With only three published reports, the genus (Boletales, Gomphidiaceae) is poorly studied in Pakistan. During recent sampling events in Khyber Pakhtunkhawa province, Pakistan, several collections of were made, representing undescribed taxa. Based on morphological and molecular data, two new species are described: and . We present a description and illustrations for both taxa. A molecular phylogenetic reconstruction, based on the internal transcribed spacer (ITS1-5.8S-ITS2) barcode region, shows that and are placed in two different subgenera of Chroogomphus (subg. Chroogomphus and subg. Siccigomphus, respectively).

The earthball , an ectomycorrhizal basidiomycete belonging to the Sclerodermataceae family, serves as a significant mutualistic tree symbiont globally. Originally, two genetically sequenced strains of this genus were obtained from fruiting bodies collected under chestnut trees (). These strains were utilized to establish ectomycorrhizal roots of chestnut seedlings.

To elucidate the biological mechanisms driving the growth of various pumpkin varieties to different sizes under identical management conditions while in the same field, the soil microbial community structures in the rhizospheres of giant-pumpkin (GP) and small-pumpkin (SP) varieties were analyzed. The results revealed that a significantly higher abundance of bacterial communities could be detected in the rhizospheres of the giant pumpkin varieties, such as Gemmatimonadota, , , , , , and , than in those of the small-sized pumpkins. Additionally, , , , and were unique dominant soil bacteria genera in the rhizospheres of the giant pumpkins.

Article Synopsis
- The text discusses a new species of mushroom from the Boletales order, found in temperate forests, specifically at Marys Peak in Oregon, which is unique for being hypogeous (growing underground) unlike other related species.
- This species has distinctive features, such as a white peridium that turns pink to purple when bruised and a gleba that changes color from pale yellow to purple as it matures.
- Molecular analysis confirms this mushroom’s classification within a specific group, indicating a unique evolutionary development in the Boletales, demonstrating an independent origin for its underground growth and a shift to its current host environment.
