Studies on Ear Fungus-Auricularia from the Woodland of Nameri National Park, Sonitpur District, Assam
International Journal of Interdisciplinary and Multidisciplinary Studies (IJIMS), 2014, Vol 1, No.5, 262-265. 262 Available online at http://www.ijims.com ISSN: 2348 – 0343 Studies on Ear Fungus-Auricularia from the Woodland of Nameri National Park, Sonitpur District, Assam. M.P. Choudhury1*, Dr.T.C Sarma2 1.Department of Botany, Nowgong College, Nagaon -782001, Assam, India. 2.Department of Botany, Gauhati University,Guwahati-7810 14, Assam, India. *Corresponding author: M.P. Choudhury Abstract Auricularia is the genus of the order Auriculariales with more than 10 species. It is also called ear fungus due to its morphological similarities with human ear and has considerable mythological importance. Auricularia auricula is the type species of the order Auriculariales. Different species of Auricularia are edible and some have medicinal importance and still investigations are going on other species to find out their medicinal properties. Extensive woodland of Nameri National Park provides ideal condition for the growth of different species of Auricularia. In this context the present study has been undertaken to study the taxonomy and diversity of different species of Auricularia and bring together information of its ethenomycological uses. As a result of field and laboratory study four different species of Auricularia were collected of which 3 species were identified and one species remain unidentified. Key Words: Auricularia, Taxonomy, Diversity, Nameri National Park. Introduction Auricularia belongs to the order Auriculariales is the largest genus of jelly fungi. They are among the most common and widely distributed members of macrofungi, which generally occurs as saprophytes on wood, logs, branch and twigs causing severe degrees of white rotting of forest trees. -
Fertility-Dependent Effects of Ectomycorrhizal Fungal Communities on White Spruce Seedling Nutrition

Appendix K. Survey and Manage Species Persistence Evaluation
Appendix K. Survey and Manage Species Persistence Evaluation Establishment of the 95-foot wide construction corridor and TEWAs would likely remove individuals of H. caeruleus and modify microclimate conditions around individuals that are not removed. The removal of forests and host trees and disturbance to soil could negatively affect H. caeruleus in adjacent areas by removing its habitat, disturbing the roots of host trees, and affecting its mycorrhizal association with the trees, potentially affecting site persistence. Restored portions of the corridor and TEWAs would be dominated by early seral vegetation for approximately 30 years, which would result in long-term changes to habitat conditions. A 30-foot wide portion of the corridor would be maintained in low-growing vegetation for pipeline maintenance and would not provide habitat for the species during the life of the project. Hygrophorus caeruleus is not likely to persist at one of the sites in the project area because of the extent of impacts and the proximity of the recorded observation to the corridor. Hygrophorus caeruleus is likely to persist at the remaining three sites in the project area (MP 168.8 and MP 172.4 (north), and MP 172.5-172.7) because the majority of observations within the sites are more than 90 feet from the corridor, where direct effects are not anticipated and indirect effects are unlikely. The site at MP 168.8 is in a forested area on an east-facing slope, and a paved road occurs through the southeast part of the site. Four out of five observations are more than 90 feet southwest of the corridor and are not likely to be directly or indirectly affected by the PCGP Project based on the distance from the corridor, extent of forests surrounding the observations, and proximity to an existing open corridor (the road), indicating the species is likely resilient to edge- related effects at the site. -

Emmanuel E Essien*, Victor N Mkpenie, and Stella M Akpan. Department of Chemistry, University of Uyo, Akwa Ibom State, Nigeria. ABSTRACT Fruiting bodies of wild edible medicinal mushrooms, Bondazewia berkeleyi, Auricularia auricula and Ganoderma lucidum, were analyzed for the presence of secondary metabolites and concentrations of toxic (Cd, Cr, Ni, Pb) and essential (Co, Cu, K, Li, Mn, Na, Zn) elements. The results revealed the presence of alkaloids, flavonoids, triterpenoids, saponins and carbohydrates in varied amounts. Tannins and phlobatannins were not detected. The levels (in ppm) of Na (156.80±310), K (246.20±6.62), Li (10.53±2.10), Zn (30.80±2.30), Cu (3.80±0.10), Mn (18.40±2.24), Co (2.98±0.17), Ni (0.024±0.080) and Cd (0.004±0.012) were highest in G. lucidum. Auricularia auricula showed the highest concentration (in ppm) of Pb (0.027±0.012) and Cr (0.005±0.100). However, the levels of the metals did not exceed the FAO/WHO stipulated dietary standards. This is the first chemical assessment of B. berkeleyi polypore. Keywords: Mushroom, Polypore, Secondary metabolites, Mineral nutrients, Dietary standards. *Corresponding author March – April 2015 RJPBCS 6(2) Page No. 200 ISSN: 0975-8585 INTRODUCTION Mushrooms are plant-like microorganisms, which grow like plant but are without chlorophyll. They depend on other organisms or plants for their nutrition. Information available in literature shows that mushrooms were first known to early Greeks and Romans who divided them into edible, poisonous, and medicinal mushrooms [1,2]. -

China *Corresponding author’s e-mail: [email protected] Abstract A new wood-inhabiting fungal species, Heteroradulum yunnanensis, is proposed based on a combination of morphological features and molecular evidence. The species is characterized by an annual growth habit, resupinate basidiomata with odontoid hymenial surface (50–100 µm long), more or less pronounced yellow stains in older basidiomata, a monomitic hyphal system with thin-walled, clamped generative hyphae and two to three-celled basidia and cylindrical, hyaline, thin- walled, smooth, IKI–, CB– basidiospores measuring as 17–24 ×5–8 µm. Sequences of ITS and LSU nrRNA gene regions of the studied samples were generated, and phylogenetic analyses were performed with maximum likelihood, maximum parsimony and bayesian inference methods. The phylogenetic analyses based on molecular data of ITS+nLSU sequences showed that Heteroradulum yunnanensis formed a monophyletic lineage with a strong support (100% BS, 100% BP, 1.00 BPP) and then grouped with H. -

Mycosphere 10(1), 310–489, Doi 10.5943/mycosphere/10/1/7 Abstract Leotiomycetes is regarded as the inoperculate class of discomycetes within the phylum Ascomycota. Taxa are mainly characterized by asci with a simple pore blueing in Melzer’s reagent, although some taxa have lost this character. The monophyly of this class has been verified in several recent molecular studies. However, circumscription of the orders, families and generic level delimitation are still unsettled. This paper provides a modified backbone tree for the class Leotiomycetes based on phylogenetic analysis of combined ITS, LSU, SSU, TEF, and RPB2 loci. In the phylogenetic analysis, Leotiomycetes separates into 19 clades, which can be recognized as orders and order-level clades.
