Basidiocarps of species of Armillaria, Russula, Lactarius and  Agaricus with fungal infection were collected from different regions of Iran. Portions of infected carpophores, were taken and cultured on PDA, PCA and MEA. Fungicolous isolates were identified on the basis of morphological characters such as: color and shape of colony, morphology and branching of conidiophores, manner of proliferat...

UNLABELLED PREMISE OF THE STUDY Sequestrate basidiomycete fungi (e.g. "gasteromycetes") have foregone ballistospory and evolved alternative, often elaborate mechanisms of basidiospore dispersal with highly altered basidioma morphology. Sequestrate fungi have independently evolved in numerous Agaricomycete lineages, confounding taxonomic arrangements of these fungi for decades. Understanding ...
