Fomitopsidaceae
The Fomitopsidaceae are a family (biology), family of fungi in the order Polyporales. Most species are parasitic on woody plants, and tend to cause Wood-decay fungus#Brown rot, brown rots. The name comes from ''Fomitopsis'' (meaning "looking like Fomes") + ''-aceae'' (a suffix used to form taxonomic family names). Genera In a proposed family-level classification of the Polyporales based on molecular phylogenetics, Alfredo Justo and colleagues accept 14 genera in the Fomitopsidaceae: ''Anthoporia'', ''Antrodia'', ''Buglossoporus'', ''Cartilosoma'', ''Daedalea'', ''Fomitopsis'', ''Fragifomes'', ''Melanoporia'', ''Neolentiporus'', ''Niveoporofomes'', ''Rhodofomes'', ''Rhodofomitopsis'', ''Rubellofomes'', and ''Ungulidaedalea''.

Polyporales
The Polyporales are an order (biology), order of about 1,800 species of fungi in the division (mycology), division Basidiomycota. The order includes some (but not all) polypores as well as many corticioid fungi and a few agarics (mainly in the genus ''Lentinus''). Many species within the order are saprotrophic, most of them wood-decay fungus, wood-rotters. Some genera, such as ''Ganoderma'' and ''Fomes'', contain species that attack living tissues and then continue to degrade the wood of their dead hosts. Those of economic importance include several important plant pathology, pathogens of trees and a few species that cause damage by rotting structural timber. Some of the Polyporales are commercially Fungiculture, cultivated and marketed for use as food items or in traditional Chinese medicine. Taxonomy History The order was originally proposed in 1926 by Swiss mycologist Ernst Albert Gäumann to accommodate species within the phylum Basidiomycota producing basidiocarps (fruit bod ...

Parmastomyces
''Parmastomyces'' is a genus of fungi in the family Fomitopsidaceae. The genus was circumscribed by Czech mycologists František Kotlaba and Zdenek Pouzar in 1964, with ''Tyromyces kravtzevianus'' Bondartzev & Parm. as the type species. ''Parmastomyces'' species cause a brown rot. The genus has a monomitic hyphal system. The genus name of ''Parmastomyces'' is in honour of Erast Parmasto (1928–2012), who was an Estonian mycologist, bio-scientist and botanist and onetime director of the Estonian Institute of Zoology and Botany. The genus was circumscribed by Paul Claude Silva in Taxon In biology, a taxon (back-formation from ''taxonomy''; : taxa) is a group of one or more populations of an organism or organisms seen by taxonomists to form a unit. Although neither is required, a taxon is usually known by a particular name and ... vol.8 on page 63 in 1959.

Auriporia
''Auriporia'' is a small genus of four species of poroid fungi in the family Fomitopsidaceae. Taxonomy The genus was circumscribed by Norwegian mycologist Leif Ryvarden in 1973, with what was then known as ''Poria aurea'' as the type species. Although the genus is typically classified in the family Fomitopsidaceae, a recent (2017) multi-gene phylogenetic analysis placed ''Auriporia'' outside of Antrodia clade, and could not assign the genus to any existing family in the Polyporales. Description ''Auriporia'' are characterized by crust-like fruit bodies with a yellowish pore surface that grow on dead wood. They have a monomitic hyphal system with generative hyphae that are clamped, and thin to thick-walled. The cystidia are smooth with short side branches or protuberances, and are typically incrusted at the apex. The spores produced are hyaline (translucent), oblong, and ellipsoid An ellipsoid is a surface that can be obtained from a sphere by deforming it by means of dire ...

Neolentiporus
''Neolentiporus'' is a fungal genus in the family Fomitopsidaceae. It contains '' Neolentiporus squamosellus'' and the type species '' N. maculatissimus''. The genus was circumscribed by mycologist Mario Rajchenberg in 1995. Description ''Neolentiporus'' is characterized by medium to large fruit bodies that have stipes and a poroid hymenium on the cap underside. The caps are circular to fan-shaped with a scaly surface, and have an off-centre or lateral stipe that sometimes is reduced to a short, robust umbo. The hyphal system is dimitic with clamped, irregularly thick-walled generative hyphae that do not react with cresyl-blue stain. The skeletal hyphae are unbranched, thick-walled, and are strongly metachromatic in cresyl-blue. Spores are cylindrical, hyaline A hyaline substance is one with a glassy appearance. The word is derived from , and . Histopathology Hyaline cartilage is named after its glassy appearance on fresh gross pathology. On light microscopy of H ...

