A New Species of Antrodia (Basidiomycota, Polypores) from China
Mycosphere 8(7): 878–885 (2017) www.mycosphere.org ISSN 2077 7019 Article Doi 10.5943/mycosphere/8/7/4 Copyright © Guizhou Academy of Agricultural Sciences A new species of Antrodia (Basidiomycota, Polypores) from China Chen YY, Wu F* Institute of Microbiology, Beijing Forestry University, Beijing 100083, China Chen YY, Wu F 2017 –A new species of Antrodia (Basidiomycota, Polypores) from China. Mycosphere 8(7), 878–885, Doi 10.5943/mycosphere/8/7/4 Abstract A new species, Antrodia monomitica sp. nov., is described and illustrated from China based on morphological characters and molecular evidence. It is characterized by producing annual, fragile and nodulose basidiomata, a monomitic hyphal system with clamp connections on generative hyphae, hyaline, thin-walled and fusiform to mango-shaped basidiospores (6–7.5 × 2.3– 3 µm), and causing a typical brown rot. In phylogenetic analysis inferred from ITS and nLSU rDNA sequences, the new species forms a distinct lineage in the Antrodia s. l., and has a close relationship with A. oleracea. Key words – Fomitopsidaceae – phylogenetic analysis – taxonomy – wood-decaying fungi Introduction Antrodia P. Karst., typified with Polyporus serpens Fr. (=Antrodia albida (Fr.) Donk (Donk 1960, Ryvarden 1991), is characterized by a resupinate to effused-reflexed growth habit, white or pale colour of the context, a dimitic hyphal system with clamp connections on generative hyphae, hyaline, thin-walled, cylindrical to very narrow ellipsoid basidiospores which are negative in Melzer’s reagent and Cotton Blue, and causing a brown rot (Ryvarden & Melo 2014). Antrodia is a highly heterogeneous genus which is closely related to Fomitopsis P. -

Yield, Vegetation and Succession in Reserved Fields in Central Finland
JOURNAL OF THE SCIENTIFIC AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY OF FINLAND Maataloustieteellinen A ikakauskirja Vol. 49: 221-238, 1977 Yield, vegetation and succession in reserved fields in Central Finland Heikki Hokkanen and Mikko Raatikainen University of Jyväskylä, Department of Biology Vapaudenkatu 4, 40100 Jyväskylä 10 Finland Abstract. 51 reserved fields were studied with the harvest method in Central Finland in 1974. 107 vascular plant taxa were identified, having a total oven-dry green biomass of 273.5 g/m 2 on the average, and a total mean biomass of 1458.1 g/m2. The amount of the above-ground biomass stays about the same at least for three years after 2 3 years of increase, whereas the underground biomass increases strongly at least during the first six years, if succession starts after open cultivation. The general tendency in succession at the species level is for the typical weed species of open cultivations to reduce in a few years, and for the species of meadow vegetation to increase both in frequency and abundance. Five vegetation types were distinguished: I) Galeopsis-type, 2) Phleum-type, 3) Anthoxanthum-type, 4) Deschampsia-type, and 5) Elytrigia-type. They can all be placed into a certain succession scheme that is mainly determined by the age, soil and moisture conditions of the reserved field. 1. Introduction Based on the Field Reservation Act (216/1969), about 8 % of the cultivated area in Finland had been reserved by the end of 1974 (Anon. 1975). Research on the productivity, care and effect on the environments of the reserved fields was started in the University of Jyväskylä in 1973. -

Their diversity and simple macro- and 203 WOOD RESEARCH micromorphology of fungal structures have been major obstacles for more rapid progress in this regard. However, over the past two decades, there has been substantial progress in our understanding of genetic variability within traditionally recognized morphospecies. In this study we have overviewed genetic variation and phylogeography of macrofungi, which are important destroyers of wooden materials indoor of buildings. Several morphologically defined species of these fungal destroyers (Coniophora puteana, C. olivacea, C. arida, Serpula himantioides) have been shown to actually encompass several genetically isolated lineages (cryptic species). The protective efficacy against cryptic species within traditionally recognized morphospecies through laboratory tests (EN 113) and field trials (EN 252) might be sufficient to better prognosis of decay development in wooden materials for hazard assessment and for proper conservation and management plans. -
Influence of Soil Characteristics on Wood Biodeterioration by Brown
applied sciences Article Influence of Soil Characteristics on Wood Biodeterioration by Brown Rot Fungi Javier Ribera 1,* , Elisabeth Michel 2 and Francis W. M. R. Schwarze 1 1 Laboratory for Cellulose & Wood Materials, Empa, 5, 9014 St. Gallen, Switzerland; [email protected] 2 Laboratory for Advanced Fibers, Empa, 5, 9014 St. Gallen, Switzerland; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 21 November 2020; Accepted: 9 December 2020; Published: 10 December 2020 Abstract: Soil conditions can directly influence the inoculum potential of wood decay fungi, which is likely to be a major factor in the premature failure of utility poles across Europe. The objective of our study was to assess the influence of soil pH, humic acid and iron on wood decay. For this purpose, we incubated Fe-impregnated wood specimens on artificial medium to evaluate the influence of the metal on the activity of brown rot fungi. Moreover, the impact of Cu-leaching from impregnated wood specimens that were exposed to humic acid solutions was measured. In addition, weight losses caused by brown rot fungi in impregnated wood pole segments and stiffness (Young’s modulus of Elasticity) of Cu-impregnated wood specimens were quantified. The pH measurements showed that the soil samples were slightly acid (pH = 6.7 0.7). In comparison to non-impregnated controls, ± the Fe-impregnated samples significantly increased weight losses by brown rot fungi (>30–40%). In the presence of humic acid the release of copper from chromium-free wood preservatives (up to 1 143.34 mg L− ) was enhanced. Weight losses in impregnated wood segments by brown rot fungi ranged from 5.3 to 20.4%. -

The Use of Regional Phylogenies in Exploring the Structure of Plant Assemblages
The use of regional phylogenies in exploring the structure of plant assemblages Tammy L. Elliott Doctor of Philosophy Department of Biology McGill University Montr´eal, Qu´ebec, Canada 2015-09-015 A thesis submitted to McGill University in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy c Copyright Tammy L. Elliott, 2015 All rights reserved Dedication I dedicate this thesis to my parents, who sadly both left this world much to early. I like to dream that you are both enjoying your time together in a place with no worries, where you can enjoy all of the wonderful things in life. Dad—Although you left us when we were so young, I daily cherish the special times the two of us spent together. The memories of exploring the countryside, visiting neighbours, caring for the pigs and skipping school to fish are always close to my heart. Mom—I miss your strength, interesting perspective (albeit humorously pessimistic), no-nonsense attitude towards life and listening ear. I hope that you are finding ways to enjoy your grandchildren and tend your beautiful gardens. I would like to assure you that yes—one day I will have a full-time job. If Roses grow in Heaven Lord, please pick a bunch for me. Place them in my Mother’s arms and tell her they’re from me. Tell her that I love her and miss her, and when she turns to smile, place a kiss upon her cheek and hold her for awhile Because remembering her is easy, I do it every day, but there’s an ache within my heart that will never go away.
