  • 9B Taxonomy to Genus
    Fungus and Lichen Genera in the NEMF Database Taxonomic hierarchy: phyllum > class (-etes) > order (-ales) > family (-ceae) > genus. Total number of genera in the database: 526 Anamorphic fungi (see p. 4), which are disseminated by propagules not formed from cells where meiosis has occurred, are presently not grouped by class, order, etc. Most propagules can be referred to as "conidia," but some are derived from unspecialized vegetative mycelium. A significant number are correlated with fungal states that produce spores derived from cells where meiosis has, or is assumed to have, occurred. These are, where known, members of the ascomycetes or basidiomycetes. However, in many cases, they are still undescribed, unrecognized or poorly known. (Explanation paraphrased from "Dictionary of the Fungi, 9th Edition.") Principal authority for this taxonomy is the Dictionary of the Fungi and its online database, www.indexfungorum.org. For lichens, see Lecanoromycetes on p. 3.

  • The Effect of Decayed Or Downed Wood on the Structure and Function of Ectomycorrhizal Fungal Communities at a High Elevation Forest
    The effect of decayed or downed wood on the structure and function of ectomycorrhizal fungal communities at a high elevation forest by Jennifer Karen Marie Walker B.Sc., The University of Northern British Columbia, 2003 M.Sc., The University of Northern British Columbia, 2006 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in The College of Graduate Studies (Biology) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Okanagan) March 2012 !Jennifer Karen Marie Walker, 2012 Abstract Shifts in ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungal community composition occur after clearcut logging, resulting in the loss of forest-associated fungi and potential ecosystem function. Coarse woody debris (CWD) includes downed wood generated during logging; decayed downed wood is a remnant of the original forest, and important habitat for ECM fungi. Over the medium term, while logs remain hard, it is not known if they influence ECM fungal habitat. I tested for effects of downed wood on ECM fungal communities by examining ECM roots and fungal hyphae of 10-yr-old saplings in CWD retention and removal plots in a subalpine ecosystem. I then tested whether downed and decayed wood provided ECM fungal habitat by planting nonmycorrhizal spruce seedlings in decayed wood, downed wood, and mineral soil microsites in the clearcuts and adjacent forest plots, and harvested them 1 and 2 years later. I tested for differences in the community structure of ECM root tips (Sanger sequencing) among all plots and microsites, and of ECM fungal hyphae (pyrosequencing) in forest microsites. I assayed the activities of eight extracellular enzymes in order to compare community function related to nutrient acquisition.

  • Polyozellus Multiplex-An Example of Our Mycological Ignorance. Osprey 37:20-22
    20 21 Polyozellus Multiplex - An Example of Our Mycological Ignorance by Andrus Voitk Polyozellus multiplex, the blue (or black) chanterelle, shown in Figure 1, grows as a large cluster of black or very dark bluish-purple fan- shaped leaves, arising out of a wide, common stalk. The sporulating surface, on the outside of each fan, is made up of folds, somewhat resembling thick, forked, decurrent gills. The spore print is white, giving mature specimens a dull bluish-gray appearance on the outside, Figure 1 - Polyozellus multiplex, Stanleyville Trail, contrasting with the shinier blackish purple on Gros Morne National Park, September, 2000. the inside of each leaf. The same trees are still there but this gorgeous ectomycorrhizal mushroom has not been seen in that Classical morphological taxonomy considered location since. I am now aware of three places where Polyozellus to be a relative of the chantarelle with this mushroom has been found to fruit. In 1-5 follow- its fold-like gills, along with the genus Gomphus, up years it has not been found to fruit in any of these whose sporulating surface is virtually identical to places again. that of P. multiplex. Recent DNA studies have left Gomphus as a distant relative of the chanterelle but placed P. multiplex with earth fans, Class Telephorales, Family Telephuraceae. It doesn’t seem to fit readily with either and no doubt the future has more family unrest in store for poor P. multiplex. Among interesting properties of this good edible* is its ability to slow certain cell replication. Animal experiments suggest P. multiplex may, among other things, prevent stomach cancer (1).

