The Specific and Total CO Emission Activity of Wood-Decaying Fungi and Their Response to Increases in Temperature.

The CO emission activity of xylotrophic fungi responding to an increase in temperature in the range of 10-30 °C with pure dikaryotic cultures of s. str., , , , and was analyzed.

Notes on Medicinal Polypore Species from the Genus Daedaleopsis (Agaricomycetes), Distributed in the Asian Part of Russia.

We present a study on the medicinal value, taxonomy, and ecology of the polypore mushrooms Daedaleopsis confragosa and D. tricolor isolated from the Asian part of Russia (the Urals, Siberia, and the Far East). The phylogenetic analysis of recombinant DNA internal transcribed spacer sequences data has shown that D.

Genetic Variability of the Medicinal Tinder Bracket Polypore, Fomes fomentarius (Agaricomycetes), from the Asian Part of Russia.

We analyzed intraspecies genetic variability of the medicinal tinder bracket polypore, Fomes fomentarius, from the Asian part of Russia, including the Ural, Altai, Western Sayan, and Baikal regions. We used nuclear ribosomal DNA internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequence data as a standard marker for fungal DNA barcoding. In the Asian part of Russia, lineage A occurs as sublineage A2, which differs from sublineage A1 by a single nucleotide insertion at ITS2.
