotremastrum family forms a monophyletic lineage within Trechisporales. Bayesian evolutionary divergence time on two sets 5.8S nLSU sequences indicate an ancient Hydnodontaceae during Triassic period (224.25 Mya). is characterized by resupinate thin basidiomata, smooth, verruculose, or odontoid-semiporoid hymenophore,...
The wood-inhabiting fungi refer to large basidiomycetes that grow on various woody materials and are distributed in forest ecosystems, some of which have important economic value. In the present study, two new resupinate, adnate, fungal taxa, Botryobasidiumlatihyphum B.zhejiangensis, introduced based morphological molecular characteristics. A phylogenetic study sequence data from internal transcribed spacers (ITS) subunit (nLSU) regions supported species genus Botryobasidium. Maximum...
Bark is vital for woody plants, providing protection, transporting nutrients and water, storing essential resources. For fire-prone ecosystems, bark thickness a key adaptive trait conferring fire resistance. Few studies have been conducted on the drivers of variation in widely distributed Larix gmelinii (Rupr.) Kuzen Great Xing’an Mountains region, southern edge East Siberia, where surface disturbances are frequent. To elucidate relationships between (inner vs. outer bark) L. plant size,...
Phaeolus schweinitzii (Fr.) Pat. was originally described in Europe and is considered a common forest pathogen on conifers the Northern Hemisphere. Our molecular phylogeny based samples from China, Europe, North America confirms that P. species complex, including six taxa. sensu stricto has distribution Eurasia; Northeast Southwest China are distantly related to stricto, two new after morphological, phylogenetic, geographical analyses. The growing Larix, Picea, Pinus as asiae-orientalis....
Two new wood-rotting fungi in the family Hymenochaetaceae, Fulvifomes dracaenicola sp. nov. and Hymenochaete , are described illustrated from tropical China based on morphological characteristics molecular data. It is worth to mention that both of them grow Dracaena cambodiana which a kind angiosperm tree distributed regions. F. characterised by perennial, pileate, triquetrous basidioma with yellowish brown fresh pores becoming honey yellow silk sheening upon drying, dimitic hyphal system...
Megasporoporia sensu lato has recently been intensively studied in China and South America, four independent clades representing genera have recognized phylogenetically. In this study, more samples, mostly from subtropical tropical Asia, Oceania, East Africa, are analyzed. A phylogeny based on a 4-gene dataset of sequences (ITS + nLSU mtSSU tef) confirmed the presence lato: Jorgewrightia, Mariorajchenbergia, Megasporia, stricto. Six new species, Jorgewrightia austroasiana, irregularis,...
Brown-rot fungi are types of that selectively degrade cellulose and hemicellulose from wood perhaps the most important agents involved in degradation products dead forest ecosystem. Two new brown-rot species, collected southern China, nested within clades Fomitopsis sensu stricto Oligoporus stricto, respectively. Their positions strongly supported Maximum Likelihood phylogenetic tree concatenated internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions, large subunit nuclear ribosomal RNA gene (nLSU),...
Two new species of Antrodia, A. aridula and variispora, are described from western China. Phylogeny based on a six-gene dataset (ITS + nLSU nSSU mtSSU TEF1 RPB2) demonstrates that samples the two form independent lineages within clade Antrodia s.s. different in morphology existing Antrodia. is characterized by its annual resupinate basidiocarps with angular to irregular pores 2-3 mm each oblong ellipsoid cylindrical basidiospores measuring 9-12 × 4.2-5.3 μm, growing gymnosperm wood dry...
A new gelatinous species, Calocera tibetica, is described from southwest China based on morphological and molecular evidence. It characterized by stipitate, tough, gelatinous, dichotomously branched, dendroid or staghorn-like basidioma with blunt tips, subclavate to clavate basidia measuring 45.0–53.0 × 4.8–6.0 µm, hyaline, oblong-ellipsoid navicular, 3–4-septate mature basidiospores 9.0–14.0 5.0–6.3 μm.

Abstract Mycobonia and Pseudofavolus (Polyporales, Basidiomycota) are polyporoid genera with tropical subtropical distribution. Both morphologically similar in presenting flabelliform to conchate subsessile basidiomata, a dimitic hyphal system, consisting of clamped generative hyphae skeleto-binding that produce large basidiospores smooth, thin walls. However, while species present poroid hymenophore, it is stereoid pegs resemble teeth. have controversial taxonomy, the phylogenetic...
