Amanita-Induced Hepatitis

Cureus
The consumption of wild mushrooms can be associated with poisoning, particularly with species containing hepatotoxic toxins such as amatoxin, present in more than 35 species. We present a case of Amanita-induced hepatitis in a 73-year-old man after ingestion of wild mushrooms.

Fungal Diversity and Potential Health Benefits of Mycophagy in Chacma Baboons (Papio ursinus)

American Journal of Primatology, Volume 88, Issue 4, April 2026.
Free‐ranging chacma baboons (Papio ursinus) in Nature's Valley, South Africa, of multiple age/sex classes eat diverse fungi (10 identified to species level, 3 to genus level). We assess potential nutritional, medicinal and ecosystem implications of consumption of these fungi based on human and other mammalian mycophagy literature.

Richness and Composition of Mycorrhizal Fungi Varies by Flood Level and River Basin in Oligotrophic Amazonian Seasonally Flooded Forests

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
Conceptual representation of topographic gradients in Amazonian igapó forests. High, medium, and low igapós differ in elevation and flood duration, with low igapós experiencing the longest periods of inundation. Fungal mycelia and DNA symbols indicate sampling of root‐associated mycorrhizal communities across the gradient, used to assess the influence ...

Wherefore the Magic? The Evolutionary Role of Psilocybin in Nature

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
This study explores the evolutionary role of psilocybin, the psychedelic compound found in Psilocybe mushrooms. We provide the first experimental tests of defence and community‐level evidence for invertebrate responses to psilocybin‐producing fungi, revealing significant negative effects on invertebrate locomotion, development, and survival.

Limitations of Common Molecular Markers in Fungal Biodiversity Analysis and the Benefits of Their Synergistic Use

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 3, April 2026.
ABSTRACT High‐throughput sequencing of the Internal Transcribed Spacer (ITS) regions is the primary method for estimating fungal diversity from environmental DNA. However, reliance solely on ITS markers is complicated by its high variability in sequence length and the presence of multiple variants within a single genome, which can bias diversity ...

Міжфазні явища в композитній системі на основі метилкремнезему та подрібненого гриба Amanita muscaria

Доповiдi Нацiональної академiї наук України
Методом 1Н ЯМР спектроскопії встановлено, що композитні системи АМ-1/Amanita характеризуються значно більшою енергією зв’язуваня води, ніж вихідні речовини, що може бути використано для створення лікарських композитів зі збільшеним часом утримування ...

Unexpected Amanita phalloides-Induced Hematotoxicity—Results from a Retrospective Study

Toxins
Introduction: Amanita phalloides poisoning is a serious health problem with a mortality rate of 10–40%. Poisonings are characterized by severe liver and kidney toxicity. The effect of Amanita phalloides poisonings on hematological parameters has not been
