Mycodiversity Studies in Selected Ecosystems of Greece: 5
Uploaded — May 2011 [Link page — MYCOTAXON 115: 535] Expert reviewers: Giuseppe Venturella, Solomon P. Wasser Mycodiversity studies in selected ecosystems of Greece: 5.

We report here the results of an inventory of basidiomycetes, which was undertaken in the region of Nafpactia Mts., central Greece. The investigated area, with woods dominated by C. sativa, was examined for the first time in respect to its mycodiversity. One hundred and four species belonging in 54 genera were recorded. Fifteen species (Conocybe pseudocrispa, Entoloma nitens, Lactarius glaucescens, Lichenomphalia velutina, Parasola schroeteri, Pholiotina coprophila, Russula alutacea, R. azurea, R. pseudoaeruginea, R. pungens, R. vitellina, Sarcodon glaucopus, Tomentella badia, T. fibrosa and Tubulicrinis sororius) are reported for the first time from Greece. In addition, 33 species constitute new habitats/hosts/substrates records. Key words — biodiversity, macromycete, Mediterranean, mushroom Introduction Castanea sativa Mill., Fagaceae (sweet chestnut) generally prefers north- facing slopes where the rainfall is greater than 600 mm, on moderately acid soils (pH 4.5–6.5) with a light texture.

Chapter 2 Literature Review
CHAPTER 2 LITERATURE REVIEW 2.1 Medicinal Mushrooms Over the last few decades, the herbal medicines and treatment remedies used in traditional medicine have emerged as an important theme in the prevention and treatment of various human diseases and disorders. The development of traditional medicine of various cultures has earned this distinguish branch of medical-related discipline the term "Complementary and Alternative Medicine" (CAM) (World Health Organization, 2000). Furthermore, there has been an increasing popularity in integrative medicine, where conventional Western medical treatments are combined with CAM for which there is evidence of safety and effectiveness (National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine, 2008, Updated July 2011). Herbal medicines or dietary supplements, being the most popular and lucrative form of traditional medicine, form the major domain in CAM. This eventuates to the development of “mushroom nutriceuticals” which refers to extracts derived from mycelium or fruiting body of mushrooms having potential therapeutic application (Chang & Buswell, 1996). Mushroom, as defined by Change & Miles (2004), is "a macrofungus with a distinctive fruiting body which can be either epigeous (above ground) or hypogeous (underground) and large enough to be seen with the naked eye and to be picked by hand". Mushroom has been consumed as food and medicine since the ancient times in many different parts of the world. Early civilizations including Greeks, Egyptians, Romans, Chinese and Mexicans regarded mushrooms as a delicacy and often used them in religious ceremonies. The Romans regarded mushrooms as “Food of the Gods” – serving them only on festive occasions, while the Chinese treasured mushrooms as the “elixir of life” (Chang & Miles, 2004). -

Extensive macro- and microscopical descriptions and illustrations of the main anatomical features are provided. Similarities Arcangeliella with other sequestrate Russulales and their phylogenetic relationships are discussed. The placement of the species gasteroid fungi within Lactarius and its subgenera is confirmed by a molecular phylogeny based on ITS, LSU and rpb2 markers. hypogeous fungi A species key of the new taxa, including five other known angiocarpous species from South East Asia reported to Lactarius exude milk, is given. The diversity of angiocarpous fungi in tropical areas is considered underestimated and driving Martellia evolutionary forces towards gasteromycetization are probably more diverse than generally assumed. The discovery morphology of a large diversity of angiocarpous milkcaps on a rather local tropical scale was unexpected, and especially the phylogeny fact that in Sri Lanka more angiocarpous than agaricoid Lactarius species are known now.

