Received: 3 March 2020; Accepted: 12 March 2020; Published: 16 March 2020 Abstract: Auricularia heimuer is one of the most popular edible fungi in China. In this study, the whole genome of A. heimuer was sequenced on the Illumina HiSeq X system and compared with other mushrooms genomes. As a wood-rotting fungus, a total of 509 carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes) were annotated in order to explore its potential capabilities on wood degradation. The glycoside hydrolases (GH) family genes in the A. heimuer genome were more abundant than the genes in the other 11 mushrooms genomes. The A. heimuer genome contained 102 genes encoding class III, IV, and V ethanol dehydrogenases. Evolutionary analysis based on 562 orthologous single-copy genes from 15 mushrooms showed that Auricularia formed an early independent branch of Agaricomycetes. The mating-type locus of A. heimuer was located on linkage group 8 by genetic linkage analysis.

  • Biodiversity of Dead Wood
    Scottish Natural Heritage Biodiversity of Dead Wood Fungi – Lichens - Bryophytes Dr David Genney SNH Policy and Advice Officer Scottish Natural Heritage Key messages Scotland is home to thousands of fungi, lichens and bryophytes, many of which depend on dead wood as a food source or place to grow. This presentation gives a brief introduction, for each group, to the diversity of dead wood species and the types of dead wood they need to survive. The take-home message is that the dead wood habitat is as diverse as the species that depend upon it. Ensuring a wide range of these dead wood types will maximise species diversity. Some dead wood types need special management and may need to be prioritised in areas where threatened species depend upon them. Scottish Natural Heritage FUNGI Dead wood is food for fungi and they, in turn, have a big impact on its quality and ultimate fate With thousands of species, each with specific habitat requirements, fungi require a wide diversity of dead wood types to maximise diversity Liz Holden Scottish Natural Heritage Different fungi rot wood in different ways – the main types of rot are brown rot and white rot Brown rot fungi The main building block of wood, cellulose, is broken down by the fungi, but not other structural compounds such as lignin. Dead wood is brown and exhibits brick-like cracking Many bracket fungi are brown rotters Liz Holden Cellulose Scottish Natural Heritage White-rot fungi White-rot fungi degrade a wider range of wood compounds, including the very complex polymer, lignin Pale wood More species are white-rot than brown-rot fungi Lignin Liz Holden Lignin Scottish Natural Heritage Armillaria spp.

    Feminist Encounters: A Journal of Critical Studies in Culture and Politics, 5(1), 05 ISSN: 2468-4414 Othering Mushrooms: Migratism and its racist entanglements in the Brexit campaign Lenka Vráblíková 1* Published: March 5, 2021 ABSTRACT Mushrooms have long occupied a highly ambivalent position in the cultural imagination, inciting disgust and fear, as well as wonder and fascination. Neither plants, nor animals, they grow up unexpectedly but also in regular lines or circles. Some of them are medicinal and edible, whereas others are toxic or even poisonous. Sometimes they are both. Employing the ambivalence of mushrooms as an analytic lens, this article interrogates the processes of othering through which certain bodies are more susceptible to be othered than other bodies. Mobilising Sara Ahmed’s analytic framework on othering as an embodied process, this transnational ecofeminist intervention provides an insight into how forests, mushrooms and their foragers have been deployed in the Brexit campaign’s migratism and explores its racist entanglements. The article argues that research into social and environmental histories of how meaning is constructed and embodied in human and non-human bodies and the places they inhabit is vital for contesting the re- emergence of the right-wing populism that, in Europe, is exemplified by events such as Brexit. Keywords: Brexit, feminist ethnomycology, embodied othering, migratism/racism/antisemitism, media & communication INTRODUCTION Mushrooms have long occupied a highly ambivalent position in the cultural imagination, inciting disgust and fear, as well as wonder and fascination.

The sporophores of this edible mushroom were tissue cultured and biomass production Auricularia was assessed. In liquid media, Potato dextrose was found to support the maximum delicata, biomass production of three Auricularia species followed by Yeast potato dextrose A. polytricha, in both A. delicata and A. polytricha and Malt extract in A. auricula. Likewise, A. auricula, very good biomass was produced at pH 6.5 for the three species after 10 days of Edible incubation. Both A. delicata and A. polytricha attained their maximum biomass mushroom, production at 280C whereas 300C for A. auricula after 10 days.

After describing in brief the various studies that have led to the identification, prioritisation and selection of the project corridors, this chapter presents the various improvement options proposed. The setting in terms of the preparation of EA for the project and the EA process adopted has been discussed. The last section presents the outline of the various chapters of this report. 1.1 MIZORAM STATE ROADS PROJECT 2 The Government of India has requested World Bank financing for the improvement and rehabilitation of State Highways and Major District Roads in the State of Mizoram that enhance connectivity to Bangladesh and Myanmar. The proposed roads project includes a 336 km north-south alignment starting at the NH44A junction between Aizawl and Tripura State passing through Thenhlum, Phairuangkai,Chawngte, and connecting to the Multi-modal Kaladan Road at the southern end. Other road links in the project include the 112 km east-west Lunglei-Lungsen-Tlabung-Kawrpuichhuah road which links to nearby Chittagong Port (through Rangamati) in Bangladesh and the east-west 28km Champhai-Zowthowkar road and 42 km Chumkhum- chongte road .

Arboretum memiliki potensi yang tinggi untuk konservasi hayati termasuk jenis jamur, sehingga informasi keragaman dan potensi sangat penting untuk dasar pengelolaannya. Tujuan penelitian adalah mengetahui keragaman jenis dan potensi jamur makroskopis yang ada di Arboretum BP2LHK Manado. Penelitian dilakukan selama 8 kali pengamatan di bulan Mei, Juni, dan September 2016 menggunakan cruise method dan opportunistic approach untuk mengumpulkan tubuh buah jamur sebanyak mungkin. Pengumpulan data media tumbuh, intensitas cahaya, suhu tempat tumbuh digunakan sebagai pendukung. Hasil penelitian mununjukkan bahwa aboretum ini menyimpan 48 jenis jamur makroskopis dengan karakteristik yang berbeda, 39 jenis telah diketahui nama ilmiahnya, terbagi menjadi 2 divisio, 6 kelas, 9 ordo, dan 17 famili, 9 jenis lainnya belum diketahui nama ilmiahnya. Hasil ekplorasi menunjukkan bahwa keragaman habitat jenis jamur makroskopis didominasi oleh 31 jenis tumbuh pada kayu lapuk, 11 jenis tumbuh pada seresah, dan 6 jenis tumbuh pada tanah.
