Evolution of the Toxins Muscarine and Psilocybin in a Family of Mushroom-Forming Fungi
Evolution of the Toxins Muscarine and Psilocybin in a Family of Mushroom-Forming Fungi Pawel Kosentka1*, Sarah L. Sprague2, Martin Ryberg3, Jochen Gartz4, Amanda L. May5, Shawn R. Campagna5, P. Brandon Matheny3 1 Department of Biochemistry and Cellular and Molecular Biology, University of Tennessee, Knoxville, Tennessee, United States of America, 2 Department of Psychology, University of Tennessee, Knoxville, Tennessee, United States of America, 3 Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, University of Tennessee, Knoxville, Tennessee, United States of America, 4 MITZ Merseburg, Merseburg, Germany, 5 Department of Chemistry, University of Tennessee, Knoxville, Tennessee, United States of America Abstract Mushroom-forming fungi produce a wide array of toxic alkaloids. However, evolutionary analyses aimed at exploring the evolution of muscarine, a toxin that stimulates the parasympathetic nervous system, and psilocybin, a hallucinogen, have never been performed. The known taxonomic distribution of muscarine within the Inocybaceae is limited, based only on assays of species from temperate regions of the northern hemisphere. Here, we present a review of muscarine and psilocybin assays performed on species of Inocybaceae during the last fifty years. To supplement these results, we used liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (LC–MS/MS) to determine whether muscarine was present in 30 new samples of Inocybaceae, the majority of which have not been previously assayed or that originated from either the tropics or temperate regions of the southern hemisphere. Our main objective is to test the hypothesis that the presence of muscarine is a shared ancestral feature of the Inocybaceae. In addition, we also test whether species of Inocyabceae that produce psilocybin are monophyletic. -

Florule Evolutive Des Basidiomycotina Du Finistere
Alain GERAULT FLORULE EVOLUTIVE DES BASIDIOMYCOTINA DU FINISTERE HOMOBASIDIOMYCETES CORTINARIALES Octobre 2005 Version 2.0 2 AVERTISSEMENT Il ne s’agit pas à proprement parler d’une flore mais d’une liste commentée et descriptive des espèces d’AGARICOMYCETIDEAE trouvées dans le Finistère. Elle est destinée à servir de base à la réalisation de l’inventaire des champignons du Finistère dans le cadre de l’inventaire national. Si l’étude des champignons “ supérieurs ” du Finistère a commencé dés le 19 ème siècle avec les mycologues Morlaisiens et Brestois, leurs travaux sont cependant difficilement exploitables. En effet la mycologie était encore balbutiante à l’époque et il est souvent très difficile de se faire une idée des espèces dont il est fait mention. A l’heure actuelle, la mycologie évolue beaucoup et il est indispensable de fixer, au moins provisoirement, les interprétations retenues pour les espèces déterminées. C’est donc dans ce but, que nous avons réalisé ce relevé des espèces signalées dans le Finistère, selon la nomenclature moderne et selon notre interprétation, qu’il sera aisé de corriger si elle s’avère erronée ou si elle doit être modifiée. Cette florule est enregistrée de manière électronique ce qui lui permet d’être réellement évolutive en quelques instants. Ce relevé étant incomplet nous avons adopté le terme de “ Florule évolutive ” pour bien montrer que beaucoup reste à faire et qu’elle doit être complétée et corrigée en permanence. Cette florule est destinée à tous les mycologues du Finistère (et d’ailleurs) qui voudront bien la considérer seulement comme une base de travail commune pour tenter de se mettre d’accord sur les interprétations à donner à certaines espèces critiques (hélas nombreuses !). -
An Inventory of Fungal Diversity in Ohio Research Thesis Presented In
