A review paper. Fungi are eukaryotes that play essential roles in ecosystems. Among fungi, Basidiomycota is one of the major phyla with more than 40,000 described species. We review species diversity of Basidiomycota from five groups with different lifestyles or habitats: saprobic in grass/forest litter, wood-decaying, yeast-like, ectomycorrhizal, and plant parasitic. Case studies of Agaricus, Cantharellus, Ganoderma, Gyroporus, Russula, Tricholoma, and groups of lichenicolous yeast-like fungi, … Read more...

Baldrian P., Větrovský T., Lepinay C. & Kohout P. (2022): High‑throughput sequencing view on the magnitude of global fungal diversity - Fungal Diversity, 114: 539–547

High-throughput DNA sequencing has dramatically transformed several areas of biodiversity research including mycology. Despite limitations, high-throughput sequencing is nowadays a predominant method to characterize the alpha and beta diversity of fungal communities. Across the papers utilizing high-throughput sequencing approaches to study natural habitats in terrestrial ecosystems worldwide, > 200 studies published until 2019 have generated over 250 million sequences of the primary mycological … Read more...

A review paper. A comprehensive account of fungal classification from freshwater habitats is outlined and discussed in the present review based on literature of biodiversity studies and recent morpho-phylogenetic analyses. A total of 3,870 freshwater fungal species are listed with additional details on the isolation source, habitat, geographical distribution, and molecular data. The Ascomycota (2,968 species, 1,018 genera) dominated the freshwater fungal taxa wherein Sordariomycetes (823 species, … Read more...

Alonso-García M., Pino-Bodas R. & Villarreal A.J.C. (2022): Co-dispersal of symbionts in the lichen Cladonia stellaris inferred from genomic data - Fungal Ecology, 60: 101165 [9 p.]

We tested the congruence in dispersal patterns of the two main symbionts of the lichen Cladonia stellaris using genotyping-by-sequencing data. Based on 122 samples from eastern Canada, we recovered more than 21000 loci from the photobiont of C. stellaris. We described the population structure and estimate genetic diversity of the photobiont and identified the factors that contribute to explain genetic variation in both lichen partners. We also determined the identity of the dominant photobiont … Read more...

Evdokimov G., Afonina O., Konoreva L., Obabko R., Mamontov Yu., Chesnokov S., Frolov I.A. & Babiy U.V. (2022): Flora of lichens, mosses and liverworts of Wrangel Island: New records - Polish Polar Research, 43(2): 145–163

New records to lichen flora and bryoflora of Wrangel Island are presented. The additions to the island cryptogam flora include 32 lichens and one lichenicolous fungus, 26 mosses and eleven liverwort species. Acarospora sinopica, Alectoria gowardii, Austroplaca sibirica, Calogaya bryochrysion, Hymenelia ceracea, Porpidia ochrolemma, and Sagiolechia protuberans are new to the island and to the Russian Far East. Two lichen species (Lecidea lithophila and Rinodina terrestris), as well as two … Read more...

Srimani S., Schmidt C.X., Gómez-Serranillos M.P., Oster H. & Divakar P.K. (2022): Modulation of cellular circadian rhythms by secondary metabolites of lichens - Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 16: 907308 [15 p.]

Background: Most mammalian cells harbor molecular circadian clocks that synchronize physiological functions with the 24-h day-night cycle. Disruption of circadian rhythms, through genetic or environmental changes, promotes the development of disorders like obesity, cardiovascular diseases, and cancer. At the cellular level, circadian, mitotic, and redox cycles are functionally coupled. Evernic (EA) and usnic acid (UA), two lichen secondary metabolites, show various pharmacological activities … Read more...

Keuler R., Jensen J., Barcena-Peña A., Grewe F., Lumbsch H.T., Huang J.-P. & Leavitt S.D. (2022): Interpreting phylogenetic conflict: Hybridization in the most speciose genus of lichen-forming fungi - Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, 174: 107543 [11 p.]

While advances in sequencing technologies have been invaluable for understanding evolutionary relationships, increasingly large genomic data sets may result in conflicting evolutionary signals that are often caused by biological processes, including hybridization. Hybridization has been detected in a variety of organisms, influencing evolutionary processes such as generating reproductive barriers and mixing standing genetic variation. Here, we investigate the potential role of hybridization in the … Read more...

Xiao B., Bowker M.A. , Zhao Y., Chamizo S. & Issa O.M. (2022): Biocrusts: Engineers and architects of surface soil properties, functions, and processes in dryland ecosystems - Geoderma, 424: 116015 [5 p.]

Biocrusts are photosynthetic biotic communities of cryptogams and microbes that aggregate minerals at the soil surface in many ecosystems. Due to their high tolerance to harsh environments, biocrusts are present in a wide range of habitats, but are especially representative ground covers in regions with restricted vegetation growth, such as drylands (hyperarid, arid, semiarid, and dry subhumid regions) where water is a limiting factor, or high latitude or altitude regions where cold is a … Read more...

Lu Y., Tao Y., Yin B., Li Y., Tucker C., Zhou X. & Zhang Y. (2022): Nitrogen deposition stimulated winter nitrous oxide emissions from bare sand more than biological soil crusts in cold desert ecosystem - Science of the Total Environment, 841: 156779 [10 p.]

Dryland ecosystems are often nitrogen-limited, and small nitrogen inputs may produce large responses to dryland ecological processes, such as gaseous nitrogen emission. The effect of increased anthropogenic nitrogen deposition on N2O and NO emissions in desert ecosystems is unclear, especially in non-growing seasons when the surface is covered with snow. In this study, nitrogen applications were performed on biological soil crusts (lichen crust and moss crust, bare sand for control) in the Gurbantunggut … Read more...

Dembitsky V.M. (2022): Microbiological aspects of unique, rare, and unusual fatty acids derived from natural amides and their pharmacological profile - Microbiology Research, 13: 377–417

In the proposed review, the pharmacological profile of unique, rare, and unusual fatty acids derived from natural amides is considered. These amides are produced by various microor- ganisms, lichens, and fungi. The biological activity of some natural fatty acid amides has been de- termined by their isolation from natural sources, but the biological activity of fatty acids has not been practically studied. According to QSAR data, the biological activity of fatty acids is shown, which demonstrated … Read more...
