ПЕРВАЯ НАХОДКА VELUTICEPS BERKELEYI (BASIDIOMYCETES) Â СРЕДИЗЕМНОМОРЬЕ The genus Veluticeps (Cooke) Pat. is a striking and distinctive group of wood-decay fun- gi that is associated with brown-rotted wood. Previously, Hjortstam et Tellerнa (1990) ex- panded the concept of Veluticeps to include Columnocystis Pouzar. Nakasone (1990) accep- ted these as synonymous and presents seven species descriptions. Later, Nakasone (2004) worked on a revision of the current status of Veluticeps in the world, and as a result of this work a key to the accepted species of Veluticeps and related taxa was provided. She transfer- red some species such as Veluticeps philippinensis Bres., V. tabacina (Cooke) Burt and V. heimii Malenзon to the genus Pileodon, whereas Campylomyces and only eight species remained in Veluticeps. Currently, the genus Veluticeps includes two groups based on the presence or absence of hyphal pegs. Veluticeps sensu stricto is limited by taxa with hyphal pegs, namely, V. berkeleyi and V. australiensis. Veluticeps sensu lato essentially equivalent to the former genus Columnocystis includes taxa that lack hyphal pegs, namely, Veluticeps abietina (Pers.) Hjortstam et Tellerнa, V. africana (Boidin, Lanq. et Gilles) Hjortstam et Tel- lerнa, V. ambigua (Peck) Hjortstam et Tellerнa, V. fimbriata (Ellis et Everh.) Nakasone, V. fusispora (G. Cunn.) Hjortstam et Ryvarden and V. pimeriensis (Gilbertson) Hjortstam et Tellerнa. Most of the species from the genus have a restricted geographical range and are qu- ite rare except for V.

The effects of forest management practices on a plantation of willow (Salix) and poplar (Populus) over Agaricomycetes basidiomes biodiversity were studied for one year in an island located in Paraná Delta, Argentina. Dry weight and number of basidiomes were measured. We found 28 species belonging to Agaricomycetes: 26 species of Agaricales, one species of Polyporales and one species of Russulales.

Pure culture was prepared by tissue culture on Malt-extract-agar (MEA) medium at 25±2°C. The specimen was studied for its identification, taxonomy and phylogeny and identified as Lentinus sajor-caju by morphological and microscopical studies. The identification was confirmed through ITS 5.8S rDNA sequencing and sequence analysis. Its cultivation was done on saw dust and wheat bran. The fruit bodies were obtained at a temperature of 28±2°C and 80-85% RH. The cultivated Lentinus sajor-caju fruit bodies were analysed for nutritional and biological properties and observed that the cultivated mushroom has good nutritional properties and antioxidant, reducing and DPPH free radical scavenging properties are comparable to commercially cultivated Lentinula edodes strains.

Foster, [email protected] Abstract: Fungi are often inconspicuous in nature and this means it is all too easy to overlook their importance. Often referred to as the “Forgotten Kingdom”, fungi are key components of life on this planet. The phylum Basidiomycota, considered to contain the most complex and evolutionarily advanced members of this Kingdom, includes some of the most iconic fungal species such as the gilled mushrooms, puffballs and bracket fungi. Basidiomycetes inhabit a wide range of ecological niches, carrying out vital ecosystem roles, particularly in carbon cycling and as symbiotic partners with a range of other organisms. Specifically in the context of human use, the basidiomycetes are a highly valuable food source and are increasingly medicinally important. In this review, seven main categories, or ‘roles’, for basidiomycetes have been suggested by the authors: as model species, edible species, toxic species, medicinal basidiomycetes, symbionts, decomposers and pathogens, and two species have been chosen as representatives of each category.

The degradative capacity of both species confers them potential for fruiting bodies production. This study evaluated the mycelial growth of two native strains of N. ponderosus and N. lepideus in malt extract agar (EMA) at different pH and the degradation of wood from two pine species in rot chambers during 12 months. pH 7.0 was the most appropriate for the mycelial growth of N. ponderosus and for N. lepideus were 5.0 and 5.6. The colonies of both strains showed fruity odor, velvety texture, regular to irregular edge, white color, with or without diffusible pigment, hyphae with 1-5 μm width, chlamydospores and clamp connections. Wood from Pinus tecunumanii and P. ayacahuite exhibit weight-loss percentages between 8.76 ± 5.58 and 12.07 ± 5.66, with N. ponderosus 145.2003 and N. lepideus 90.2002, respectively. In both cases reached the early stage of brown-rot decay. These results could be useful for future research that evaluate the fruiting bodies production in logs for food and commercial purposes.
