DNA barcode analyses improve accuracy in fungal species distribution models

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 11, Issue 13, Page 8993-9009, July 2021., 2021
This study explores the effect of taxonomic uncertainty in databases used for modeling fungal distributions, comparing models based on species names on voucher specimens with models derived from species identified by DNA barcode. Our results show that taxonomic uncertainty has a strong effect in fungal species distribution models producing misleading ...

The Morphological Characteristics and Phylogenetic Analyses Revealed an Additional Taxon in Heteroradulum (Auriculariales)

open access: yesDiversity, 2022
Auriculariales is diverse, embracing a number of corticioid, poroid, and hydnoid genera. The present study covers a new wood-inhabiting fungal species of Heteroradulum niveum sp.

Island size affects wood decomposition by changing decomposer distribution

open access: yesEcography, Volume 44, Issue 3, Page 456-468, March 2021., 2021
Island biogeography theory describes the relationship between island size, isolation and biodiversity, but it does not address the effects on ecosystem processes such as wood decomposition. Wood decomposition rates can be expected to increase with decomposer diversity, which increases with island size and decreases with increasing island isolation ...

New records of corticioid fungi in Turkey

open access: yesMycotaxon, 2011
A recent survey of wood-inhabiting Basidiomycota in Turkey has added 10 corticioids to the Turkish mycobiota; included are first records of the genera Boidinia and Leptosporomyces in the country. All collected species are described and their distribution in Turkey is summarized. Microscopical line-drawings and ecological notes are provided.

Long‐term effects of colonization–extinction dynamics of generalist versus specialist wood‐decaying fungi

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, Volume 109, Issue 1, Page 491-503, January 2021., 2021
The occupancy of sessile species is generated by dynamic rates of colonization and extinction. Studying the landscape‐scale metapopulation dynamics of wood‐decaying fungi in boreal forests, we demonstrate systematic decreases in colonization rate and increases in extinction rate with increasing species' degree of specialization.

New records of interesting corticioid Basidiomycota from Uruguay [PDF]

open access: yesCheck List, 2014
Twenty species of corticioid Basidiomycota (Cantharellales, Corticiales, Hymenochaetales, Polyporales, Russulales, Thelephorales) are reported for the first time from Uruguay, extending the known species of this group of fungi to 130 in the country.

Xenasmatellales ord. nov. and Xenasmatellaceae fam. nov. for Xenasmatella (Agaricomycetes, Basidiomycota)

open access: yesMycology, 2023
In the era of molecular phylogeny as dominant evidence in fungal taxonomy, the taxonomic framework of fungi adopted from morphological characteristics has been largely updated.

The Functional Role of Fungi and Bacteria in Sulfur Cycling During Kelp (Ecklonia Radiata) Degradation: Unconventional Use of PiCrust2. [PDF]

open access: yesEnviron Microbiol Rep
The microbial remineralization of Ecklonia radiata produces substantial amounts of climate‐relevant compounds, including dimethylsulfoniopropionate, carbon, sulphur and alkalinity. While bacterial metabolic pathways are well‐characterised and relatively predictable, fungal contributions remain underexplored due to the lack of metabolic predictive tools

Three new wood-inhabiting corticioid fungi from the Qinling Mountains, China [PDF]

open access: yesMycoKeys
Wood-inhabiting fungi are key decomposers in forest ecosystems, but the diversity of corticioid fungi in the Qinling Mountains remains insufficiently explored. During surveys of macrofungi in Zhashui County and Shangzhou District in the Qinling Mountains,

The Hidden Wood-Decaying Fungal Diversity: Rhizochaete from East Asia

open access: yesDiversity, 2021
Wood-decaying fungi play crucial roles as decomposers in forest ecosystems. In this study, two new corticioid fungi, Rhizochaete fissurata and R. grandinosa spp.
