Introduzione A partire dall’agosto 2003, uno degli autori (F.G.) ha raccolto, in un giardino privato, alcuni esemplari di una specie che, da subito, ha destato un certo interesse per la presenza di una volva alla base del gambo, un cappello con cuticola sericea, brillante al disco, e lamelle rosate. I primi esemplari, analizzati solo dal punto di vista macroscopico, non hanno portato ad una determinazione precisa, ma dopo anni di nascite abbastanza 11 F. Giannoni, U. Pera & M. Della Maggiora: Volvopluteus earlei, specie poco comune in tutta Europa, nuova per la Toscana. distribuite, le raccolte del 2015 sono state oggetto di studio approfondito ed hanno finalmente permesso l’identificazione della specie come Volvopluteus earlei. Nel 2017 è stata osservata una notevole produzione di sporofori per cui le raccolte collezionate a fine 2018 sono risultate dieci, per un totale di ventotto basidiomi. La determinazione della specie è stata confermata anche a mezzo di analisi molecolare eseguita su tre diverse raccolte effettuate in anni diversi. A giudicare dalla letteratura selezionata tra una vasta quantità di fonti bibliografiche, V. earlei sembra essere un’entità fungina rara in tutta Europa, mentre il presente contributo alla sua conoscenza ci risulta essere la prima segnalazione di questa specie sul territorio regionale. Materiali e Metodi Analisi morfologica. La determinazione macroscopica dei ventotto basidiomi raccolti è stata fatta utilizzando materiale fresco, quasi tutti sono stati osservati e descritti appena raccolti, di questi solo pochi esemplari erano immaturi. Per le foto a colori si è utilizzata una macchina fotografica digitale Canon EOS 70D. Le foto al microscopio sono state ottenute con una fotocamera digitale full HD TP1080HDMI. Lo studio microscopico è stato condotto con un apparecchio binoculare Nikon Eclipse E 200 dotato di oculari 10x e obiettivi 40x, 60x e 100x (immersione in olio). L’esame microscopico è stato eseguito su materiale fresco colorato con Rosso Congo ammoniacale, in un secondo tempo per alcuni controlli sono stati utilizzati anche esemplari di erbario, in quest’ultimo caso il campione esaminato è stato precedentemente reidratato con acqua distillata e colorato con Rosso Congo ammoniacale. Le misurazioni sporali sono state effettuate su 32 spore. Le misure di lunghezza e larghezza sporale sono espresse indicando tra parentesi i valori minimo e massimo, con al centro il valore medio meno la deviazione standard e il valore medio più la deviazione standard separati da un trattino. In coda sono indicati i semplici valori medi. Sono state utilizzate le seguenti abbreviazioni:avl per lunghezza media, avw per larghezza media, Q per quoziente sporale (rapporto tra lunghezza e larghezza) e avQ per quoziente sporale medio. Estrazione, amplificazione e sequenziamento del DNA. Le operazioni di estrazione, amplificazione e sequenziamento del DNA, come anche la seguente analisi filogenetica, sono state affidate al laboratorio Alvalab (2018). Tutto il DNA è stato estratto da esemplari essiccati, impiegando un protocollo modificato basato su Murray & Thompson (1980). L’amplificazione tramite PCR è stata eseguita con i prime ITS1F e ITS4 [White et al., 1990; Gardes & Bruns, 1993] per la regione ITS rDNA. Le reazioni PCR sono state eseguite 12 Micologia Toscana 0, 2018 (rev. 2020): 11-25 F. Giannoni, U. Pera & M. Della Maggiora: Volvopluteus earlei, specie poco comune in tutta Europa, nuova per la Toscana. seguendo un programma consistente in un primo step a caldo a 95 °C per 5 minuti, seguito da 35 cicli a 94 °C, 54 °C e 72 °C con durata rispettiva di 45, 30 e 45 secondi, per finire con una fase a 72 °C per 10 minuti. I prodotti della PCR sono stati trattati in gel di agarosio all’1% e le reazioni positive sono state sequenziate con uno o entrambi i prime sopra citati. I cromatogrammi sono stati verificati per rilevare eventuali errori di lettura che poi sono stati opportunamente corretti. Analisi filogenetica. La selezione delle sequenze più strettamente correlate è stata eseguita utilizzando il tool BLAST [Altschul et al., 1997] disponibile sul database pubblico in rete INSDC (International Nucleotide Sequence Database Collaboration). Le sequenze sono state prima allineate con il software MEGA 5.0 [Tamura et al., 2011], sfruttando la sua applicazione Clustal W, e poi corrette manualmente. L’allineamento finale comprende 20 sequenze con 260 bp non coincidenti sul totale di 693 bp. Il set di sequenze allineate è stato caricato con MrBayes 3.1 [Ronquist & Huelsenbeck, 2003], con cui è stata eseguita l’analisi con l’approccio dell’inferenza bayesiana (impostazioni: modello GTR+I+G, due esecuzioni simultanee, sei catene, temperatura settata a 0.2, campionamento ogni 100 generazioni) fino alla convergenza dei parametri che è stata raggiunta dopo circa 390000 generazioni con una deviazione standard risultante minore di 0.01. Infine, la ricerca completa dell’albero con più elevato valore di massima verosimiglianza è stata eseguita in MEGA 5.0, con modello GTR e 2000 repliche di bootstrap. La soglia minima di significatività è stata impostata a 0,95 per la probabilità a posteriore (PP) risultante dall’inferenza bayesiana e a 70% per la percentuale di bootstrap (BP) a seguito dell’analisi a massima verosimiglianza.

