Screening of Antibacterial and Antifungal Activities of Basidiomycetes Extracts
Background. Basidiomycetes have high biosynthetic capabilities. Their metabolites are capable of exhibiting antimicrobial properties, thereby being promising molecules for use in medicine or for further chemical transformation.

Agaricales Mushroom Lignin Peroxidase: From Structure–Function to Degradative Capabilities
Lignin biodegradation has been extensively studied in white-rot fungi, which largely belong to order Polyporales. Among the enzymes that wood-rotting polypores secrete, lignin peroxidases (LiPs) have been labeled as the most efficient.

Polypores and genus concepts in Phanerochaetaceae (Polyporales, Basidiomycota) [PDF]
We explored whether DNA-phylogeny-based and morphology-based genus concepts can be reconciled in the basidiomycete family Phanerochaetaceae. Our results show that macromorphology of fruiting bodies and hymenophore construction do not reflect monophyletic groups.

Prevalence of Red List DD Species Limits the Application of the EDGE Approach for Fungi
ABSTRACT Despite their importance, fungi remain underrepresented in global conservation priorities and largely absent from indicators established for monitoring progress within the Global Biodiversity Framework. One indicator, the Evolutionarily Distinct and Globally Endangered (EDGE) Index, tracks the conservation status of evolutionarily distinct ...

Diversity of ESI-MS Based Phosphatidylcholine Profiles in Basidiomycetes
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.

Xylophilous Agaricomycetes (Basidiomycota) of the Brazilian Cerrado [PDF]
An updated checklist of xylophilous Agaricomycetes from the Brazilian Cerrado showed 127 species, 22 families and nine orders (Agaricales, Atheliales, Auriculariales, Corticiales, Gloeophyllales, Hymenochaetales, Polyporales, Russulales, and ...

A revised genus-level classification forCerrenaceae(Polyporales, Agaricomycetes)
Cerrenaceaeis a small family of polypores and hydnoid fungi in the orderPolyporales(Basidiomycota). The family consists of white-rot fungi, some of which are serious tree pathogens. Combining morphological evidence with a phylogenetic dataset of six genetic markers, we revise generic concepts in the family and propose a seven-genus classification ...

Gradients of Aliveness and Engineering: A Taxonomy of Fungal Engineered Living Materials
This paper explores the potential of fungal engineered living materials (ELMs), examining fungal biology and growth mechanisms, which underpin their development. It presents a classification framework based on aliveness, scaffold composition, and engineering degree. Unique properties such as self‐healing, biosensing, and bioremediation are highlighted,

The genus Fomitopsis (Polyporales, Basidiomycota) reconsidered
Based on seven- and three-gene datasets, we discuss four alternative approaches for a reclassification of Fomitopsidaceae (Polyporales, Basidiomycota). After taking into account morphological diversity in the family, we argue in favour of distinguishing three genera only, viz. Anthoporia, Antrodia andFomitopsis.
