Green synthesis of silver nanoparticles using psychrotolerant strains of Tulasnella albida from South Orkney Islands (Antarctica) [PDF]
Nanoparticles are widely studied due to their possible uses in biological and technological systems. Four psychrotolerant strains of Tulasnella albida isolated from Antarctica were tested and compared in their ability to synthesize silver nanoparticles ...

Diversity of mycorrhizal Tulasnella associated with epiphytic and rupicolous orchids from the Brazilian Atlantic Forest, including four new species [PDF]
The genus Tulasnella often forms mycorrhizas with orchids and has worldwide distribution. Species of this genus are associated with a wide range of orchids, including endangered hosts.

Many orchids have an obligate relationship with Tulasnella mycorrhizal fungi for seed germination and support into adulthood. Despite the importance of Tulasnella as mycorrhizal partners, many species remain undescribed.

Functional Insights into the Roles of Hormones in the Dendrobium officinale-Tulasnella sp. Germinated Seed Symbiotic Association [PDF]
Dendrobium is one of the largest genera in the Orchidaceae, and D. officinale is used in traditional medicine, particularly in China. D. officinale seeds are minute and contain limited energy reserves, and colonization by a compatible fungus is essential

Is the Distribution of Two Rare Orchis Sister Species Limited by Their Main Mycobiont? [PDF]
As orchids rely on their mycorrhizal fungi for nutrient supply, their spatial range is dependent on the distribution of orchid mycorrhizal (OM) fungi. We addressed possible correlations between mycorrhizal specificity and the geographic distribution of ...

This study is the first report on mycosynthesis of silver nanoparticles (NPs) using psychrotrophic Antarctic filamentous fungi, and the first report regarding Tulasnella (Basidiomycota). In this work, the ability to synthesize silver NPs from cell free filtrates of strains of Tulasnella albida isolated from Antarctica was assessed. All fungal filtrates

Orchids highly depend on mycorrhizae for survival and growth. Traditionally, to obtain orchid mycorrhizal fungi (OMFs) for plant growth, fungi have been isolated from the roots of mature wild plants; however, fungal partners engaged may change through ...

Background Orchids maintain a symbiotic relationship with mycorrhizal fungi in the lifecycle. Previous reports indicated that diverse mycobionts may have different roles during orchid growth and development.
