Thier s I ii SOME SONOMA COUNTY HYPOGEOUS FUNGI A thesis by Russell Kent Heblack ABSTRACT Purpose of the study: None of the early mycologists who explored the Califor­ nia hypogeous fungal flora recorded the occurrence of these fungi in Sonoma County. This study sought to determine which species of hypogeous fungi are present in Sonoma County and with which woody plants they are associated. Procedure: Field research was done during the two years beginning in December 1975. The· method was to locate stands of woody plants and dig under them in search of hypogeous fungi. Once found, the fungi were identified and pre­ served. Notes were made regarding suspected mycorrhizal associates. Findings: Eighteen species of fungi were found. These fungi are representatives of two classes, Ascomycetes: Balsamia magnata, Genabea cerebriformis, Genea arenaria, Genea gardneri, Genea harknessii, Hydnobolites californicus, Hydnotrya ellipsospora, Tuber californicum, Tuber ~­ didum, and Basidiomycetes: Alpova fulvus, Alpova guerc­ icola, Gautieria graveolens, Gymnomyces ferruginascens, Hymenogaster parksii, Hysterangium se~arabile, Leuco­ gaster rubescens, ~elanogaster parksii, Melanogaster tuberiformis. Some collections, representatives of the genera Rhizopogon, Kartellia, llymenogaster, Balsamia, and Genea, were only identifiable to genera. These may represent undescribed species. Two Alpova species, Alpova fulvus Trappe & Heblack sp. nov. ined. and Alpova guercicola Trappe & Heblack sp. nov. ined., were new to science. All of the fungi found were new distribution records for Sonoma County, and some were found with new woody plant associates. Conclusions: This study has shown that the Sonoma County hypogeous fungal flora is diverse. Within this diverse flora, two iii new species were found and described. It is suspected that additional undescribed species will be discovered by fUture researchers.

Probable mycorrhizal associates ..•..••........... 42 1 INTRODUCTION Truffles and false truffles, hypogeous members of Classes Ascomyceteae and Basidiomyceteae, are relatively little known fungi. Few mycologists collect them and even fewer are well acquainted with their taxonomy(Trappe, 1975). Early in this century there were several workers, centered around the S.F. Bay area, who were quite active in Alameda, Napa, Santa Clara, and Marin Counties. None of these workers (Harkness, 1899; Gilkey, 1916; Parks, 1921) recorded the occurrence of hypogeous fungi in Sonoma County, California. Though these workers reported the occurrence of many hypogeous fungi, they were often vague concerning the woody plant associates of the fungi. It is now known (Trappe, 1974} that most hypogeous rnacromycetes are probably rnycorrhizal. The purpose of this research was to discover which hypogeous fungi occur in Sonoma Co. and with which woody plants they are associated. The research consisted of sampling species of trees and shrubs for hypogeous macro­ mycete associates. This sampling was carried out during the two years beginning in December, 1975. This report demon­ strated the presence of hypogeous fungi in Sonoma Co., and the inventory will undoubtedly expand with further studies. Other workers are urged to continue the search in the county. 2 REVIEW OF THE LITERATURE Evolution There is widespread agreement among mycologists (Thiers, 1971; Heim, 1971) that discussions on the evo­ lution of fungi are speculative, without fossil evidence, and rest on logic, not fact. All of the arguments concerning the origin of hypo­ geous Basidiomycetes are elaborated by workers who are primarily agaricologists like Singer (1962) who are trying to unravel the phylogeny of the Agaricales. These workers often mention the evolution of hypogeous forms because these fungi frequently occupy the spotlight in the argument as to whether evolution has proceeded from agaricoid to gastromycetaceous forms or vice versa. The central argument is agreed upon (Smith, 1971; Singer, 1971; Heim, 1971) and it is best elaborated by Singer (1962): "The three logically possible, and actually inportant theories of today, two of them (2 and J) defended or favored by a group of systematists, are the following: 1. Derivation of the Agaricales from the Gastromycetes and from the Aphyllophorales. 2. Derivation of the Agaricales from the Gastromycetes alone. J. Derivation of the Agaricales from the Aphyllophor­ ales alone." 3 Which group the Agaricales were derived from does not con­ cern this paper; the importance of the above theories is that their elaboration by the three main antagonists, Heim (1948, 1971), Singer (1958, 1962, 1971), Smith (1971, 197J) causes some insight into the evolution of hypogeous forms. Singer and Smith (1960) become the allied proponents of the "Derivation of the Agaricales from the Gastromycetes alone" school, while Heim (1948, 1971) advocates the "Derivation of the Agaricales from the Aphyllophorales alone" theory. The argument centers around whether the Russulaceae evolved via "progressive evolution" (Singer and Smith, 1960) from such hypogeous genera as Gymnomyces and Martellia or vice versa. The arguments become irrational; Singer (1958) states: "Heim and others have drawn rash conclusions from incomplete facts and erroneously believed to have demon­ strated the correctness of their views whereas, in reality, they have only added - valid or questionable: this is a controversial question

  • 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.