  • How to Distinguish Amanita Smithiana from Matsutake and Catathelasma Species
    VOLUME 57: 1 JANUARY-FEBRUARY 2017 www.namyco.org How to Distinguish Amanita smithiana from Matsutake and Catathelasma species By Michael W. Beug: Chair, NAMA Toxicology Committee A recent rash of mushroom poisonings involving liver failure in Oregon prompted Michael Beug to issue the following photos and information on distinguishing the differences between the toxic Amanita smithiana and edible Matsutake and Catathelasma. Distinguishing the choice edible Amanita smithiana Amanita smithiana Matsutake (Tricholoma magnivelare) from the highly poisonous Amanita smithiana is best done by laying the stipe (stem) of the mushroom in the palm of your hand and then squeezing down on the stipe with your thumb, applying as much pressure as you can. Amanita smithiana is very firm but if you squeeze hard, the stipe will shatter. Matsutake The stipe of the Matsutake is much denser and will not shatter (unless it is riddled with insect larvae and is no longer in good edible condition). There are other important differences. The flesh of Matsutake peels or shreds like string cheese. Also, the stipe of the Matsutake is widest near the gills Matsutake and tapers gradually to a point while the stipe of Amanita smithiana tends to be bulbous and is usually widest right at ground level. The partial veil and ring of a Matsutake is membranous while the partial veil and ring of Amanita smithiana is powdery and readily flocculates into small pieces (often disappearing entirely). For most people the difference in odor is very distinctive. Most collections of Amanita smithiana have a bleach-like odor while Matsutake has a distinctive smell of old gym socks and cinnamon redhots (however, not all people can distinguish the odors).

  • Mushrooms of the National Forests in Alaska
    Mushrooms of the National Forests in Alaska United States Forest Service R10 --RG 209 Department of Alaska Region FEB 2013 Agriculture Introduction The coastal temperate rainforests of the Tongass and Chugach national forests often produce prolific fruitings of mushrooms in late summer and fall. For many Alaskans, mushrooms are a source of food. For others, they are a source of pigments for dyeing wool and other natural fibers. Still others merely enjoy their beauty. However, all Alaskans should appreciate these fungi for, without them, there would be no forests here. This brochure presents an introduction to mushrooms and illustrates a number of the more common and interesting of our local species to help Alaskans and visitors to better understand and enjoy our magnificent national forests. Unlike most plants, birds, and mammals, very few mushrooms have common names. Thus, while we have used common names where they exist, many of the species in this brochure can be referred to only by their scientific names. But, never fear. If you can talk with your kids about Tyrannosaurus rex, you can handle mushroom names! What is a mushroom? Mushrooms are produced by some fungi (singular: fungus), and their primary purpose is to make and spread tiny reproductive propagules called spores, which function much like plant seeds. After long being considered primitive plants, fungi now are accepted as their own kingdom. Unlike plants, fungi cannot make their own food, and their cell walls contain chitin rather than cellulose. Interestingly, chitin also is found in insect exoskeletons, providing evidence that the fungi are more closely related to animals (including us!) than they are to plants.

  • Heritage Rank Status Factors
    Heritage Rank Status Factors Elcode NFSM000134 Gname POLYOZELLUS MULTIPLEX Gcomname Blue chanterelle Number of Occurrences C = 21 - 80 D = 81 - 300 Comments Polyozellus multiplex is known from Japan and North America (and possibly Australia -- unconfirmed report from BPI database). Incomplete data do not permit estimations of number of occurrences worldwide. Within the Pacific Northwest U.S., 33-57 recent collections have been reported (Norvell 1995, ISMS 2002). Many fruitbodies (which are choice edibles) are assumed to be collected for food and not reported. Nonetheless the species is regarded as uncommon to rare in the west., Number of Occurrences with Good Viability D = Some (13-40) occurrences with good viability Comments Data are too incomplete to permit estimates of viable occurrences outside the northern spotted owl region. The USDA-I ISMS 2002 database indicates that of 57 occurrences, at least 32 lie within permanently or temporarily protected reserves. As ectomycorrhizal species are tied to the health of their symbiotic partners (in this instance primarily Abies spp.), the other known occurrences can be predicted to remain viable as long as the forests are preserved. Population Size U = Unknown Comments Genets of ectomycorrhizal fungi cannot be delimited without DNA sampling. Range Extent H = > 2,500,000 km2 (greater than 1,000,000 square miles) Comments Restricted to Japan and North America, with one unverified collection (BPI 11-18-02) reported from Australia. In North America it has been reported from AK, BC, WA, OR, ID, CA,NM, CO, MI, ON, QU, ME (Smith & Morse 1947, Smith 1968,m Bigelow 1978, Norvell 1995; Databses include BPI, DAVFP, OSC).