Ischnoderma
''Ischnoderma'' is a genus of polypore fungi. Species in the genus have dark brown and tomentose fruit bodies that become darker brown to black and smooth when mature. The genus, widespread in temperate regions, contains an estimated 10 species. Taxonomy ''Ischnoderma'' was circumscribed by Finnish mycologist Petter Adolf Karsten in 1879. Although ''Ischnoderma'' has traditionally been classified in the family Fomitopsidaceae, Phylogenetic studies have demonstrated its isolated phylogenetic position in the Polyporales. Justo and colleagues suggest that ''Ischnoderma'' would be better placed as the type genus of Ischnodermataceae, a family originally proposed by Walter Jülich in 1981. The generic name ''Ischnoderma'' combines the Ancient Greek words ("dry") and ("skin"). Chemistry The type species, '' I. resinosum'', is used in mushroom dyeing to produce various shades of brown. It has been shown to efficiently decolorize several structurally different synthetic dyes: ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Gilbertsonia
''Gilbertsonia'' is a fungal genus in the family Fomitopsidaceae. This is a monotypic genus, containing the single brown rot species ''Gilbertsonia angulipora'', found in the United States. ''Gilbertsonia'' is characterized by a dimitic hypha A hypha (; ) is a long, branching, filamentous structure of a fungus, oomycete, or actinobacterium. In most fungi, hyphae are the main mode of vegetative growth, and are collectively called a mycelium. Structure A hypha consists of one o ...l system with clamped generative and well-developed binding hyphae. The generic name honors mycologist Robert Lee Gilbertson (1925 – 2011). The genus was circumscribed by Erast Parmasto in Harvard Pap. Bot. Vol.6 on page 179 in 2001.

Fibroporia
''Fibroporia'' is a genus of ten species of poroid crust fungi in the family Fomitopsidaceae. The genus contains species similar to those in genus '' Antrodia'', but they are phylogenetically distinct. Taxonomy The genus was circumscribed in 1968 by Estonian mycologist Erast Parmasto with '' Fibroporia vaillantii'' (formerly ''Polyporus vaillantii'' DC.) as the type species. He defined the genus as containing species with fimbriate (hairlike) to rhizomorphic margins, and ellipsoid to slightly thick-walled spores. In 1991, Leif Ryvarden did not consider the rhizomorphs to be a characteristic worthy of creating a separate genus, and proposed ''Fibroporia'' to be synonymous with '' Antrodia''. Several molecular studies support the separation of ''Fibroporia'' as a distinct genus from ''Antrodia''.

Donkioporia
''Donkioporia'' is a genus of fungi in the family Fomitopsidaceae. The genus consists of two resupinate (crust-like) species: the type '' Donkioporia expansa'', and '' D. albidofusca'' (formerly '' Poria albidofusca''), which was transferred to the genus in 2010. The genus name of ''Donkioporia'' is in honour of Marinus Anton Donk Marinus Anton Donk (14 August 1908 – 2 September 1972) was a Dutch mycology, mycologist.

Buglossoporus
''Buglossoporus'' is a genus of fungi in the family Fomitopsidaceae. The genus was circumscribed in 1966 by Czech mycologists František Kotlába and Zdeněk Pouzar, with '' Buglossoporus quercinus'' as the type species. In some works, ''Buglossoporus'' has been treated as a synonym of '' Piptoporus''. '' Buglossoporus magnus'', known from only three locations in old growth lowland rainforest of Peninsular Malaysia, is considered a vulnerable species by the IUCN, and appears on their Red List. Description The fruit bodies of ''Buglossoporus'' are annual. They have a cap, and a variable attachment to the substrate—in some species the cap is attached directly, while others have a stipe. The cap surface ranges in colour from pink, cinnamon, orange to brown, with a texture that is either felt-like or smooth, without zone lines. The pore surface on the cap underside is white, cream, buff to brown. Pores are small, with a round to angular shape. The context is white, cream, ...
