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.

Kummer and its acceptance as type species of Armillaria (Fr.:Fr.) Staude. Due to recognition of different type species over the years and an extremely variable generic concept, at least 274 species and varieties have been placed in Armillaria (or in Armillariella Karst., its obligate synonym). Only about forty species belong in the genus Armillaria sensu stricto, while the rest can be placed in forty-three other modem genera. This study is based on original descriptions in the literature, as well as studies of type specimens and generic and species concepts by other authors. This publication consists of an alphabetical listing of all epithets used in Armillaria or Armillariella, with their basionyms, currently accepted names, and other obligate and facultative synonyms.

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.

  • Fungal Genomes Tell a Story of Ecological Adaptations
    Folia Biologica et Oecologica 10: 9–17 (2014) Acta Universitatis Lodziensis Fungal genomes tell a story of ecological adaptations ANNA MUSZEWSKA Institute of Biochemistry and Biophysics, Polish Academy of Sciences, Pawinskiego 5A, 02-106 Warsaw, Poland E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT One genome enables a fungus to have various lifestyles and strategies depending on environmental conditions and in the presence of specific counterparts. The nature of their interactions with other living and abiotic elements is a consequence of their osmotrophism. The ability to degrade complex compounds and especially plant biomass makes them a key component of the global carbon circulation cycle. Since the first fungal genomic sequence was published in 1996 mycology has benefited from the technolgical progress. The available data create an unprecedented opportunity to perform massive comparative studies with complex study design variants targeted at all cellular processes.

  • Identification of the Armillaria Root Rot Pathogen in Ethiopian
    For. Path. 34 (2004) 133–145 Ó 2004 Blackwell Verlag, Berlin ISSN 1437–4781 Identification of the Armillaria root rot pathogen in Ethiopian plantations By A. Gezahgne1, M. P. A. Coetzee2, B. D. Wingfield2, M. J. Wingfield1 and J. Roux1,3 Departments of 1Plant Pathology and Microbiology, and 2Genetics, Forestry and Agricultural Biotechnology Institute (FABI), University of Pretoria, Pretoria, South Africa. 3E-mail: [email protected] (for correspondence) Summary Armillaria root rot is a well-known disease on a wide range of plants, world-wide. In Ethiopia, the disease has previously been reported on Pinus spp., Coffea arabica and on various native hardwoods. The causal agent of the disease has been attributed to Armillaria mellea, a species now known to represent a complex of many different taxa. The aim of this study was to determine the extent of Armillaria root rot and the identity of the Armillaria sp. in Ethiopian plantations. As part of a plantation disease survey in 2000 and 2001, samples were collected in plantations at and around Munessa Shashemene, Wondo Genet, Jima, Mizan and Bedele, in south and south-western Ethiopia. Basidiocarps were collected and their morphology studied. Morphological identification was confirmed by sequencing the intergenic spacer (IGS-1) region of the ribosomal rRNA operon and comparing data with published sequences of Armillaria spp. Armillaria isolates were collected from Acacia abyssinica, Pinus patula, Cedrela odorata and Cordia alliodora trees. Sporocarps were found on stumps of native Juniperus excelsa. Basidiocarp morphology and sequence data suggested that the fungus in Ethiopia is similar to that causing disease of Pinus spp.
