Multi-gene phylogeny and taxonomy of Hydnum (Hydnaceae, Cantharellales) including a global phylogeny of ITS sequences for the genus [PDF]
Hydnum species are called “hedgehogs” or “tooth fungi” because of their spinose hymenophores. Considering its edible and ectomycorrhizal nature, Hydnum has been found to possess high economic and ecological values. In the present study, a multi-gene (ITS-

Molecular phylogeny and morphology reveal four new species in Hymenochaetales and one new species in Cantharellales from Southwestern China [PDF]
Wood-decaying fungi represent a vital group of higher fungi that drive the cycling of matter and energy in forest ecosystems, and they have been the focus of thorough investigation. In this study, five new species, viz.

Two new species of Sistotrema s.l. (Cantharellales) from Japan with descriptions of their ectomycorrhizae. [PDF]
We describe two new species of resupinate Sistotrema sensu lato (Cantharellales) collected in Japan: S. flavorhizomorphae and S. chloroporum. Both species have urniform basidia with more than four sterigmata and monomitic hyphal system, oil-rich hyphae in subiculum, which is typical for this genus.

Diversity of ESI-MS Based Phosphatidylcholine Profiles in Basidiomycetes [PDF]
Phosphatidylcholines (PC) are the main membrane lipid constituents comprising more than 50% of total glycerophospholipids. They coordinate a number of cell functions, particularly cell growth, homeostasis, secretion, recognition and communication.

Altered gut fungi in systemic lupus erythematosus – A pilot study [PDF]
ObjectiveGut fungi, as symbiosis with the human gastrointestinal tract, may regulate physiology via multiple interactions with host cells. The plausible role of fungi in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is far from clear and need to be explored ...

Origins of xyloglucan-degrading enzymes in fungi. [PDF]
Summary The origin story of land plants – the pivotal evolutionary event that paved the way for terrestrial ecosystems of today to flourish – lies within their closest living relatives: the streptophyte algae. Streptophyte cell wall composition has evolved such that profiles of cell wall polysaccharides can be used as taxonomic markers.

Habitat Disturbance Promotes Shifts in the Abundance of Major Fungal Phyla in the Roots of a Native Orchid, <i>Tipularia discolor</i>. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Orchids are a widely distributed group of flowering plants with important roles in ecosystems around the globe. However, many species are in decline due, in part, to human‐driven changes in their habitat. It is well established that orchids are reliant on specific groups of mycorrhizal fungi for growth and reproduction and that these fungi can

Phylogenetic relationships of Rhizoctonia fungi within the Cantharellales [PDF]
Phylogenetic relationships of Rhizoctonia fungi within the order Cantharellales were studied using sequence data from portions of the ribosomal DNA cluster regions ITS-LSU, rpb2, tef1, and atp6 for 50 taxa, and public sequence data from the rpb2 locus for 165 taxa.
