The Agaricomycetidae is one of the most morphologically diverse clades of Basidiomycota that includes the well known Agaricales and Boletales, which are dominated by pileate-stipitate forms, and the more obscure Atheliales, which is a relatively small group of resupinate taxa. This study focused taxon sampling on resupinate forms that may be related to these groups, aimed at resolving the early...

ABSTRACT The Amazon rainforest is the largest tropical in world, with high biodiversity of organisms. Despite increasing knowledge about fungal diversity last few years, many taxa, including gasteroid clades, are still poorly known. Gasteroid fungi recognized by maturation basidiospores inside basidiomata and passive release spores. We conducted a detailed survey published data on species that ...

In this paper, nine species of bolete fungi belonging to genera Boletus, Leccinum, Suillus and Xerocomus are reported from Arasbaran (E. Azarbaijan Province, N.W. Iran).From identified species Boletus edulis, B. erythropus, B. fechtneri, B. fragrans and X. ferrugineus are reported from Arasbaran as new for Iran.B. pulverulentus, L. pseudoscabrum, S. collinitus and S. granulatus have already bee...

In recent years increasing attention has been given to the potential health effects of fungal exposure in indoor environments. We used large-scale sequencing of the fungal internal transcribed spacer region (ITS) of nuclear ribosomal DNA to describe the mycoflora of two office buildings over the four seasons. DNA sequencing was complemented by cultivation, ergosterol determination, and quantita...

The Agaricomycotina contains about one-third of the described species of Fungi, including mushrooms, jelly fungi and basidiomycetous yeasts. Recent phylogenetic analyses by P. Matheny and colleagues combining nuclear rRNA genes with the protein-coding genes rpb1, rpb2 and tef1 support the division of Agaricomycotina into Tremellomycetes, Dacrymycetes and Agaricomycetes. There is strong support ...
