DNA barcode analyses improve accuracy in fungal species distribution models
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 ...

Island size affects wood decomposition by changing decomposer distribution
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
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.

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]
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.

The Functional Role of Fungi and Bacteria in Sulfur Cycling During Kelp (Ecklonia Radiata) Degradation: Unconventional Use of PiCrust2. [PDF]
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]
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
Wood-decaying fungi play crucial roles as decomposers in forest ecosystems. In this study, two new corticioid fungi, Rhizochaete fissurata and R. grandinosa spp.
