Abstract The Basidiomycota constitutes a major phylum of the kingdom Fungi and is second in species numbers to Ascomycota. present work provides an overview all validly published, currently used basidiomycete genera date single document. An outline provided, which includes 1928 names, with 1263 synonyms, are distributed 241 families, 68 orders, 18 classes four subphyla. We provide brief notes for each accepted genus including information on classification, number species, type life mode,...
This article is the ninth in series of Fungal Diversity Notes, where 107 taxa distributed three phyla, nine classes, 31 orders and 57 families are described illustrated. Taxa present study include 12 new genera, 74 species, combinations, two reference specimens, a re-circumscription epitype, 15 records sexual-asexual morph connections, hosts geographical distributions. Twelve genera comprise Brunneofusispora, Brunneomurispora, Liua, Lonicericola, Neoeutypella, Paratrimmatostroma,...
Abstract Wild mushrooms are a vital source of income and nutrition for many poor communities value to recreational foragers. Literature relating the edibility mushroom species continues expand, driven by an increasing demand wild mushrooms, wider interest in foraging, study traditional foods. Although numerous case reports have been published on edible doubt confusion persist regarding which safe suitable consume. Case often differ, evidence supporting stated properties can be incomplete or...
Fungi are highly diverse organisms, which provide multiple ecosystem services. However, compared with charismatic animals and plants, the distribution patterns conservation needs of fungi have been little explored. Here, we examined endemicity patterns, global change vulnerability priority areas for functional groups soil based on six surveys using a high-resolution, long-read metabarcoding approach. We found that all most peaks in tropical habitats, including Amazonia, Yucatan, West-Central...
Abstract The production of rechargeable batteries is rapidly expanding, and there are going to be new challenges in the near future about how potential environmental impact caused by disposal large volume used can minimized. Herein, a novel strategy proposed address these concerns applying biodegradable device technology. An eco‐friendly sodium‐ion secondary battery (SIB) developed through extensive material screening followed synthesis electrodes their seamless assembly with an...
How the multiple facets of soil fungal diversity vary worldwide remains virtually unknown, hindering management this essential species-rich group. By sequencing high-resolution DNA markers in over 4000 topsoil samples from natural and human-altered ecosystems across all continents, we illustrate distributions drivers different levels taxonomic phylogenetic fungi their ecological groups. We show impact precipitation temperature interactions on local species richness (alpha diversity)...
Tricholoma matsutake (pine mushroom, PM) is a prized mushroom in Asia due to its unique flavor and pine aroma. The fruiting body of PM forms only natural habitat forest), little known regarding the conditions required for successful generation bodies this species. Recent studies suggest that microbial interactions may be associated with growth PM; however, there have been few bacterial effects on growth. In study, we surveyed which bacteria can directly indirectly promote by using...
Polyporoid and corticioid fungi are among the most important wood-decay fungi. Not only do they contribute to nutrient cycling by decomposing wood debris, but also valuable sources for natural products. wood-inhabiting were investigated in Odaesan National Park. Fruit bodies collected identified based on morphological molecular analyses using 28S internal transcribed spacer regions of DNA sequences. As a result, total 149 species, 69 genera, 22 families, 11 orders recognized. Half (74...
Species in the genus Ganoderma include several ecologically important and pathogenic fungal species whose medicinal economic value is substantial. Due to highly similar morphological features within , identification of has relied heavily on DNA sequencing using BLAST searches, which are only reliable if GenBank submissions accurately labeled. In this study, we examined 113 specimens collected from 1969 2016 various regions Korea multigene analysis (internal transcribed spacer, translation...
Abstract Members of the genus Penicillium are commonly isolated from various terrestrial and marine environments, play an important ecological role as a decomposer. To gain insight into in intertidal zones, we investigated diversity community structure using culture-dependent technique culture independent metagenomic approach ITS (ITS-NGS) partial β-tubulin ( BenA -NGS) targets. The obtained isolates were tested for halotolerance, enzyme activity, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs)...
The taxonomic positions of the genera Ruegeria and Silicibacter were evaluated by a polyphasic investigation. It was evident from 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis that both are closely related as they formed monophyletic clade with high similarities (96.9-98.2 %). Several properties commonly found in these taxa strongly suggest should be classified same genus. Further, comparative study based on DNA-DNA hybridization, phenotypic characterization chemotaxonomic indicated members this clade,...
Distinguishing individual Russula species has been difficult due to extensive phenotypic plasticity and obscure morphological anatomical discontinuities. Due highly similar macroscopic features, such as the presence of a red-cap, identification within subgenus Amoenula is particularly difficult. Three Amoneula have reported in Korea. We used combination morphology three molecular markers, internal transcribed spacer (ITS), 28S nuclear ribosomal large subunit (LSU), RNA polymerase II gene...
Tricholoma matsutake, the pine mushroom, is a valuable forest product with high economic value in Asia, and plays an important ecological role as ectomycorrhizal fungus. Around host tree, T. matsutake hyphae generate distinctive soil aggregating environment called fairy ring, where fruiting bodies form. Because dominate near this species has potential to influence microbial community. To explore of on communities, we compared community predicted bacterial function between two different...