  • Systematics of the Genus Rhizopogon Inferred from Nuclear Ribosomal DNA Large Subunit and Internal Transcribed Spacer Sequences
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Lisa C. Grubisha for the degree of Master of Science in Botany and Plant Pathology presented on June 22, 1998. Title: Systematics of the Genus Rhizopogon Inferred from Nuclear Ribosomal DNA Large Subunit and Internal Transcribed Spacer Sequences. Abstract approved Redacted for Privacy Joseph W. Spatafora Rhizopogon is a hypogeous fungal genus that forms ectomycorrhizae with genera of the Pinaceae. The greatest number and species of Rhizopogon are found in coniferous forests of the Pacific Northwestern United States, where members of the Pinaceae are also concentrated. Rhizopogon spp. are host-specific primarily with Pinus spp. and Pseudotsuga spp. and thus are an important component of these forest ecosystems. Rhizopogon includes over 100 species; however, the systematics of Rhizopogon have not been well understood. Currently the genus is placed in the Boletales, an order of ectomycorrhizal fungi that are primarily epigeous and have a tubular hymenium. Suillus is a stipitate genus closely related to Rhizopogon that is also in the Boletales and host specific with Pinaceae.I examined the relationship of Rhizopogon to Suillus and other genera in the Boletales. Infrageneric relationships in Rhizopogon were also investigated to test current taxonomic hypotheses and species concepts. Through phylogenetic analyses of large subunit and internal transcribed spacer nuclear ribosomal DNA sequences, I found that Rhizopogon and Suillus formed distinct monophyletic groups. Rhizopogon was composed of four distinct groups; sections Amylopogon and Villosuli were strongly supported monophyletic groups. Section Rhizopogon was not monophyletic, and formed two distinct clades. Section Fulviglebae formed a strongly supported group within section Villosuli.

Read Full License Page 1/23 Abstract Malanogaster are ectomycorrhizal fungi characterized by hypogeous fruitbodies. Many ITS rDNA sequences of Malanogaster are recovered from molecular surveys of fungal communities, and remain insuciently identied making it dicult to determine whether these sequences represent conspecic or novel taxa. In this study, the ITS sequences of Malanogaster were collected comprehensively and analyzed within ITS-based phylogenetic framework. Twenty-one distinct phylogenetic species can be distinguished based on the ITS phylogeny and a threshold of 98% ITS sequence identity, and most species of Melanogaster showed more than 98.1% intraspecic ITS identity and less than 97.9% interspecic identity. Ten species were recognized from China, but combined morphology, nine of which were described and illustrated in this manuscript, including 4 new species (M. minobovatus nov. sp., M. panzhihuaensis nov. sp., M. quercus nov. sp. and M. tomentellus nov. sp.), 1 new combination (M. obvatus comb. & stat. nov.), and 4 known species (M.

    Boletales – Boletaceae s.l. (26 October 2020, © R. E. Halling) NOTE: 104 genera listed here are conceived in a broad, classical sense (generally the fleshy stipitate mushrooms with pores) including sequestrate morphologies. Phylogenetic inferences from DNA sequences suggest alignment in suborders: Boletineae, Suillineae, Sclerodermatineae, or in the Paxillaceae. Not all genera are well known, equally circumscribed or robustly inferred phylogenetically. Mycorrhizal associations may be confirmed, but many are presumed or suspected. Recent phylogenetic analyses based on DNA sequences infer some true gasteroid (truffle-like, sequestrate) taxa (aside from those in Sclerodermatineae, Suillineae) belong here. Some of the diagnoses are from protologues. Year of publication follows authority (-ies). Afroboletus Pegler & Young (1981) Pileus dry, coarsely fibrillose to squamose, black, often with appendiculate veil remnants, microscopically a trichodermium. Context white, staining red then black. Hymenophore adnexed, white then black, staining red then black. Peronate veil present. Stipe dry, squamose, sometimes annulate, white to gray to black. Spores black, short ellipsoid, longitudinally ridged or winged, sometimes with intercostal veins; a basal thickened rim around sterigmal appendage, lacking a plage. Hymenial cystidia present. Clamp connections absent. Apparently restricted to the African tropics. One sequestrate species known. Ectomycorrhizae presumed with caesalpinoid legumes. Afrocastellanoa M.E. Smith & Orihara (2017) From the protologue: Basidiomata sequestrate, gasteroid, firm, rubbery, with one or a few rhizomorphs at the base. Similar to Octaviania in the morphology of the basidiome and basidiospores, but different from Octaviania in the multilayered peridium and in basidia that are irregularly distributed within the solid gleba, resulting in the absence of a distinct hymenium and subhymenium.
