Fungi of North East Victoria Online Agarics Agarics Agarics Agarics Fungi of North East Victoria An Identication and Conservation Guide North East Victoria encompasses an area of almost 20,000 km2, bounded by the Murray River to the north and east, the Great Dividing Range to the south and Fungi the Warby Ranges to the west. From box ironbark woodlands and heathy dry forests, open plains and wetlands, alpine herb elds, montane grasslands and of North East Victoria tall ash forests, to your local park or backyard, fungi are found throughout the region. Every fungus species contributes to the functioning, health and An Identification and Conservation Guide resilience of these ecosystems.

Also note the variation in colour and shape that can result from exposure to varying weather conditions. This will give you a sense of the range of variation within the species. Also, take a little mirror with you so you can observe the nature of the underside of the specimen. Fungi Fungus Names Each species is represented by a scientic name and a common name (where one exists). The majority of Australian fungi are yet to be formally named and some are only identied to genus level.

Current Research in Environmental & Applied Mycology 5(3), 213–247, Doi 10.5943/cream/5/3/6 Abstract This paper includes the results of eco-taxonomic studies of coprophilous mushrooms in Punjab, India. The information is based on the survey to dung localities of the state during the various years from 2007-2011. A total number of 172 collections have been observed, growing as saprobes on dung of various domesticated and wild herbivorous animals in pastures, open areas, zoological parks, and on dung heaps along roadsides or along village ponds, etc. High coprophilous mushrooms’ diversity has been established and a number of rare and sensitive species recorded with the present study. The observed collections belong to 95 species spread over 20 genera and 07 families of the order Agaricales. The present paper discusses the distribution of these mushrooms in Punjab among different seasons, regions, habitats, and growing habits along with their economic utility, habitat management and conservation. This is the first attempt in which various dung localities of the state has been explored systematically to ascertain the diversity, seasonal availability, distribution and ecology of coprophilous mushrooms.

The mycelial growth performance on indigenous culture media and the optimum physical conditions (pH, aeration and illumination) of C. comatus as a prelude to its domestication were investigated in this study. In our desire to develop technology for its aseptic cultivation for our immediate plan of using this mushroom for nutriceutical purposes, we have tried growing this mushroom under sterile condition. As such, the amino acid profile and toxicity of C. comatus were also elucidated. Results of our investigation revealed that C. comatus grown in sealed plates of coconut water gelatin (pH 6.5) produced very dense mycelial growth, 6 days after incubation in the dark. Early initiation of fruiting bodies was observed in bottles containing previously sterilized sawdust (8 parts): rice grit (2 parts) formulation.

Coniferous forests of Pakistan are rich in mycodiversity and Suillus species are found as early appearing fungi in the vicinity of conifers. This study reports the diversity of Suillus collected during a period of three (3) years (2008-2011). From 32 basidiomata of Suillus collected, 12 species of this genus were identified. These basidiomata were characterized morphologically, and phylogenetically by amplifying and sequencing the ITS region of rDNA. © 2014 Friends Science Publishers Keywords: Moist temperate forests; PCR; rDNA; Ectomycorrhizae Introduction adequate temperature make the environment suitable for the growth of mushrooms in these forests.

Abstract: Mycomedicine is a unique class of natural medicine that has been widely used in Asian countries for thousands of years. Modern mycomedicine consists of fruiting bodies, spores, or other tissues of medicinal fungi, as well as bioactive components extracted from them, including polysaccha- rides and, triterpenoids, etc. Since the discovery of the famous fungal extract, penicillin, by Alexander Fleming in the late 19th century, researchers have realised the significant antibiotic and other medic- inal values of fungal extracts. As medicinal fungi and fungal metabolites can induce apoptosis or autophagy, enhance the immune response, and reduce metastatic potential, several types of mush- rooms, such as Ganoderma lucidum and Grifola frondosa, have been extensively investigated, and anti- cancer drugs have been developed from their extracts. Although some studies have highlighted the anti-cancer properties of a single, specific mushroom, only limited reviews have summarised diverse medicinal fungi as mycomedicine. In this review, we not only list the structures and functions of pharmaceutically active components isolated from mycomedicine, but also summarise the mecha- Citation: Dai, R.; Liu, M.; Nik Nabil, W.N.; Xi, Z.; Xu, H.

Coprinus comatus is a novel cultivated edible fungus, hailed as a new preeminent breed of mushroom. However, C. comatus is difficult to keep fresh at room temperature after harvest due to high respiration, browning, self-dissolve and lack of physical protection. Methods. In order to extend the shelf life of C. comatus and reduce its loss in storage, changes in quality, biochemical content, cell wall metabolism and ultrastructure of C. comatus (C.c77) under 4 ◦C and 90% RH storage regimes were investigated in this study. Results. The results showed that: (1) After 10 days of storage, mushrooms appeared acutely browning, cap opening and flowing black juice, rendering the mushrooms commercially unacceptable. (2) The activity of SOD, CAT, POD gradually increased, peaked at the day 10, up to 31.62 U g−1 FW, 16.51 U g−1 FW, 0.33 U g−1 FW, respectively. High SOD, CAT, POD activity could be beneficial in protecting cells from ROS-induced injuries, alleviating lipid peroxidation and stabilizing membrane integrity. (3) The activities of chitinase, β-1,3-glucanase were significantly increased. Higher degrees of cell wall degradation observed during storage might be due to those enzymes' high activities.

The name Paxillus ammoniavirescens was published in ‘Spring 1999’ [northern hemisphere] and that of Paxillus validus in August 1999, making P. ammoniavirescens the correct name for this species. A variant without pigments fits into P. involutus, suggesting that P. albidulus might be an albino variant of any species in the P. involutus complex. Paxillus ammoniavirescens is widespread in Europe and has been introduced in the southern hemisphere; P. obscurosporus is known from China and Europe; and the two taxa in the P. involutus clade are reported from Europe and from North America. Keywords—Paxillaceae, phylogenetic species, pigment-free variants Introduction The genus Paxillus Fr. is widely distributed in the northern hemisphere, forms ectomycorrhiza with a range of host trees, is extensively used in ectomycorrhizal research (e.g. Ek 1997, Leake et al. 2001, Prendergast-Miller et al. 2011, Wilkinson et al. 2010), and is a nightmare for species recognition.
