Pune, Maharashtra (India) *Corresponding author A B S T R A C T K e y w o r d s During field and literature surveys, a rich mycobiota was observed in the vegetation of India. The heavy rainfall and high humidity favours the growth of Fungi; Aphyllophoraceous fungi. The present work materially adds to our knowledge of Aphyllophorales; Poroid and Non-Poroid Aphyllophorales from all over India. A total of more than Basidiomycetes; 190 genera of 52 families and total 1175 species of from poroid and non-poroid semi-evergreen Aphyllophorales fungi were reported from Indian literature till 2012.The checklist gives the total count of aphyllophoraceous fungal diversity from India which is also forest.. a valued addition for comparing aphyllophoraceous diversity in the world.

This thesis initiates a study of a mycorrhizal mushroom community on the Somerharju phytoremediation project site in Finland. An inventory of the mycorrhizal mushrooms concerning mushroom abundance, species richness and biodiversity was done during the season of 2015. The distribution of the mushrooms over the site was analyzed in relation to PAH-pollution levels and tree cuttings on the site. A significant dependence of fungal species richness and biodiversity on a cutting type was detected. The dependence of mushroom abundance, species richness and biodiversity on a PAH-pollution level was not statistically significant. Tolerance of

Clitocybe and Mycena species dominate among the leaf litter inhabiting species. Fallen branches have the highest species diversity. The host-specific Peniophora aurantiaca is one of the most conspicuous and most frequent species. KEY WORDS — lignicolous and foliicolous fungi, diversity, subalpine alder stand Introduction Bush-like Green alder (Alnus alnobetula (Ehrh.) K. Koch, syn. Alnus viridis (Chaix) DC. aggr., Betulaceae) is present in subarctic and in some subalpine vegetation types of the Northern Hemisphere. In the Alps two forms exist, Alnus alnobetula s.str. and Alnus alnobetula ssp. brembana (Rota) H.J.P. Winkl. with smaller leaves. Green alder is an early successional shrub that invades screes, avalanche slide paths and pastures in the subalpine zone of the Alpine, Carpathian and Dinaric chains in Europe. In the Western Alps, Green alder stands (Alnetum viridis Br.-Bl.) are widely spread at an altitude of 1000–2000 m, in Switzerland MYCOTAXON link page 120: 506 Expert reviewers: Cvetomir M.

DOI: 10.1007/s12010-015-1707-y Characterisation of a Recombinant Patchoulol Synthase Variant for Biocatalytic Production of Terpenes 1 & 1 & 1 & 1 & Thore Frister Steffen Hartwig Semra Alemdar Katharina Schnatz Laura 1 1 1 Thöns & Thomas Scheper & Sascha Beutel Abstract The patchoulol synthase (PTS) is a multi-product sesquiterpene synthases which is the central enzyme for biosynthesis of patchouli essential oil in the patchouli plant. Sesqui- terpene synthases catalyse the formation of various complex carbon backbones difficult to approach by organic synthesis. Here, we report the characterisation of a recombinant patchoulol synthase complementary DNA (cDNA) variant (PTS var. 1), exhibiting significant amino acid exchanges compared to the native PTS. The product spectrum using the natural substrate E,E-farnesyl diphosphate (FDP) as well as terpenoid products resulting from con- versions employing alternative substrates was analysed by GC-MS. In respect to a potential use as a biocatalyst, important enzymatic parameters such as the optimal reaction conditions, kinetic behaviour and the product selectivity were studied as well. Adjusting the reaction conditions, an increased patchoulol ratio in the recombinant essential oil was achieved. Nevertheless, the ratio remained lower than in plant-derived patchouli oil. As alternative substrates, several prenyl diposphates were accepted and converted in numerous compounds by the PTS var. 1, revealing its great biocatalytic potential. Keywords Terpene synthase . Sesquiterpenes . Biocatalysis . Patchoulol . Essential oil Introduction In nature, sesquiterpene synthases catalyse the key step in the biosynthesis of sesquiterpenes.
