Increase in the carbon dioxide level of the atmosphere, depletion of the ozone layer of the stratosphere, eutrophication, acid rain and toxification of the biosphere are examples of such changes. Their predicted effects are very diverse: changed radiation balance (the greenhouse effect), rise in the sea level, modification of the precipitation patterns, etc. Various secondary consequences are also possible, e.g. shifts in vegetation zones, threats to some communities, like coral reefs, mangroves and salt-marshes, loss of biodiversity, changes in the geographical distribution of plants and animals, including pathogens and herbivorous insects, shifts in the competitive balance of the C3 and C4 plants, modifications of erop yields, forest decline, fish k:ills, etc. Some consequences of global change could even affect human health, e.g. by increasing the risks of skin cancer or heavy metal poisoning. Biologica! changes, even occurring in a given geographical area, can reflect global change and, from this viewpoint, may have a predictive value. Therefore, under the auspices of the Belgian National Committee of Biologica! Sciences, a Symposium on Biologica! Indicators of Global Change was organized by the Belgian Royal Societies of Botany, of Entomology and of Zoology, and the Royal Academy of Overseas Sciences. Grateful acknowledgements are expressed to Prof. 0. Vanderborght, President of the Belgian National Committee International Geosphere - Biosphere - Programme - Global Change, to Prof. Ph. Bourdeau, President of the Belgian National Committee SCOPE (Scientific Committee on Problems of the Environment), and to Dr. D. Cahen, Director of the Belgian Royal Institute of Natura! Sciences, and his collaborators, Dr. A. Quintart and Dr. J. Van Goethem, for their invaluable co-operation. Financial support from the National Fund of Scientific Research is also thankfully acknowledged. J.-J. SYMOENS, President of the Belgian National Committee of Biologica! Sciences, Permanent Executive Secretary of the Royal Academy of Overseas Sciences. AVANT-PROPOS Par changements globaux, on entend un certain nombre de modi­ fications des processus physiques, chimiques et biologiques qui gouvernent Ie système Terre dans sa totalité, l'environnement planétaire en interaction avec !'ensemble de la biosphère, ainsi que la manière dont ces processus sont influencés par les activités humaines. L'élévation de la teneur de l'atmosphère en dioxyde de carbone, la réduction de la couche d'ozone de la stratosphère, l'eutrophisation, les pluies acides et la toxification de la biosphère sont des exemples de tels processus. Les effets prévisibles de ces changements sont très divers: modification du bilan radiatif (l'effet de serre), élévation du niveau des mers, changement des régimes de précipitations, etc. On peut également en prévoir des conséquences secondaires très variées: déplacements des zones de végétation, menaces touchant certaines commu­ nautés, tels les récifs coralliens, les mangroves et les prés salés, pertes de biodiversité, modifications de la distribution géographique d'espèces végétales et animales, y compris des pathogènes et des insectes herbivores, déplacements de l'équilibre concurrentie! des plantes en C3 et C4, modifications des rendements des cultures, dépérissement des forêts, morta­ lités massives de poissons, etc. Certaines de ces conséquences des change­ ments globaux peuvent même affecter Ia santé humaine, par exemple en accroissant les risques de cancers cutanés ou d'empoisonnement par les métaux lourds. Des modifications biologiques se manifestant dans une zone géographique donnée peuvent refléter des changements globaux et, de ce point de vue, avoir une certaine valeur prédictive. Dans ce contexte, un Symposium sur les Indicateurs biologiques des Changements globaux a été organisé, sous les auspices du Comité national beige des Sciences biologiques, par les Sociétés royales belges de Botanique, d'Entomologie et de Zoologie et l' Académie royale des Sciences d'Outre-Mer. Nos vifs remerciements s'adressent au professeur 0. Vanderborght, président du Comité national beige "International Geosphere - Biosphere - Programme - Global Change", au professeur Ph. Bourdeau, président du Comité national beige SCOPE ("Scientific Committee on Problems of the Environment"), ainsi qu'au Dr D. Cahen, directeur de l'lnstitut royal des Sciences naturelles de Belgique, et à ses collaborateurs, Le Dr A. Quintart et Le Dr J. Van Goethem, pour leur précieuse coopération. Nous remercions également Le Fonds national pour la Recherche scientifique de son appui financier au Symposium. 1.-J. SYMOENS, Président du Comité national beige des Sciences biologiques, Secrétaire perpétuel de l' Académie royale des Sciences d'Outre-Mer. WOORD VOORAF Onder de term "global change" verstaat men een aantal veranderingen in de fysische, chemische en biologische processen die het systeem Aarde in zijn geheel beheersen, het wereldmilieu in zijn wisselwerking met de biosfeer, en de manier waarop deze processen beïnvloed

