News is provided on the launch of a World Fungus Day, acceptance of the term Funga as an equivalent to Fauna and Flora by the IUCN Species Survival Commission, new arrangements and dates for IMC12 now to be held in Maastricht in July 2024, and revised arrangements for the publication of p...
000 different species of fungi exist. When you see a light-colored splat on a tree or rock in the woods, it is probably a lichen, which is a fungus and an alga living in a symbiotic relationship, benefiting each other. Fungi are neither plants nor animals; they are different enough to...
When this is not feasible, insects, mites, and tree tissue should be placed in sterile vials, transported to the laboratory in ice-filled coolers, and refrigerated until they are processed. Placing small pine twigs and/or moist paper in collection vials may increase survival of insects during ...
Of 242 endophytic fungi isolated from surface-sterilized yew tree twig segments, only 2 produced taxol in a defined liquid medium (Somjaipeng et al., 2015), which was confirmed by HPLC and LC-MS/MS analyses. They were identified by sequencing of ITS1/ITS2 (internal transcribed spacer) regio...
At first glimpse, the crystal brain fungus can cause alarm and bewilderment, but fear not. We reveal why you can relax if you spot this squishy, gloopy garden guest Common Types Of Tree Fungus If you see a mushroom fungus that grows on trees, be aware that the tree can be unstable and...
The relationship between entomopathogenic fungi and their insect hosts is a classic example of the co-evolutionary arms race between pathogen and target host. The present review describes the entomopathogenic potential of Chytridiomycota and Blastocladio
(symbiotic relationship between afungusand an alga), the trueslime molds(Myxomycetes), and the water molds (Oomycetes). The true fungi are currently divided into eight majorlineages:Chytridiomycota,Neocallimastigomycota,Blastocladiomycota, Zoopagomycota, Mucoromycota,Glomeromycota,Ascomycota, and...

Because EcM fungi live in a symbiotic relationship with trees and in close contact with bacteria and archaea, it is difficult to distinguish between the weathering effects of the fungus, host tree and other micro-organisms. Here, we quantified mineral weathering by the fungus Paxillus involutus, ...
