Journal ArticleDOI
Variation in forest soil fungal diversity along a latitudinal gradient
Lingling Shi,Lingling Shi,Peter E. Mortimer,Peter E. Mortimer,J. W. Ferry Slik,Xiaoming Zou,Xiaoming Zou,Jianchu Xu,Jianchu Xu,Wenting Feng,Lu Qiao,Lu Qiao +11 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that soil fungal communities are strongly dependent on vegetation type, with fungal diversity displaying an inverse relationship to plant diversity.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: A selection of the most popular and highly sought after edible mushrooms from Greater Mekong Subregion: Astraeus hygrometricus, Boletus edulis, Morchella conica, Ophiocordyceps sinensis, Phlebopus portentosus, Pleurotus giganteus, Termitomyces eurhizus, Thelephora ganbajun, Tricholoma matsuake, and Tuber indicum in terms of value, ecology and conservation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Large-scale phylogenetic analyses reveal multiple gains of actinorhizal nitrogen-fixing symbioses in angiosperms associated with climate change.
Hong-Lei Li,Wei Wang,Peter E. Mortimer,Rui-Qi Li,De-Zhu Li,Kevin D. Hyde,Kevin D. Hyde,Kevin D. Hyde,Jianchu Xu,Jianchu Xu,Douglas E. Soltis,Zhi-Duan Chen +11 more
TL;DR: A hypothesis is put forward that multiple gains of actinorhizal nitrogen-fixing symbioses in angiosperms may have been associated with increased global temperatures and high levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide during these two time periods, as well as the availability of open habitats with high light conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, a system for categorizing mushroom species and assigning a final edibility status was proposed, using case reports from 99 countries, accessing 9,783 case reports, from over 1,100 sources.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of endophytic fungi from leaves of Pandanaceae based on their morphotypes and DNA sequence data from southern Thailand.
Saowaluck Tibpromma,Saowaluck Tibpromma,Kevin D. Hyde,Kevin D. Hyde,Jayarama D. Bhat,Peter E. Mortimer,Jianchu Xu,Itthayakorn Promputtha,Mingkwan Doilom,Mingkwan Doilom,Jun-Bo Yang,Alvin M. C. Tang,Samantha C. Karunarathna,Samantha C. Karunarathna +13 more
TL;DR: The authors established the taxonomic status of endophytic fungi associated with leaves of Pandanaceae collected from southern Thailand, identifying both ascomycete and basidiomycete species, including one new genus, seven new species and nine known species.
