Extractions: Share Blog Cite Print Email Bookmark ScienceDaily (Mar. 6, 2008) See also: These prospects stem from the genome analysis of the symbiotic fungus Laccaria bicolor, generated by the U.S. Department of Energy Joint Genome Institute (DOE JGI) and collaborators from INRA, the National Institute for Agricultural Research in Nancy, France, and published March 6 in the journal Nature. This international team effort also involved contributions from 16 institutions, including Oak Ridge National Laboratory; Ghent University, Belgium; Lund University, Sweden; Goettingen University, Germany; CNRS-Aix-Marseille University, France; Nancy University, France; and the University of Alabama, Huntsville. In a manner of speaking, trees are the lungs of the earth. They draw CO from the atmosphere and convert it into sugars, which then become a source of energy. In the process they breathe O back into the atmosphere. This "green" production of biomass trees account for 90% of the planet's land-based biomass is a major influence on the health of our planet. Trees' ability to generate large amounts of biomass or store carbon is underpinned by their interactions with soil microbes known as mycorrhizal fungi, which excel at procuring necessary, but scarce, nutrients such as phosphate and nitrogen. Most of these nutrients are transferred to the growing tree. When Laccaria bicolor establishes a partnership with plant roots, a mycorrhizal root is created. The fungus within the root is protected from competition with other soil microbes and gains preferential access to carbohydrates within the plant. Thus, the mutualistic relationship is established.

Extractions: if(popupBlocker)alert('Warning: To view the abstracts database, you should not use a pop-up blocker on this site') Main Menu Site Search Abstracts Database The Descriptions of Fungi and Bacteria are designed for use by plant pathologists and veterinary and medical mycologists. They provide integrated information to allow identification / confirmation of identity of significant species, along with related information on pathology or other economic significance. The Descriptions of Fungi and Bacteria were initiated in 1964, and more than 1600 sheets have been issued, each devoted to a single species. Descriptions of Fungi and Bacteria are produced by CABI Bioscience. Each sheet is written by an authority on that particular organism. Because of this expert authorship Descriptions of Fungi and Bacteria are widely regarded as official definitions of the species concerned. A large proportion of the illustrations and photos are unique to DFB and a substantial number of species are not adequately illustrated elsewhere. Username: Password:

http://www.ubcbotanicalgarden.org/potd/fungi_and_slime_molds/

Extractions: The series for UBC Research Week continues. Today's write-up and photos are courtesy of Toko Mori. Toko writes: My name is Toko Mori, a first-year graduate student in the Berbee Lab at the University of British Columbia. I study chytrid fungi, microscopic fungi that mainly live in freshwater. I especially focus on the local chytrids that parasitize freshwater microscopic algae. My long-term research goal is to create a tree of life of chytrids that parasitize algae and to see if there is any coevolutionary relationship between the species of parasitic chytrids and those of their host algae. I collected this chytrid on an alga, Vaucheria , from Burnaby Lake (Burnaby, BC) in August 2007. I have cultured it on agar and also co-cultured it with Vaucheria since then. Since it seems that this is the first entry of chytrids in the Botany Photo of the Day, let me explain what they are. Chytrids are fungi, although they look quite different from mushrooms and molds, which we often think of as fungi. There are about one thousand species of chytrids which form the Phylum Chytridiomycota . Being the only group of fungi which reproduce by motile cells called zoospores (shown in picture 4), chytrids are considered to have diverged from the other fungi very early in their evolutionary history. Having motile spores gives them reproductive advantage in water. However, this is a double-edged sword; chytrids are unable to reproduce without moisture and thus bound to aquatic habitats.

http://www.botanical.com/botanical/mgmh/f/fungi-37.html

Extractions: Fungi are those plants which are colourless; they have no green chlorophyll within them, and it is this green substance which enables the higher plants to build up, under the influence of sunlight, the starches and sugars which ultimately form our food. Having no chlorophyll, fungi cannot use the energy of the sun and must therefore adopt another method of life. They either live as parasites on other living plants or animals, or they live on decaying matter. In either case they derive their energy by breaking up highly complex substances and, when these are broken up in the living plant, the living plant suffers. Many Fungi, such as the bacteria, are microscopic; others form visible growths, from moulds and mildews to the familiar mushroom and toadstools they in crease in size and conspicuousness. Fungi differ from flowering plants in theirchemical influence upon the air. They absorb oxygen and exhale carbonic acid, performing the same office in this respect as animals, which they most resemble in chemical composition. The odours they emit in decay are more like putrescent animal than vegetable matter. Some species, e.g., the Stinkhorns, emit a most intolerably offensive stench; others, on the contrary, are very agreeable to the smell and some 'toadstools' acquire in drying a fine aroma. They are quite as variable to the taste. Numerically, Fungi rank next to flowering plants and in many portions of the globe far exceed them. In Great Britain, indeed, we have just over 5,000 species of Fungi, which number exceeds that of our flowering plants, ferns, mosses, lichens and algae all added together.

Extractions: Soils Home Soil Quality SQ Concepts Soil Organic Matter ... Site Map Search Soil Quality All Soils All NRCS Sites for By Elaine R. Ingham THE LIVING SOIL: FUNGI Fungi are microscopic cells that usually grow as long threads or strands called hyphae, which push their way between soil particles, roots, and rocks. Hyphae are usually only several thousandths of an inch (a few micrometers) in diameter. A single hyphae can span in length from a few cells to many yards. A few fungi, such as yeast, are single cells. Hyphae sometimes group into masses called mycelium or thick, cord-like rhizomorphs that look like roots. Fungal fruiting structures (mushrooms) are made of hyphal strands, spores, and some special structures like gills on which spores form. (See figure) A single individual fungus can include many fruiting bodies scattered across an area as large as a baseball diamond. Fungi perform important services related to water dynamics, nutrient cycling, and disease suppression. Along with bacteria, fungi are important as decomposers in the soil food web. They convert hard-to-digest organic material into forms that other organisms can use. Fungal hyphae physically bind soil particles together, creating stable aggregates that help increase water infiltration and soil water holding capacity.

Extractions: Science fair project ideas using mushrooms and fungi Mushroom growing offers endless possibilities for science projects and experiments. Below I offer a few ideas, and there are links at the bottom to my pages offering the peroxide-in-mushroom-growing manual, Growing Mushrooms the Easy Way, Home Mushroom Cultivation with Hydrogen Peroxide Basics of Mushroom growing : Read this for an overview of the process. Here are some projects you can do, starting with a mushroom kit (or a pair of kits, one for a control). A mushroom kit is ready to start forming mushrooms when you receive it. But remember to plan ahead and give yourself enough time for the mushrooms to growthis usually takes two to three weeks. (Sorry, I am no longer selling kitssee my Links page for other suppliers). With a kit, you can test things like: What happens to mushrooms grown with no light, or too much light? No moisture, or too much moisture? No fresh air? What color of light has the most positive effect on mushroom formation?