Descrizione Macroscopica Cappello poco carnoso, 20-48 mm, inizialmente di forma campanulata poi convessa e piana a maturità, ma sempre con largo umbone ottuso centrale. La cuticola appare liscia e lucida perché viscosa (si attacca alle labbra), ma alla lente si rivela villosa, di colore bianco, bianco sporco, spesso con una leggera sfumatura rosa e/o ocra chiaro al disco, non igrofana, con margine striato scanalato, involuto negli esemplari immaturi mentre a completa maturazione spesso la cuticola si ritrae per diversi millimetri lasciando prima intravedere poi scoperte le lamelle (Figg. 4C e 4D). Lamelle moderatamente spaziate, intercalate da numerose lamellule, larghe, libere, inizialmente bianche, rosa chiaro fino a rosa palissandro a completa maturità, con filo biancastro (Fig. 4B) e abbastanza regolare. La maturazione avviene in modo disomogeneo facendo apparire la faccia della lamella marezzata. Figura 1 - Volvopluteus earlei in habitat. Raccolta del 16-07-2015, erbario AGMT n. 71, GenBank n.

    Mycol. Res. 94 (3): 327-337 (1990) Printed in Great Brituin 327 Development of the basidiome of Volvariella bombycina SIU WAI CHIU* AND DAVID MOORE Microbiology Research Group, Department of Cell and Structural Biology, Stopford Building, The University, Manchester M13 9PT Development of the basidiome of Volvariella bombycina. Mycological Research 94 (3): 327-337 (1990). Basidiorne development of Volvariella bomb~cinawas examined with optical and scanning electron microscopy. Primary gills arose as ridges on the lower surface of the cap, projecting into a preformed annular cavity. Secondary and tertiary gills were added whenever space became available by bifurcation of an existing gill either horn one side or at the free edge, or by folding of the palisade layer near or at the roots of existing gills. These processes gave rise to sinuous, labyrinthiform hymenophores as a normal transitional stage to the mature regularly radial gill pattern. Although many cystidia spanned the gill space at the early stages, their tips causing depressions in the opposing hymenium, cryo-SEM examination showed that marginal and facial cystidia of mature gills bore droplets, suggesting that these cells are more likely to act as secretory elements than as structural members. Transformation of the convoluted gills into regularly radial ones is probably accomplished by cell inflation in the gill trama. Marking experiments and consideration of cystidial distribution suggest that V. bombycina gills grow at their root, not at their margin. Key words: Hymenophore development, Morphogenesis, Gill pattern, Cystidium, Volvariella bombycina. Volvariella bombycina (Schaeff. : Fr.) Sing., the silver-silk straw from expression of a series of essentially self-contained mushroom, is an edible fungus which fruits readily in culture.

Accepted 2 January, 2014 Mushrooms are the higher fungi which have long been used for food and medicinal purposes. They have rich nutritional value with high protein content (up to 44.93%), vitamins, minerals, fibers, trace elements and low calories and lack cholesterol. There are 14,000 known species of mushrooms of which 2,000 are safe for human consumption and about 650 of these possess medicinal properties. Among the total known mushrooms, approximately 850 species are recorded from India. Many of them have been used in food and folk medicine for thousands of years. Mushrooms are also sources of bioactive substances including antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral, antioxidant, antiinflammatory, anticancer, antitumour, anti-HIV and antidiabetic activities. Nutriceuticals and medicinal mushrooms have been used in human health development in India as food, medicine, minerals among others. The present review aims to update the current status of mushrooms diversity in India with their nutritional and medicinal potential as well as ethnomedicinal uses for different future prospects in pharmaceutical application. Key words: Mushroom diversity, nutritional value, therapeutic potential, bioactive compound.

Molecular data supporting all examined collections as V. dunensis expand its known geographic distribution. A revised morphological characterization and a phylogenetic analysis of all Volvariella species sequenced to date are provided. Key words — Agaricomycetes, ITS, phylogeny, Volvariella volvacea Introduction The genus Volvariella Speg., which is composed of saprotrophic or mycotrophic agarics, has been historically considered a member of the family Pluteaceae Kotl. & Pouzar (Singer 1986). The genus is characterized macroscopically by a pink spore-print, free lamellae, and a universal veil that forms a saccate volva at the base of the stipe and microscopically by the inverse hymenophoral trama (Singer 1986). Results from earlier molecular studies (Moncalvo et al. 2002, Matheny et al. 2006) led to questions about its monophyly and phylogenetic position in the Pluteaceae. More recent research focused on the Pluteaceae (Justo et al.