(2019): Patterns of Hericium coralloides growth with competitive fungi. – Czech Mycol. 71(1): 49–63. Growth and morphological patterns of cultures were examined for two strains of Hericium coralloides during competitive colonisation of different nutrient media. The nutrient chemical com- position of the medium was found to play an important role in the manifestation of antagonistic po- tencies of cultures. On the nutrient-poor Czapek medium with cellulose, radial growth of the mono- culture was very slow. However, in triple confrontation cultures, the rate of substrate colonisation in- creased, and a positive effect on H. coralloides growth was observed. On all the examined media, Fomes fomentarius was consistently antagonistic to H. coralloides. The less suitable the medium for H. coralloides growth, the greater inhibitory effect was observed, but only in the combination of H. coralloides and F. fomentarius. This effect was observed for both strains of Hericium. Schizo- phyllum commune displayed both an antagonistic and a stimulating influence on H. -

MUSHROOMS of the OTTAWA NATIONAL FOREST Compiled By
MUSHROOMS OF THE OTTAWA NATIONAL FOREST Compiled by Dana L. Richter, School of Forest Resources and Environmental Science, Michigan Technological University, Houghton, MI for Ottawa National Forest, Ironwood, MI March, 2011 Introduction There are many thousands of fungi in the Ottawa National Forest filling every possible niche imaginable. A remarkable feature of the fungi is that they are ubiquitous! The mushroom is the large spore-producing structure made by certain fungi. Only a relatively small number of all the fungi in the Ottawa forest ecosystem make mushrooms. Some are distinctive and easily identifiable, while others are cryptic and require microscopic and chemical analyses to accurately name. This is a list of some of the most common and obvious mushrooms that can be found in the Ottawa National Forest, including a few that are uncommon or relatively rare. The mushrooms considered here are within the phyla Ascomycetes – the morel and cup fungi, and Basidiomycetes – the toadstool and shelf-like fungi. There are perhaps 2000 to 3000 mushrooms in the Ottawa, and this is simply a guess, since many species have yet to be discovered or named. This number is based on lists of fungi compiled in areas such as the Huron Mountains of northern Michigan (Richter 2008) and in the state of Wisconsin (Parker 2006). The list contains 227 species from several authoritative sources and from the author’s experience teaching, studying and collecting mushrooms in the northern Great Lakes States for the past thirty years. Although comments on edibility of certain species are given, the author neither endorses nor encourages the eating of wild mushrooms except with extreme caution and with the awareness that some mushrooms may cause life-threatening illness or even death. -

Fungi from the Owyhee Region
FUNGI FROM THE OWYHEE REGION OF SOUTHERN IDAHO AND EASTERN OREGON bY Marcia C. Wicklow-Howard and Julie Kaltenecker Boise State University Boise, Idaho Prepared for: Eastside Ecosystem Management Project October 1994 THE OWYHEE REGION The Owyhee Region is south of the Snake River and covers Owyhee County, Idaho, Malheur County, Oregon, and a part of northern Nevada. It extends approximately from 115” to 118” West longitude and is bounded by parallels 41” to 44”. Owyhee County includes 7,662 square miles, Malheur County has 9,861 square miles, and the part of northern Nevada which is in the Owyhee River watershed is about 2,900 square miles. The elevations in the region range from about 660 m in the Snake River Plains and adjoining Owyhee Uplands to 2522 m at Hayden Peak in the Owyhee Mountains. Where the Snake River Plain area is mostly sediment-covered basalt, the area south of the Snake River known as the Owyhee Uplands, includes rolling hills, sharply dissected by basaltic plateaus. The Owyhee Mountains have a complex geology, with steep slopes of both basalt and granite. In the northern areas of the Owyhee Mountains, the steep hills, mountains, and escarpments consist of basalt. In other areas of the mountains the steep slopes are of granitic or rhyolitic origin. The mountains are surrounded by broad expanses of sagebrush covered plateaus. The soils of the Snake River Plains are generally non-calcareous and alkaline. Most are well-drained, with common soil textures of silt loam, loam and fine sand loam. In the Uplands and Mountains, the soils are often coarse textured on the surface, while the subsoils are loamy and non-calcareous.
