The book "Forest Fungi" explores sustainable option aspects of forest fungal research, from the selection of hosting plants, isolation, identification, fermentation, identification of secondary metabolites, omics-tools for better understanding the plant–fungus Interactions. Forests are the world’s greatest repository of terrestrial biomass, soil ca...
Este libro es imprescindible para reconocer las especies de hongos comestibles silvestres que habitan en la región fitogeográfica de los bosques andino-patagónicos. La recolección y consumo de hongos silvestres se remonta a la prehistoria, incluyendo a pueblos originarios de la Argentina y Chile, ya que son alimentos bajos en grasas, con salto cont...
Fistulina antarctica and Ramaria patagonica are wild edible fungi from Patagonia, which produce mushrooms that have been consumed since ancient times by those in local communities. Both species possess high protein and low fat contents and other bioactive compounds with remarkable antioxidant activity. Drying is a widely and commonly practiced pres...
Grifola is a genus of poroid wood–rotting fungi that produces compound, multipileate basidiomes that are edible. We analyzed the phylogenetic and taxonomic diversity of Grifola on the basis of phylogenetic analysis of internal transcripter space (ITS) and β–tubulin (TUBB) DNA sequences, comparison of morphological features and host relationships. R...
Nothofagus forests of the Andean Patagonian region are home to numerous wild edible mushroom (WEM) species with interesting organoleptic characteristics, although many of them have unknown nutritional and nutraceutical profiles. The proximal composition, fatty and organic acids, soluble sugars, phenolic compounds, ergosterol, as well as antioxidant...
This work assessed the mycelial growth rate (Kr) and basidiome production of two
commercial strains of shiitake mushroom Lentinula edodes (B05 and M3790) in formulations composed of lignocellulosic residues from agricultural and agroindustrial activities in Northern Andean Patagonia and woody materials from invasive plants. The formulations consist...
Mycelium composites consist of particulate lignocellulosic materials, e.g., sawdust from the timber industry structured as a solid matrix resulting from the mycelial growth. Many protocols have been proposed based on different strains and substrates. However, the influence of intrinsic elements, such as the structure of the hyphal system on the mai...
The effects of a naturally occurring Patagonian strain of the white-rot fungus Pleurotus ostreatus on Araucaria araucana wood lignans was evaluated. Lignans of colonized and non-colonized wood shavings and the activity of fungal ligninolytic enzymes were studied. Lignans were identified using gas chromatography with a mass spectrometry detector. On...
This work evaluated mycelial growth rate (Kr) and fruiting of two Pleurotus ostreatus commercial strains (A01, 129) on formulations composed of lignocellulosic residues from farming and agroindustry of Northern Patagonian Andes, and of woody materials from invasive plants. Rosehip fluffs (RF), rosehip woodchips (RWC), southern beech wood shavings (...
The basidiomes production of two strains of Pleurotus ostreatus (one native from Patagonia, Argentina, isolated from the conifer Araucaria araucana and the other one a commercial strain) grown in different agricultural and forestry wastes was studied. The ability of the native strain generates interest to know its degradative capabilities for its u...
Background:
Pleurotus spp. are fungi characterized by their ability to biologically degrade lignocellulosic materials. In Argentina, 6 wild Pleurotus species are known, being P. pulmonarius and P. ostreatus the ones with the greatest bio technological interest.
Objective:
To determine the phylogenetic relationships of Pleurotus strains from Patag...
Este libro tiene como finalidad introducir al lector en la biología de los hongos, la diversidad de las especies y en las aplicaciones tecnológicas en la industria, en especial del hongo comestible Flammulina velutipes. Este es un tipo de hongo muy popular en Asia, cultivado y consumido en el resto del mundo pero que aún no ha sido desarrollado en...
Identificación del oídio causado por Erysiphe trifoliorum (Wallr.) U. Braun en Melilotus officinalis. Identification of the powdery mildew caused by Erysiphe trifoliorum (Wallr.) U. Braun on Melilotus officinalis.
Molecular identification of powdery mildews
is challenging due to the impossibility of
processing sterile mycelium or cultures. For this
reason, inexpensive and fast methods based on conidial germination are still a very reliable alternative
for identifications at the species level. Melilotus
officinalis is a very extended forage crop in the
centra...
Background:
Two-phase olive-mill wastes (or "alperujo") exhibit highly phytotoxic properties, mainly due to phenols. A valuable option for alperujo is its agricultural use, provided that no phytotoxic effects occur.
Aims:
The present investigation was aimed at evaluating the efficacy of two strains of the lignin-degrading fungus Flammulina velut...
Rugolo Maximiliano; Francisco Kuhar. 2014. " Brief notes on three gaste-roid fungi in the Andean Patagonia ". Lilloa 51 (1). In reviewing the entire collection of the ge-nus Geastrum of the BAFC herbarium, two samples were found containing unidentified specimens from Patagonia, one from Los Alerces National Park (Argentina, Chubut) and the other on...
