Rossbeevera Yunnanensis
''Rossbeevera'' is a genus of sequestrate (truffle-like) fungi in the family Boletaceae. It was first published in 2012 under the erroneous name ''Rosbeeva'', but was corrected to ''Rossbeevera'' in the same issue. The genus was created to contain species formerly placed in ''Chamonixia'', but characterized by having ellipsoid to spindle-shaped spores with 3–5 longitudinal ridges, bluish-green to deep blue fruit body staining reaction, and a thin whitish peridium. The Chinese species ''Rossbeevera yunnanensis, R. yunnanensis'' is the earliest diverging lineage within the genus, and has a close phylogenetic relationship with the bolete genera ''Turmalinea'' and ''Leccinellum''. The genus name ''Rossbeevera'' honours Ross Beever (1946–2010), a New Zealand botanist and mycologist.

Index Fungorum
''Index Fungorum'' is an international project to index all formal names (scientific names) in the fungus kingdom. the project is based at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, one of three partners along with Landcare Research and the Institute of Microbiology, Chinese Academy of Sciences. It is somewhat comparable to the International Plant Names Index (IPNI), in which the Royal Botanic Gardens is also involved. A difference is that where IPNI does not indicate correct names, the ''Index Fungorum'' does indicate the status of a name. In the returns from the search page a currently correct name is indicated in green, while others are in blue (a few, aberrant usages of names are indicated in red). All names are linked to pages giving the correct name, with lists of synonyms. ''Index Fungorum'' is one of three nomenclatural repositories recognized by the Nomenclature Committee for Fungi; the others are '' MycoBank'' and '' Fungal Names''.

Mycologist
Mycology is the branch of biology concerned with the study of fungi, including their genetic and biochemical properties, their taxonomy and their use to humans, including as a source for tinder, traditional medicine, food, and entheogens, as well as their dangers, such as toxicity or infection. A biologist specializing in mycology is called a mycologist. Mycology branches into the field of phytopathology, the study of plant diseases, and the two disciplines remain closely related because the vast majority of plant pathogens are fungi. Overview Historically, mycology was a branch of botany because, although fungi are evolutionarily more closely related to animals than to plants, this was not recognized until a few decades ago. Pioneer mycologists included Elias Magnus Fries, Christian Hendrik Persoon, Anton de Bary, Elizabeth Eaton Morse, and Lewis David von Schweinitz. Beatrix Potter, author of ''The Tale of Peter Rabbit'', also made significant contributions to the field. ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Ross Beever
Ross Ewen Beever (3 January 1946 – 3 June 2010) was a New Zealand geneticist and mycologist. Academic career Born in Te Kūiti, Beever completed a MSc at Auckland University with a thesis ''Growth of fungi on potato extract media'' and a PhD at Leeds entitled ''Genetic and biochemical studies of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase in Neurospora crassa''. On his return to New Zealand he worked for DSIR and later Landcare Research, principally on ''Botrytis cinerea'' and other important plant diseases including '' Phytoplasma australiense'', responsible for cabbage tree mortality, and ''Phytophthora'' species responsible for Kauri dieback. He was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society of New Zealand in 2004. Beever died in Auckland in 2010. The Ross Beever Memorial Mycological Award was established by the New Zealand Mycological Society in 2014. Fungus taxa named in his honour include the species '' Colletotrichum beeveri'' and ''Cortinarius beeverorum'', and the genus ''Rossbee ...

Leccinellum
''Leccinellum'' is a genus of fungi in the family Boletaceae. Mycologists Andreas Bresinsky and Manfred Binder circumscription (taxonomy), circumscribed the genus in 2003 to contain ''Leccinum'' species with a yellow hymenium, pore surface and a trichoderm-like cap cuticle. ''Leccinellum nigrescens'' (originally ''Leccinum nigrescens'' Singer 1947) was designated the type species; this taxon has since been renamed to ''Leccinellum crocipodium'' (Letell.) Della Maggiora & Trassinelli. The oak-associating ''Leccinellum quercophilum'' was described from the United States in 2013.

Bolete
{{refimprove, date=July 2020 A bolete is a type of mushroom, or fungal fruiting body. It can be identified thanks to a unique mushroom cap. The cap is clearly different from the stem. On the underside of the cap there is usually a spongy surface with pores, instead of the gills typical of mushrooms. However, there are some boletes that are gilled, such as species of '' Chroogomphus'', '' Gomphidius'', ''Paxillus'', '' Phylloporus'' and '' Hygrophoropsis aurantiaca''. "Bolete" is the English common name In biology, a common name of a taxon or organism (also known as a vernacular name, English name, colloquial name, country name, popular name, or farmer's name) is a name that is based on the normal language of everyday life; and is often contrast ... for fungus species whose mushroom caps have this appearance. The boletes are classified in the order Boletales. Not all members of the order Boletales are boletes. The micromorphology and molecular phylogeny of the order ...

Phylogenetic
In biology, phylogenetics (; from Greek φυλή/ φῦλον [] "tribe, clan, race", and wikt:γενετικός, γενετικός [] "origin, source, birth") is the study of the evolutionary history and relationships among or within groups of organisms. These relationships are determined by Computational phylogenetics, phylogenetic inference methods that focus on observed heritable traits, such as DNA sequences, protein amino acid sequences, or morphology. The result of such an analysis is a phylogenetic tree—a diagram containing a hypothesis of relationships that reflects the evolutionary history of a group of organisms. The tips of a phylogenetic tree can be living taxa or fossils, and represent the "end" or the present time in an evolutionary lineage. A phylogenetic diagram can be rooted or unrooted. A rooted tree diagram indicates the hypothetical common ancestor of the tree. An unrooted tree diagram (a network) makes no assumption about the ancestral line, and does ...

Peridium
The peridium is the protective layer that encloses a mass of spores in fungi. This outer covering is a distinctive feature of gasteroid fungi. Description Depending on the species, the peridium may vary from being paper-thin to thick and rubbery or even hard. Typically, peridia consist of one to three layers. If there is only a single layer, it is called a peridium. If two layers are present, the outer layer is called the exoperidium and the inner layer the endoperidium. If three layers are present, they are the exoperidium, the mesoperidium and the endoperidium. In the simplest subterranean forms, the peridium remains closed until the spores are mature, and even then shows no special arrangement for dehiscence or opening, but has to decay before the spores are liberated. Puffballs For most fungi, the peridium is ornamented with scales or spines. In species that become raised above ground during their development, generally known as the " puffballs", the peridium is usually ...
