  Here we assess the impact of geographically dependent (latitude, longitude, and alti-tude) changes in bioclimatic (temperature, precipitation, and primary productivity) variability on fun-gal fruiting phenology across Europe. Two main nutritional guilds of fungi, saprotrophic andectomycorrhizal, were further separated into spring and autumn fruiters. We used a path analysis toinvestigate how biogeographic patterns in fungal fruiting phenology coincided with seasonal changesin climate and primary production. Across central to northern Europe, mean fruiting varied byapproximately 25 d, primarily with latitude. Altitude affected fruiting by up to 30 d, with springdelays and autumnal accelerations. Fruiting was as much explained by the effects of bioclimatic vari-ability as by their large-scale spatial patterns. Temperature drove fruiting of autumnal ectomycorrhizaland saprotrophic groups as well as spring saprotrophic groups, while primary production and precipi-tation were major drivers for spring-fruiting ectomycorrhizal fungi. Species-specific phenology predic-tors were not stable, instead deviating from the overall mean. There is significant likelihood thatfurther climatic change, especially in temperature, will impact fungal phenology patterns at largespatial scales. The ecological implications are diverse, potentially affecting food webs (asynchrony),nutrient cycling and the timing of nutrient availability in ecosystems.

  Despite the dramatic phenological responses of fungal fruiting to recent climate warming, it is unknown whether spatial distributions of fungi have changed and to what extent such changes are influenced by fungal traits, such as ectomycorrhizal (ECM) or saprotrophic lifestyles, spore characteristics, or fruit body size. Our overall aim was to understand how climate and fungal traits determine whether and how species‐specific fungal fruit body abundances have shifted across latitudes over time, using the UK national database of fruiting records. The data employed were recorded over 45 yr (1970–2014), and include 853 278 records of Agaricales, Boletales and Russulales, though we focus only on the most common species (with more than 3000 records each). The georeferenced observations were analysed by a Bayesian inference as a Gaussian additive model with a specification following a joint species distribution model. We used an offset, random contributions and fixed effects to isolate different potential biases from the trait‐specific interactions with latitude/climate and time. Our main aim was assessed by examination of the three‐way‐interaction of trait, predictor (latitude or climate) and time. The results show a strong trait‐specific shift in latitudinal abundance through time, as ECM species have become more abundant relative to saprotrophic species in the north. Along precipitation gradients, phenology was important, in that species with shorter fruiting seasons have declined markedly in abundance in oceanic regions, whereas species with longer seasons have become relatively more common overall. These changes in fruit body distributions are correlated with temperature and rainfall, which act directly on both saprotrophic and ECM fungi, and also indirectly on ECM fungi, through altered photosynthate allocation from their hosts. If these distributional changes reflect fungal activity, there will be important consequences for the responses of forest ecosystems to changing climate, through effects on primary production and nutrient cycling.

  Species occurrence observations are increasingly available for scientific analyses through citizen science projects and digitization of museum records, representing a largely untapped ecological resource. When combined with open-source data, there is unparalleled potential for understanding many aspects of the ecology and biogeography of organisms. Here we describe the process of assembling a pan-European mycological meta-database (ClimFun) and integrating it with open-source data to advance the fields of macroecology and biogeography against a backdrop of global change. Initially 7.3 million unique fungal species fruit body records, spanning nine countries, were processed and assembled into 6 million records of more than 10,000 species. This is an extraordinary amount of fungal data to address macro-ecological questions. We provide two examples of fungal species with different life histories, one ectomycorrhizal and one wood decaying, to demonstrate how such continental-scale meta-databases can offer unique insights into climate change effects on fungal phenology and fruiting patterns in recent decades.

  Despite the critical importance of fungi as symbionts with plants, resources for animals, and drivers of ecosystem function, the spatiotemporal distributions of fungi remain poorly understood. The belowground life cycle of fungi makes it difficult to assess spatial patterns and dynamic processes even with recent molecular techniques. Here we offer an explicit spatiotemporal Bayesian inference of the drivers behind spatial distributions from investigation of a Swiss inventory of fungal fruit bodies. The unique inventory includes three temperate forest sites in which a total of 73 952 fungal fruit bodies were recorded systematically in a spatially explicit design between 1992 and 2006. Our motivation is to understand how broad-scale climate factors may influence spatiotemporal dynamics of fungal fruiting within forests, and if any such effects vary between two functional groups, ectomycorrhizal (ECM) and saprotrophic fungi. For both groups we asked: 1) how consistent are the locations of fruiting patches, the sizes of patches, the quantities of fruit bodies, and of prevalence (occupancy)? 2) Do the annual spatial characteristics of fungal fruiting change systematically over time? 3) Are spatial characteristics of fungal fruiting driven by climatic variation? We found high inter-annual continuity in fruiting for both functional groups. The saprotrophic species were characterised by small patches with variable fruit body counts. In contrast, ECM species were present in larger, but more distinctly delimited patches. The spatial characteristics of the fungal community were only indirectly influenced by climate. However, climate variability influenced overall yields and prevalence, which again links to spatial structure of fruit bodies. Both yield and prevalence were correlated with the amplitudes of occurrence and of fruit body counts, but only prevalence influenced the spatial range. Summarizing, climatic variability affects forest-stand fungal distributions via its influence on yield (amount) and prevalence (occupancy), whereas fungal life-history strategies dictate fine-scale spatial characteristics.

