Potential active compounds were separated from fermentation broth by activity tracking and identified in structure by spectrum. The results showed that this fungus had common characteristics as Basidiomycota in morphology. According to 18S rDNA and internal transcribed space (ITS) DNA sequencing, this fungus was identified as Bjerkandera adusta in family Meruliaceae. Two active compounds viz., veratric acid and erythro-1-(3, 5-dichlone-4- methoxyphenyl)-1, 2-propylene glycol were identified by nuclear magnetic resonance spectrum and mass spectrum. Veratric acid was separated for the first time from any fungus, while erythro-1-(3, 5-dichlone-4-methoxyphenyl)-1, 2-propylene glycol was once reported in Bjerkandera.

Collected from subtropical Yunnan Province in southwest China, Rhomboidia is characterized by annual, stipitate basidiomes with rhomboid pileus, a monomitic hyphal system with thick-walled generative hyphae bearing clamp connections, and broadly ellipsoid basidiospores with thin, hyaline, smooth walls. Phylogenetic analyses of ITS and LSU nuclear RNA gene regions showed that Rhomboidia is in Steccherinaceae and formed as distinct, monophyletic lineage within a subclade that includes Nigroporus, Trullella, and Flabellophora.

  • Polypore Fungi As a Flagship Group to Indicate Changes in Biodiversity – a Test Case from Estonia Kadri Runnel1* , Otto Miettinen2 and Asko Lõhmus1
    Runnel et al. IMA Fungus (2021) 12:2 https://doi.org/10.1186/s43008-020-00050-y IMA Fungus RESEARCH Open Access Polypore fungi as a flagship group to indicate changes in biodiversity – a test case from Estonia Kadri Runnel1* , Otto Miettinen2 and Asko Lõhmus1 Abstract Polyporous fungi, a morphologically delineated group of Agaricomycetes (Basidiomycota), are considered well studied in Europe and used as model group in ecological studies and for conservation. Such broad interest, including widespread sampling and DNA based taxonomic revisions, is rapidly transforming our basic understanding of polypore diversity and natural history. We integrated over 40,000 historical and modern records of polypores in Estonia (hemiboreal Europe), revealing 227 species, and including Polyporus submelanopus and P. ulleungus as novelties for Europe. Taxonomic and conservation problems were distinguished for 13 unresolved subgroups. The estimated species pool exceeds 260 species in Estonia, including at least 20 likely undescribed species (here documented as distinct DNA lineages related to accepted species in, e.g., Ceriporia, Coltricia, Physisporinus, Sidera and Sistotrema). Four broad ecological patterns are described: (1) polypore assemblage organization in natural forests follows major soil and tree-composition gradients; (2) landscape-scale polypore diversity homogenizes due to draining of peatland forests and reduction of nemoral broad-leaved trees (wooded meadows and parks buffer the latter); (3) species having parasitic or brown-rot life-strategies are more substrate- specific; and (4) assemblage differences among woody substrates reveal habitat management priorities. Our update reveals extensive overlap of polypore biota throughout North Europe. We estimate that in Estonia, the biota experienced ca. 3–5% species turnover during the twentieth century, but exotic species remain rare and have not attained key functions in natural ecosystems.

Muito obrigado pela paciência pois eu sei que aturar-me não é fácil. Para o Rui, Isabel e seus lindos filhotes (Zé e Tó) por me distraírem quando preciso, mas pelo lado oposto, me mandarem trabalhar. O incentivo que me deram foi extraordinário. Obrigado por serem quem são! Ainda, e não menos importante, ao João Moreira, aquele amigo especial que, pela sua presença, ajuda e distrai quando necessário.

The following loci were examined: the species delimitation internal transcribed spacers of nuclear ribosomal DNA (ITS nrDNA), the intergenic spacers of nuclear ribosomal DNA (IGS taxonomy nrDNA), two fragments of the protein-coding RNA polymerase II subunit 2 (RPB2), and two fragments of the translation elongation factor 1-α (EF1-α). Our results indicate that the name H. macaronesicum includes at least two separate species, one of which is newly described as Hyphoderma paramacaronesicum. The two species are readily distinguished based on the various loci analysed, namely ITS, IGS, RPB2 and EF1-α. Published online: 8 August 2018. INTRODUCTION (PSR, phylogenetic species recognition).

  • Notes on Corticioid Fungi of the Czech Republic. I. Phlebia Acanthocystis and Phlebia Bispora (Meruliaceae)
    CZECH MYCOLOGY 69(1): 65–76, JUNE 9, 2017 (ONLINE VERSION, ISSN 1805-1421) Notes on corticioid fungi of the Czech Republic. I. Phlebia acanthocystis and Phlebia bispora (Meruliaceae) LUCIE ZÍBAROVÁ Resslova 26, Ústí nad Labem, CZ-40001, Czech Republic; [email protected] Zíbarová L. (2017): Notes on corticioid fungi of the Czech Republic. I. Phlebia acanthocystis and Phlebia bispora (Meruliaceae). – Czech Mycol. 69(1): 65–76. Two rare species of Phlebia s.l. (Meruliaceae) with hydnoid hymenophore are described and il- lustrated. Macro- and microscopic characters of Phlebia acanthocystis and P. bispora are described and supplemented with photographs of in situ fruitbodies and line drawings. Distribution and ecol- ogy in Europe are discussed for both species. They are compared to similar taxa found in Europe. Key words: Corticiaceae, Mycoacia, Mycoaciella, distribution, rare species.

Phlebia acanthocystis a Phlebia bispora (Meruliaceae). – Czech Mycol. 69(1): 65–76. V článku jsou popsány a ilustrovány dva vzácné druhy rodu Phlebia s. l. (Meruliaceae)sostnitým hymenoforem. K oběma druhům je poskytnut makro- a mikroskopický popis doplněný o fotografie plodnic in situ a kresby mikroznaků. Je diskutováno jejich rozšíření a ekologie v Evropě a jsou srovnány s podobnými druhy v Evropě zaznamenanými. INTRODUCTION Corticioid fungi (Corticiaceae s.l.) are a diverse and heterogeneous group of macrofungi sharing gross morphology of resupinate or effused-reflexed fruit- bodies with smooth, tuberculate, phlebioid, odontoid, hydnoid, merulioid or poroid hymenophores.