An Inventory of Fungal Diversity in Ohio Research Thesis Presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for graduation with research distinction in the undergraduate colleges of The Ohio State University by Django Grootmyers The Ohio State University April 2021 1 ABSTRACT Fungi are a large and diverse group of eukaryotic organisms that play important roles in nutrient cycling in ecosystems worldwide. Fungi are poorly documented compared to plants in Ohio despite 197 years of collecting activity, and an attempt to compile all the species of fungi known from Ohio has not been completed since 1894. This paper compiles the species of fungi currently known from Ohio based on vouchered fungal collections available in digitized form at the Mycology Collections Portal (MyCoPortal) and other online collections databases and new collections by the author. All groups of fungi are treated, including lichens and microfungi. 69,795 total records of Ohio fungi were processed, resulting in a list of 4,865 total species-level taxa. 250 of these taxa are newly reported from Ohio in this work. 229 of the taxa known from Ohio are species that were originally described from Ohio. A number of potentially novel fungal species were discovered over the course of this study and will be described in future publications. The insights gained from this work will be useful in facilitating future research on Ohio fungi, developing more comprehensive and modern guides to Ohio fungi, and beginning to investigate the possibility of fungal conservation in Ohio. INTRODUCTION Fungi are a large and very diverse group of organisms that play a variety of vital roles in natural and agricultural ecosystems: as decomposers (Lindahl, Taylor and Finlay 2002), mycorrhizal partners of plant species (Van Der Heijden et al. -
Discovery of Biologically Active Fungal Metabolites Resulting from An
AMC 2019 Plenary Lecture 1 PL1 Discovery of biologically active fungal metabolites resulting from an international, interdisciplinary research scenario Marc Stadler Helmholtz-Centre for Infection Research, Germany Over the past years, we have been able to build up a sustainable, international network with leading researchers from all over the world to explore systematically the mycobiota of tropical countries for their potential to produce novel chemical entities with potential to combat infectious diseases. In addition, we have targeted rare European species that are difficult to culture. Over the past 5 years, these activities have resulted in the discovery of over 150 new bioactive metabolites that were published in over 50 original publications. The key to the success of these projects was actually the collaboration of chemists with leading taxonomists and other biodiversity researchers. Most of the new compounds were isolated from new genera and species that were concurrently discovered in the course of taxonomic studies. Some of the new metabolites discovered have substantial potential for application, even though their evaluation is still in a rather early stage and it may take a long time and substantial efforts and additional funding until they even reach preclinical development. The strategy of this approach will be outlined, also including some highlights from our recent research in an international, interdisciplinary scenario. Asian Mycological Congress 2019 AMC 2019 Plenary Lecture 2 PL2 Cordyceps and cordycipitoid fungi Xingzhong Liu Institute of Microbiology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, China Cordyceps historically comprised over 400 species and some of them are used extensively in traditional Chinese medicine. In the past few decades, the pharmaceutical and cosmetics, health products developed from cordyceps have made great progress of research and development of cordyceps. -

E-mail: [email protected] Abstract: A checklist of species belonging to the families Cortinariaceae and Entolomataceae was made for Argentina. The list includes all species published until the year 2012. Nineteen genera and 444 species were recorded, 370 species from the family Cortinariaceae and 74 from Entolomataceae. All of them are distributed in 19 genera, the most important being Cortinarius (240 species), Galerina (51), Entoloma (39) and Inocybe (40). With the exception of Hebeloma (13 species), Gymnopilus (12) and Clitopilus (11), the rest of the 13 genera have less than 10 species each. Galeropsis, Locellina, Nolanea and Pseudogymnopilus have only one species recorded so far. Introduction and Horak (1976, 1978, 1980, 1982, 1983). The purpose Argentina is located in southern South America, between of this study is to establish a baseline of knowledge 21° and 55° S and 53° and 73° W, covering 3.7 million of about the diversity of species described for the families km². Due to the large size of the country, Argentina has a Cortinariaceae and Entolomataceae in Argentina, as a base vast variety of climates; from humid tropical forests (such for future studies of mushroom diversity. -
