Chakraborty Department of Botany, Rishi Bankim Chandra College, Naihati, North 24 Parganas, West Bengal, India, Pin-743165 Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT Macrofungi are very important for various reasons. Extensive field survey in different locations of Dakshin Dinajpur district of West Bengal was conducted from March, 2007 to March, 2010 and macrofungi were collected for preparation of a taxonomic profile of macrofungi of the region. From the study area 88 different types of macrofungi were collected. Among these macrofungi 74 collections were identified up to the species level and 8 collections were identified up to the genus level whereas 6 collections remain unidentified. Among all the identified macrofungal population 9% members belong to Ascomycota and 91% members belong to Basidiomycota group. In this present study, a total of 82 macrofungal species in 60 genera belonging to 30 families in 12 orders were first time recorded from this region. Among all the identified macrofungi 17 species are edible whereas 4 species are poisonous. KEYWORDS: Edible, diversity, fungi, mushroom, poisonous. Introduction Purkayastha and Chandra, 1985; Roy and De, 1996; Sarbhoyet al., Macrofungi are consisting of fruiting body of unrelated groups of 1996; Natarajan et al., 2005). Macrofungi including mushrooms fungi (Ascomycota and Basidiomycota) with large, easily observed are reported from south India (Sathe and Rahalkar, 1978; spore-bearing structures that form above or below the ground. Natarajan and Raman, 1983; Brown et al., 2006; Swapna et al., These include morels, truffles, earth-tongues, cup fungi, 2008; Mani and Kumaresan, 2009; Mohanan, 2011; Pushpa and polypores, bracket fungi, agarics, hedge-hog fungi, jelly fungi, Purushothama, 2012; Usha, 2012; Farook et al., 2013; Krishnappa puff-balls, stinkhorns, bird’s nest fungi.

Earlier Walting and Gregory (1980) proposed that Bengal (Roy and Samajpati, 1980; Acharya et al., 2008; Dutta et as India is rich in flowering plants than any other country in size, al., 2012; Dutta et al., 2013; Pradhan et al., 2013; Chakraborty, the fungal population of India is expected to be diversified. 2018). Though several investigators have extensively surveyed different bio-geographical regions of India including Bengal plains and Since no floristic survey and study of macrofungi was done by any reported sizable number of fungal flora but northern part of West worker except Chakraborty (2018) in Dakshin Dinajpur district of Bengal did not get due attention (Butler and Bisby 1931, 1960; West Bengal, this communication for the first time reports the Mukherji and Juneja, 1975; Bilgrami et al., 1991; Manjula, 1983; rich macrofungal diversity from this region.

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 relative configuration of oudemansin have been determined by X-ray analysis. The antibiotic exhibits strong antifungal properties and inhibits respiration in fungi, cells of the ascitic form of EHRLICHcarcinoma, and rat liver mitochondria. Recently we elucidated the structures of two antifungal antibiotics from cultures of Strobi/urus tenace1/us2'31. Strobilurin A (1) has the same molecular formula Cs,;H,903 as mucidin, an antifungal compound isolated from Oudemansie/la mucida by VONDRACEK et a/.4'51 However, in contrast to oily, achiral 1, mucidin is crystalline (m.p. 51-53°C) and optically active ([x]546 +33')".

Seasonal distribution, habitat and resource preferences are discussed. Keywords: Fungi, ecology, biodiversity, conservation, grassland INTRODUCTION Hedger & George (2004) published a list of 108 taxa of fungi found on Lundy during a five-day survey carried out in October 2003. They also included in this paper the records of 95 species of fungi made from 1970 onwards, mostly abstracted from the Annual Reports of the Lundy Field Society, and found that their own survey had added 70 additional records, giving a total of 156 taxa. They concluded that further surveys would undoubtedly add to the database, especially since the autumn of 2003 had been exceptionally dry, and as a consequence the fruiting of the larger fleshy fungi on Lundy, especially the grassland species, had been very poor, resulting in under-recording. Further five-day surveys were therefore carried out each year from 2004-08, three in the autumn, 8-12 November 2004, 4-9 November 2007, 3-11 November 2008, one in winter, 23-27 January 2006 and one in spring, 9-16 April 2005.

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. INTRODUCTION Mushroom is a general term used mainly for the fruiting unexamined mushrooms will be only 5%, implies that body of macrofungi (Ascomycota and Basidiomycota) there are 7,000 yet undiscovered species, which if and represents only a short reproductive stage in their life discovered will be provided with the possible benefit to cycle (Das, 2010).

(Polyporales, Basidiomycota) based on morphological and multigene analyses M.C. Westphalen1,*, M. Rajchenberg2, M. Tomšovský3, A.M. Gugliotta1 Key words Abstract Junghuhnia is a genus of polypores traditionally characterised by a dimitic hyphal system with clamped generative hyphae and presence of encrusted skeletocystidia. However, recent molecular studies revealed that Mycodiversity Junghuhnia is polyphyletic and most of the species cluster with Steccherinum, a morphologically similar genus phylogeny separated only by a hydnoid hymenophore. In the Neotropics, very little is known about the evolutionary relation- Steccherinaceae ships of Junghuhnia s.lat. taxa and very few species have been included in molecular studies. In order to test the taxonomy proper phylogenetic placement of Neotropical species of this group, morphological and molecular analyses were carried out. Specimens were collected in Brazil and used for DNA sequence analyses of the internal transcribed spacer and the large subunit of the nuclear ribosomal RNA gene, the translation elongation factor 1-α gene, and the second largest subunit of RNA polymerase II gene. Herbarium collections, including type specimens, were studied for morphological comparison and to confirm the identity of collections. The molecular data obtained revealed that the studied species are placed in three different genera. Specimens of Junghuhnia carneola represent two distinct species that group in a lineage within the phlebioid clade, separated from Junghuhnia and Steccherinum, which belong to the residual polyporoid clade.
