  2. 1. Evolutionary genomics of symbiotic fungi

    Author : Balaji Rajashekar; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Protein family; Symbiosis; Paxillus involutus; Laccaria bicolor; Hydrophobin; Fungi; Ectomycorrhizae; Evolution; Comparative Genomics; Basidiomycetes;

    Abstract : Ectomycorrhizae is a mutualistic association between roots of woody plants and a diverse range of soil fungi. The fungi exchange soil derived mineral nutrients for photosynthetic sugars from the host plant. The mycorrhizal symbioses are commonly found in all forest ecosystems and have a major ecological and economical importance. READ MORE

  4. 2. Wood-inhabiting fungi of alder forests in north-central Scandinavia : 1, Aphyllophorales (Basidiomycetes). Taxonomy, ecology and distribution

    Author : Åke Strid; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Basidiesvampar; ekologisk botanik; Ecological Botany;

    Abstract : Wood-inhabiting fungi were collected on different trees in 99 loca-' lities of alder woods, dominated by Alnus incana or occasionally A. glutinosa, in N-C Sweden and C Norway. Most of the localities are situated near the east coast of Sweden where the prevailing land elevation creates conditions suitable for colonization by alder. READ MORE

  5. 3. Species Richness Patterns and Community Structure of Wood-Living Basidiomycetes (Agaricomycotina) in Nordic Spruce Forests

    Author : Thomas Appelqvist; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Wood-living basidiomycetes; species richness; lignin remnants; old-growth microhabitats; stand continuity; environmental continuity; community pattern; fungal guilds;

  6. 4. Succession of wood-inhabiting fungal communities : diversity and species interactions during the decomposition of Norway spruce

    Author : Elisabet Ottosson; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Dead wood constitutes an important substrate for biodiversity in boreal forests. As the wood decays, fungal communities develop and species associations are formed. Species interactions are thought to affect community development, but the mycelial dynamics within fungal communities are poorly understood. READ MORE

  7. 5. Biosynthetic and synthetic studies of the fungal metabolite galiellalactone

    Author : Martin H Johansson; Centrum för analys och syntes; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biotechnology; Bioteknik; Organisk kemi; Organic chemistry; enzyme; mycelium; intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction; Diels-Alderase; asymmetric synthesis; biosynthesis; total synthesis; STAT3 inhibition; galiellalactone; fungal metabolite;

    Abstract : Galiellalactone is a fungal metabolite found in the basidiomycetes Galiella rufa and the unidentified strain A111-95. It has been shown to possess promising activities as an inhibitor of the IL-6 mediated STAT3 signaling in HepG2 cells. READ MORE
