Novel Laccaria Species From Juglandaceae Forest in Panama With Notes on Their Ecology

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Since 2013 there have been 22 new species of Laccaria described worldwide. Only three of these represent species from the neotropics. In Panama, Laccaria is abundant in monodominant Oreomunnea mexicana (Juglandaceae) forests based on sporocarps and ...

Genomic Diversity and Phenotypic Variation in Fungal Decomposers Involved in Bioremediation of Persistent Organic Pollutants

open access: yesJournal of Fungi, 2023
Fungi work as decomposers to break down organic carbon, deposit recalcitrant carbon, and transform other elements such as nitrogen. The decomposition of biomass is a key function of wood-decaying basidiomycetes and ascomycetes, which have the potential ...

Species diversity of pathogenic wood-rotting fungi (Agaricomycetes, Basidiomycota) in China

open access: yesMycology, 2023
Wood-rotting basidiomycetes have been investigated in the Chinese forest ecosystem for the past 30 years. Two hundred and five pathogenic wood-decayers belonging to 9 orders, 30 families, and 74 genera have been found in Chinese native forests ...

Notes on Junghuhnia (Agaricomycetes) in Brazil [PDF]

open access: yesActa Botanica Brasilica, 2016
ABSTRACT Junghuhnia is a cosmopolitan genus of Agaricomycetes (Basidiomycota), mostly characterized by having a dimitic hyphal system and encrusted cystidia. The genus comprises 37 legitimate species, eight of which have been reported in Brazil. This study provides updated information about the diversity and distribution of Junghuhnia in Brazil by ...

The evolution of ectomycorrhizal symbiosis in the Late Cretaceous is a key driver of explosive diversification in Agaricomycetes.

open access: yesNew Phytologist, 2023
Ectomycorrhizal (EcM) symbiosis, a ubiquitous plant-fungus interaction in forests, evolved in parallel in fungi. Why the evolution of EcM fungi did not necessarily increase ecological opportunities for explosive diversification remains unclear.

The relative ages of ectomycorrhizal mushrooms and their plant hosts estimated using Bayesian relaxed molecular clock analyses

open access: yesBMC Biology, 2009
Background Ectomycorrhizae (ECM) are symbioses formed by polyphyletic assemblages of fungi (mostly Agaricomycetes) and plants (mostly Pinaceae and angiosperms in the rosid clade).

Kinesin Motors in the Filamentous Basidiomycetes in Light of the Schizophyllum commune Genome

open access: yesJournal of Fungi, 2022
Kinesins are essential motor molecules of the microtubule cytoskeleton. All eukaryotic organisms have several genes encoding kinesin proteins, which are necessary for various cell biological functions.

Bioremediation of soil contaminated crude oil by Agaricomycetes [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Health Science and Engineering, 2017
One of the most important environmental problems is the decontamination of petroleum hydrocarbons polluted soil, particularly in the oil-rich country. Bioremediation is the most effective way to remove these pollutants in the soil. Spent mushroom compost has great ability to decompose lignin-like pollution.

Evolution of substrate-specific gene expression and RNA editing in brown rot wood-decaying fungi. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Fungi that decay wood have characteristic associations with certain tree species, but the mechanistic bases for these associations are poorly understood.
