Intensive land expansion of commercial oil palm agricultural lands results in reducing the size of peat swamp forests, particularly in Southeast Asia. The effect of this land conversion on macrofungal biodiversity is, however, understudied. We quantified macrofungal biodiversity by identifying mushroom sporocarps throughout four different habitats; logged peat swamp forest, large-scale oil palm...

Macrofungi are high-value forest resources that have functionally significant roles in the ecosystem. The macrofungal community of three different vegetation compositions, i.e., Sal (Shorea robusta) Forest, Tropical Deciduous Riverine and Evergreen Forest Teghari Community were investigated. Systematic random sampling was made where 60 plots (10 x 10 m) laid all types (20 each). A total 102 mac...

HIGHLIGHTS Small preservation areas are very important to preserve macrofungi biodiversity. The Madre Monte Preservation reserve in the Colombian Andes has contributed at last 3 rare species, 19 new citations and 2 country. Change strategy creating small instead of large ones could be an step preserving macrofungi.

This taxonomic study is based on macrofungi collected Babadağ District (Denizli) in the period 2005-2006. As a result of field and laboratory studies, five new records are presented. These species are Leptopodia elastica, Entoloma incarnatofuscescens, Geastrum minimum, Hygrophorus speciosus and Russula sororia.

This review summarizes data on the biogeography and dispersal of bacteria, microfungi and selected protists, such as dinoflagellates, chrysophytes, testate amoebae, and ciliates. Furthermore, it introduces the restricted distribution and dispersal of mosses, ferns and macrofungi as arguments into the discussion on the postulated cosmopolitism and ubiquity of protists. Estimation of diversity an...

215 taxa have been identified from different localities of Yenice (Karabük) District between 2012-2014 years.As a result the field and laboratory studies, 32 belonging to 21 genera, 14 families Ascomycota, 183 107 44 families, Basidiomycota were determined. According present literature on macrofungi, two are new records for Turkish macrofungi. These Hygrocybe substrangulata (P.D. Orton) P.D. Or...

Mushrooms are generous source of nutritional, medicinal compounds, and industrial uses the mushrooms still need to be worked out for their important applications. have significant enzymatic machinery allowing application in different industries. Capabilities members encouraged researchers investigate further applications these macrofungi fields other than food pharmaceutical Specially, owing cu...
