In the framework of a research project as identification of macro-fungi of Kheyroud Educational and Experimental Forest (Faculty of Natural Resources, University of Tehran, Tehran, Iran), more than 470 specimens of various groups of macro-fungi were collected and identified. From identified samples about 200 specimens were belong to 46 agaric species, as follows: Agaricus silvaticus, Bovista pl...

Nusantara Bioscience 14: 47-52. are modified found in basidiocarp many agarics. However, data on their development function as well formation pure cultures mushrooms scarce. The aim present study was to characterize cytologi...

The Gloeophyllales is a recently described order of Agaricomycotina containing a morphologically diverse array of polypores (Gloeophyllum), agarics (Neolentinus, Heliocybe) and resupinate fungi (VelutiVeluticeps, Boreostereum, Chaetodermella), most of which have been demonstrated to produce a brownrot mode of wood decay and are found preferentially on coniferous substrates. Multiple phylogeneti...

The objective of this review is to provide a synthesis of speciation theory, of what is known about mechanisms of speciation in fungi and from this, what is expected, and of ideas on how speciation can be elucidated in more fungal systems. The emphasis is on process rather than pattern. Phylogeographic studies in some groups, such as the agarics, demonstrate predominantly allopatric speciation,...

Ipomoea batatas, Agaricus blazei and Smallanthus sonchifolius are known to favorably influence diabetes mellitus. To clarify their antidiabetic efficacy and hypoglycemic mechanisms, we treated streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats with daily oral feeding of powdered Ipomoea batatas (5 g kg(-1) d(-1)), Agaricus blazei (1 g kg(-1) d(-1)) or Smallanthus sonchifolius (4 g kg(-1) d(-1)) for 2 months....

McIlvainea 18 (1) 2009 2 MYCOLOGY IS is a booming and blooming fi eld of science, and mycologists are prolifi c writers. The result is that many fungal papers are published every year, and they range widely; recently there are biochemical studies of how a gene works in the development of a small dung denizen, inventories of the mycofl ora of a hemlock forest in Ontario, the description of new s...
