Development of Simultaneous Analytical Method of Three Polypeptide Toxins α-Amanitin, β-Amanitin and Phalloidin in Poisonous Mushrooms and Human Serum Using UHPLC-MS/MS. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Accidental ingestion of toxic mushrooms remains a global public health concern because of the presence of highly potent peptide toxins such as α‐amanitin, β‐amanitin, and phalloidin. These compounds exhibit strong hepatotoxicity and can lead to acute liver failure and death.

Equipped for success: genomes and metabolomes of the European Amanita muscaria are conserved in its novel South African range. [PDF]
Summary Plants and soils have been moved around the world for centuries, but invasive mushrooms receive scant attention. The Amanita muscaria species complex was introduced to South Africa in the context of forestry, but its origins, ecology and recent evolution are unstudied. We sequenced the genomes of 24 Northern and Southern Hemisphere A. muscaria,
