Abstract
|
|
|
Basidiomycetous macrofungi play important roles in maintaining forest ecosystems via carbon cycling and themobilization of nitrogen and phosphorus. To understand the impact of human activity on macrofungi, an ongoing project at theKorea National Arboretum is focused on surveying the macrofungi in unexploited areas. Mt. Oseo was targeted in this surveybecause the number of visitors to this destination has been steadily increasing, and management and conservation plans for thisdestination are urgently required. Through 5 field surveys of Mt. Oseo from April to October 2012, 116 specimens ofbasidiomycetous macrofungi were collected and classified. The specimens were identified to the species level by analyzing theirmorphological characteristics and their DNA sequence data. A total of 80 species belonging to 57 genera and 25 families wereidentified. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to identify five of these species?Artomyces microsporus,Hymenopellis raphanipes, Pholiota abietis, Phylloporus brunneiceps, and Sirobasidium magnum?in Korea.
