Received: 3 March 2020; Accepted: 12 March 2020; Published: 16 March 2020 Abstract: Auricularia heimuer is one of the most popular edible fungi in China. In this study, the whole genome of A. heimuer was sequenced on the Illumina HiSeq X system and compared with other mushrooms genomes. As a wood-rotting fungus, a total of 509 carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes) were annotated in order to explore its potential capabilities on wood degradation. The glycoside hydrolases (GH) family genes in the A. heimuer genome were more abundant than the genes in the other 11 mushrooms genomes. The A. heimuer genome contained 102 genes encoding class III, IV, and V ethanol dehydrogenases. Evolutionary analysis based on 562 orthologous single-copy genes from 15 mushrooms showed that Auricularia formed an early independent branch of Agaricomycetes. The mating-type locus of A. heimuer was located on linkage group 8 by genetic linkage analysis. -

Compositional analyses of the main cultivated varieties have revealed that, on a dry weight basis,UNESCO mushrooms normally contain – between EOLSS 19 and 35 percent protein. The low total fat content, and the high proportion of polyunsaturated fatty acids (72 to 85 percent) relativeSAMPLE to total fatty acids, is considered CHAPTERS a significant contributor to the health value of mushrooms. The recent application of modern analytical techniques has provided a scientific basis for their medicinal properties. The multi-functional effects of mushroom nutriceuticals/dietary supplements are based on the enhancement of the host’s immune system and hold considerable potential benefit to health care because of the absence of major side effects. -

In this study we focused on the wound healing promoting effect of polysaccharides purified from Tremella fuciformis and Auricularia auricula by using the ex-vivo porcine skin wound healing model (PSWHM) as a tool for wound healing evaluation due to human ethics and animal right concerns, and more practical and high throughput experiment. Using previously reported protocol with modifications, purified polysaccharides from A. auricula and T. fuciformis were obtained at 0.84 and 2.0% yields (w/w), 86.60 and 91.22% purity, respectively, with small amounts of nucleic acid and protein contamination. The PSWHMs (3mm circular wound) were divided into five groups, each group (n=22) was treated with one of the following concentrations of polysaccharides extracts (1, 10 and 100µg/wound of T. fuciformis or A. auricula) or control solutions (10µl 10mM PBS), or 10µl 25ng/ml EGF (internal control). Then the treated PSWHMs were cultured at 37ºC with 5% CO2 for 48 hours before histological and microscopic evaluation. Epidermal or keratinocyte migration distances from the edges of each wound were measured, normalized with the PBS control group and expressed as mean%. -

The objective of present work was analyzed EPS and evaluate the effect on the glucose, cholesterol, HDL, triglycerides, glutamic-pyruvic transaminase (GPT), urea level in the plasma of rats with type 1 diabetes mellitus (DM1) induced by high sugar diet and streptozotocin. Beta-glucan and total sugar from T. fuciformis was determined and the major quantity was alfa linked glucose. Concentration used for animals was 1mmol and 2mmol of EPS. Male Wistar rats were separated in two groups where one was induced diabetes mellitus (DM1) with streptozotocin and another with high sugar diet. The rats were allocated as follows: control that received commercial pellet; control that received polysaccharide; diabetic group that received streptozotocin or high sugar diet; diabetic group that received 1mmol or 2mmol from polysaccharide obtained from different T. -

Phylogeny of Tremella and cultiviation of T. fuciformis in Taiwan Chee-Jen CHEN Abstract: Tremella fuciformis is a jelly fungus, so called Silver Ear, and very common in the world. It has been used as medicine in China, and is also recognized as natural food in Taiwan. Because of its values in medicine and economy, it is worth understanding its phylogeny and cultivation.

Cryptococcosis is one of important mycozoonosis that affecting human and animals. It is primarily caused by Cryptococcus neoformans and Cryptococcus gattii, which are mainly affecting human and animal. Agent is found in soil contaminated with avian droppings or eucalyptus trees and decaying woods. Cryptococcus neoformans can survive in pigeon drop for about 20 years. The inhalation is principal mode of entry of the pathogen. Cryptococcosis occurs in sporadic and epidemic form in susceptible hosts. The disease is most often found in cats but has also been reported in cattle, dogs, horses, sheep, goat and other animals. Cryptococcosis is the first manifestation of HIV infected patients to potentiate HIV infection. Diagnosis is application of Pal’s sunflower seed medium and Narayan stain help in the study of this enigmatic mycosis in humans as well as in animals.

Mediterranean Forested Wetlands Are Yeast Hotspots for Bioremediation: A
www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Mediterranean forested wetlands are yeast hotspots for bioremediation: a case study using Received: 29 March 2018 Accepted: 16 October 2018 azo dyes Published: xx xx xxxx Ana C. Sampaio, Rui M. F. Bezerra & Albino A. Dias Forested wetlands are interfaces between terrestrial and aquatic environments. These ecosystems play an important role in the hydrology, chemistry and biodiversity maintenance. Despite their high microbial diversity, there has been a lack of attention to the potential of their yeast communities. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the potential of yeasts isolated from a Mediterranean forested wetlands in decolorizing azo dyes. Azo dyes are synthetic, and highly recalcitrant to degradation. Ninety-two out of 560 isolates were randomly chosen to assess their ability to decolorize fve azo dyes. Hierarchical clustering based on medium color changes during incubations was used to evaluate the isolates’ decolorization performance. All of the isolates that best degraded the 5 dyes tested were identifed as Basidiomycota (Filobasidiales, Tremellales and Sporidiobolales). This work identifes new azo dye-degrading yeast species, and supports the hypothesis that forested wetlands are a niche for yeasts with bioremediation potential - namely azo dyes removal. Forested wetlands are interfaces between terrestrial and freshwater systems. Tese areas, naturally fooded or saturated by surface or groundwater, support a signifcant component of woody vegetation that is well adapted to fooded or poorly aerated soils1. Flooded forests are particularly important in global hydrology, in the carbon cycle, in nutrient fltration, as carbon sinks, and in maintaining biodiversity2,3. Tey are one of the most fragile and threatened ecosystems in the world.
