For the propagation of fungal mycelia in appeared only at the initial phase of mycelia growth after which laboratory an optimum medium is required, the composition the mycelia continued to grow, blocking bacterial growth in the of which provides all the essential nutrients offered via center of the agar plates. Therefore, we presumed that these symbiosis naturally by host trees.

La documentazione, circa la loro presenza, viene dedotta dai resti fossili venuti recente- mente alla luce, risalenti a moltissimi milioni di anni fa: nei resti del carbonifero (300 milioni di anni fa) sono, infatti, riconoscibili varietà di funghi ancora oggi presenti tra le specie della flora fungina. Le popolazioni primordiali, agli inizi della civiltà umana, hanno avuto sicuramente di- mestichezza con i funghi, sia per scopi alimentari che per pratiche religiose ed arti- stiche. Oggi non siamo a conoscenza del significato che i funghi rappresentavano per l‟uomo primitivo. Non è noto, infatti, se egli se ne nutrisse o se li ignorasse, né tanto- meno se fosse in grado di distinguere le specie eduli da quelle velenose. Tra gli oggetti ritrovati nello zaino dell‟uomo di Similaun, risalente a più di 5000 anni fa, vi erano anche funghi allucinogeni secchi.

The most significant features to distinguish the new species from other known Cantharellus are its extremely fleshy, turning gray after injury and with black floccose-fibrillose scales composed of thick-walled and irregular, erect hyphae on the pileus. It is described from the subalpine belt of Shangri-La, northwestern Yunnan, China. Phylogenetic analysis of the transcription elongation factor 1-alpha sequence data further support its systematic position in the subgenus Cantharellus and its descrip- tion as a new species.

    THE MUSHROOMS OF MOUNT HOPE CEMETERY Text and photography by Marie F. Heerkens This ongoing survey of the mushrooms and other fungi in Mount Hope Cemetery was made possible by an inquiry and an invitation from Marilyn Nolte. I enjoyed starting this project and photographing various fungal species over the summer and early fall of 2009. The wonderful variety of terrain and trees of the Mount Hope Cemetery makes it a great place to find a wide variety of mushrooms. To start with, what is a mushroom? All Cantharellus cibarius. The Chanterelle is a member of a very interesting group of mushrooms belong to the kingdom of mushroomsthat have gill ridges that are not true gills. These ridges are often forked and have cross veins between them. The yellow chanterelle is quite vivid and easily seen fungi. The mushroom we see along the forestfloor. Chanterelles also have a delicate scent of apricots. aboveground or emerging from decaying wood is the fruiting body of the fungus. The function of this mushroom is to distribute the spores being produced by specialized cells that usually line the gills or other surfaces of the mushroom. You may see mushrooms growing in association with certain trees. These are known as "mycorrhizal" which have a symbiotic connection with tree roots. Others are "saprophytic" which grow on dead wood and other organic matter. There are also "parasitic" mushrooms that grow on living plants, and even other mushrooms. The mycelium are the hidden structures of the fungi that grow in and around the substrate that are comparable to the roots of a plant.

Plenty of August rain lends optimism for a bumper crop. Our highly anticipated annual event will be held on Sunday, October 19th, 2008, at Bloedel Donovan Park in the pavilion from 12:00 pm until 5:00 pm. We will assemble, as is customary, with our massive collections of mushrooms in tow, on Saturday, October 18th, to begin the arduous process of sorting, classifying, and identify- ing our catch to prepare them for dazzlingly artistic display in the appropriate moss and earth laden trays. All are welcomed and encourage to help in any capacity you feel comfortable in doing. We will need people to put together the display trays, stage the actual displays, and help at the various stations in the identification process. We will also need help at the end, to put everything away and clean up. The show is the highlight and culmination of our mushrooming season, and it is fast becoming a public favorite in Bellingham. It is also a great deal of work for the people invoved. The more people we have to put it on, the more impressive it will be, so volunteer! Contact Jack at 360-303 4079, or at: [email protected].

Volk) Three new species, Cantharellus phasmatis, Cantharellus flavus, and Cantharellus spectaculus, previously considered Cantharellus cibarius are described in this study. Morphological differences between these new species and their distinction from other Cantharellus species were supported by molecular data from at least two of the three loci included in our analysis (nLSU, ITS, & TEF1). Cantharellus phasmatis and C. flavus are shown to share a most recent common ancestor with the recently described species from the southern United States, Cantharellus tenuithrix, while C. spectaculus is in a much more distantly related clade. In addition, we elevate Cantharellus cibarius var. roseocanus to the species level based on molecular data that suggest its range extends across North America. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS PAGE LIST OF FIGURES...………...............,.……………………….………........…….……..vi CHAPTER I: INTRODUCTION, LITERATURE, AND PROPOSAL…………………..1 Introduction……….…............................………………………………………...1 Presentation of literature………………………………………………………….3 Morphology……..........................................................................................3

  • Systematic Studies on Wild Edible Mushroom Cantharellus Cibarius Fries Collected from Shimla Hills of Himachal Pradesh, India
    ISSN(Online) : 2319-8753 ISSN (Print) : 2347-6710 International Journal of Innovative Research in Science, Engineering and Technology (An ISO 3297: 2007 Certified Organization) Vol. 5, Issue 12, December 2016 Systematic Studies on Wild Edible Mushroom Cantharellus cibarius Fries Collected from Shimla Hills of Himachal Pradesh, India Dr. Renu Rana Associate Professor, Department of Botany, RKMV Shimla, India ABSTRACT: Cantharellus cibarius,,commonly known as the chanterelle, or girolle, is a fungus. It is probably the best known species of the genus Cantharellus, if not the entire family of Cantharellaceae. It is orange or yellow, meaty and funnel-shaped. On the lower surface, underneath the smooth cap, it has gill-like ridges that run almost all the way down its stipe, which tapers down seamlessly from the cap. It emits a fruity aroma, reminiscent of apricots and a mildly peppery taste (hence its German name, Pfifferling) and is considered an excellent edible mushroom. Many popular methods of cooking chanterelles include them in sautés, soufflés, cream sauces, and soups. They are not typically eaten raw, as their rich and complex flavor is best released when cooked. Stem (stipe). The length of the stem is usually similar to the width of the cap and about the same color as the rest of the mushroom. Flesh is yellowish white. Spore print will be whitish to slightly yellow. Cantharellus cibarius is being described from Shimla hills of Himachal Pradesh. Its habit, habitat ecology, brief morphological description, macro and microscopic details and edibility have been incorporated in this communication. KEYWORDS: chanterelle, reminiscent of apricots, funnel-shaped, Hymenium, Melzer's reagent, Lactophenol, camera lucida., Cantharellus cibarius.
