AI Article Synopsis
- Researchers conducted a survey of mushroom diversity in Korea from 2011 to 2014, discovering a new species called Xylaria ripicola and a previously unrecorded species, Xylaria tentaculata.
- The study confirmed the classification of X. ripicola through phylogenetic analysis based on ribosomal DNA sequences and RNA polymerase II subunit sequences.
- The research describes the new species X. ripicola in detail, including its habitat in a natural beach setting and its macroscopic and microscopic characteristics.
Article Abstract
During a Korean mushroom diversity survey from 2011 to 2014, we found one new Xylaria species (X. ripicola sp. nov.) and one Xylaria species that had not been previously observed in Korea (X. tentaculata). To confirm the phylogenetic placement of the new species, we conducted a phylogenetic investigation based on internal transcribed spacer regions of ribosomal DNA sequences. Additionally, the new species, X. ripicola, was subsequently analyzed for RNA polymerase II subunit sequences. We also evaluated the macroscopic and microscopic features of this species. Herein, X. ripicola is described as a new species that was collected from a natural beach habitat and X. tentaculata is formally reported as newly found in Korea.