    CZECH MYCOLOGY Publication of the Czech Scientific Society for Mycology Volume 57 August 2005 Number 1-2 Central European genera of the Boletaceae and Suillaceae, with notes on their anatomical characters Jo s e f Š u t a r a Prosetická 239, 415 01 Tbplice, Czech Republic Šutara J. (2005): Central European genera of the Boletaceae and Suillaceae, with notes on their anatomical characters. - Czech Mycol. 57: 1-50. A taxonomic survey of Central European genera of the families Boletaceae and Suillaceae with tubular hymenophores, including the lamellate Phylloporus, is presented. Questions concerning the delimitation of the bolete genera are discussed. Descriptions and keys to the families and genera are based predominantly on anatomical characters of the carpophores. Attention is also paid to peripheral layers of stipe tissue, whose anatomical structure has not been sufficiently studied. The study of these layers, above all of the caulohymenium and the lateral stipe stratum, can provide information important for a better understanding of relationships between taxonomic groups in these families. The presence (or absence) of the caulohymenium with spore-bearing caulobasidia on the stipe surface is here considered as a significant ge­ neric character of boletes. A new combination, Pseudoboletus astraeicola (Imazeki) Šutara, is proposed. Key words: Boletaceae, Suillaceae, generic taxonomy, anatomical characters. Šutara J.

Jsou diskutovány otázky týkající se vymezení hřibovitých rodů. Popisy a klíče k čeledím a rodům jsou založeny převážně na anatomických znacích plodnic.

Two distinct taxa of Tylopilus from Northeastern Atlantic Forest, T. dunensis and T. pygmaeus, are proposed as new based on evidence from both morphological and molecular data. We provide detailed macro- and microscopic descriptions of each species including scanning electron micrographs of the basidiospores.

This Boletales species occurs widely in eastern North America and Central America. It is reported for the first time from a neotropical lamellate boletes montane pine woodland in the Dominican Republic. The confirmation of this newly recognised monophyletic genus is molecular phylogeny supported and molecularly confirmed by phylogenetic inference based on multiple loci (ITS, 28S, TEF1-α, and RPB1).

Primární zdroje betaglukanů pro imunomodulační studie i pro léčebné aplikace jsou víceméně tradič- ní, jen částečně dané jejich větší dostupností. V Evropě a USA jsou to zymozan z kvasnic využívaných v pekařství a pivovarnic- tví, ve Francii glukany z mořských řas, v Kanadě a Brazílii glukany z obilovin, v Japonsku, Číně a Rusku jsou to nejrůznější dru- hy hub (šiitake, maitake, reiši). Několik klinických studií naznačilo možnost využití betaglukanů v prevenci infekčních komplikací u vysoce rizikových chirurgických zákroků. Moderní historie užívání polysacharidů jako imunomodulátorů začala aplikací Shearova polysacharidu na začátku 40. let minu- lého století. Zájem na čas opadl a objevil se znovu až o dvacet let později v souvislosti s průkazem příznivého účinku hrubého ex- traktu buněčných stěn kvasinek Saccharomyces cerevisiae na aktivaci komplementového systému. Výzkum biomodulačních vlastností betaglukanů se nejdříve zaměřil na oblast infekční imunity a později na imunitu protinádorovou. Po úspěšném průkazu jejich po- zitivního vlivu na tuto složku imunity byly už v polovině osmdesátých let minulého století v Japonsku povoleny dva typy betaglu- kanů, lentinan a schizofylan, pro podpůrnou léčbu některých typů zhoubných novotvarů. Zároveň se nebývale zvýšil celosvětově zájem v oblasti biomedicínského výzkumu o problematiku dalších možností použití betaglukanů pro prevenci a podpůrnou léčbu řady infekčních i chronických nesdělných chorob.