  In the present work we put focus on ectomycorrhizal Agaricales, Boletales and Russulales, all with conspicuous sporocarps, giving us an opportunity to compare the below ground ectomycorrhiza diversity with the aboveground sporocarp diversity. In the sand dune area on Lista, South-west Norway, nine plots of 3 m diameter were established in Salix repens (creeping willow) dominated vegetation; i.e. three plots on dune slacks, three plots on hummock dunes, and three plots on eroded dunes. In 2009 ectomycorrhizal Salix repens roots were sampled in each plot. Ectomycorrhizal taxa were identified by pyrosequencing. From 2008 to 2014 fungal sporocarps were collected and identified in the same plots. Of the 30 actual ectomycorrhizal taxa identified on the roots, 10 of them were also accompanied by aboveground sporocarps. In addition, 11 taxa were only recorded as sporocarps. The most frequent ectomycorrhizal taxon was Hebeloma spp, recorded in all nine plots. The most frequent taxon on species level was Cortinarius saniosus, however, only recorded on ectomycorrhizal roots while sporocarps were found outside the plots. The most frequent ectomycorrhizal species with at least one plot housing accompanied sporocarps were Cortinarius casimiri and Russula laccata. Some of the ectomycorrhizal taxa belong to the typical inventory of Salix repens dominated dune vegetation: Lactarius controversus, Russula persicina, Tricholoma cingulatum, Inocybe impexa, I. dunensis and Laccaria maritima; the two last taxa only represented by sporocarps. We conclude that a combination of sampling below ground ECM and monitoring aboveground sporocarps seems to be an optimal approach if we want to cover the diversity of conspicuous ECM fungi in an area.

  The grass parasitic fungus Claviceps purpurea sensu lato produces sclerotia with toxic indole alkaloids. It constitutes several genetic groups with divergent habitat preferences that recently were delimited into separate proposed species. We aimed to 1) analyze genetic variation of C. purpurea sensu lato in Norway, 2) characterize the associated indole alkaloid profiles, and 3) explore relationships between genetics, alkaloid chemistry and ecology. Approximately 600 sclerotia from 14 different grass species were subjected to various analyses including DNA sequencing and HPLC-MS. Molecular results, supported by chemical and ecological data, revealed one new genetic group (G4) in addition to two of the three known; G1 (C. purpurea sensu stricto) and G2 (C. humidiphila). G3 (C. spartinae) was not found. G4, which was apparently con-specific with the recently described C. arundinis sp. nov, was predominantly found in very wet habitats on Molinia caerulea and infrequently in saline habitats on Leymus arenarius. Its indole-diterpene profile resembled G2, while its ergot alkaloid profile differed from G2 in high amounts of ergosedmam. In contrast to G1, indole-diterpenes were consistently present in G2 and G4. Our study supports and complements the newly proposed species delimitation of the C. purpurea complex, but challenges some species characteristics including host spectrum, habitat preferences and sclerotial floating ability.

  Cortinarius is an ectomycorrhizal Agaricales genus with high diversity of which rDNA sequences of 86 species together with four outgroup taxa were investigated phylogenetically by aid of Maximum Likelihood and Bayesian analyses. The Cortinarius data set represents 81 taxa from the Northern Hemisphere showing the main variation spectrum among the species. In addition, five species from the Southern Hemisphere are included. The phylogenetic tree of Cortinarius gives statistical support to twelve monophyletic groups in the upper level. They are discussed in context of morphology, chemistry (secondary compounds), and ecology. The phylogenetic tree lacks, however, satisfactory support for its backbone. Several species could not be included in any group, especially those forming the basal framework of the tree. Of special interest is a “superclade” comprising eight of our monophyletic clades and two singletons. Here we find the majority of species with soluble pigments of octaketide origin, all species with compounds of nonaketide origin, the majority of species with hygrophaneous pileus, few species with viscid pileus, and no species with bulbous stipe base. Moreover, all species except one have duplex pileus cuticle. The morphological traits are not indicative for any clade, although some are more frequent in some clades than others. During the evolution they have been gained and lost several times. The chemical characteristics are – to a certain degree – more indicative for the clades. The evolution and ecological role of these compounds are discussed. Concerning the North European species, there are ecological differences between the clades, especially between clades specializing to rich or calcareous forests and clades specializing to poor forests or arctic-alpine environments.

  More than 100 species of macromycetes have been recorded for 40 years on sanddunes on the peninsula Lista on the extreme SW coast of Norway. This survey is based on 75 species (including a couple of varieties) of mushrooms (Agaricales, Boletales, and Russulales) from sand dunes on Lista. The species are divided into four groups according to the vegetation type they prefer: naked sand, dune pastures, dune slacks, or Salix repens hummock dunes. The species from naked sand had significantly larger spore volumes than the species from the other vegetation types. Spore shape, measured as Q-value, was not significantly different between the groups. In the naked sand, dune slacks, and Salix repens hummock dunes species with dark pigmented spores (brown, grey, purple or black) prevailed. In dune pastures species with pale spores (hyaline or pink) were most frequent. The large spores of fungi associated with naked sand can be interpreted as an adaption to the harsh ecological conditions in such environment: unprotected by a moss or lichen cover, a surface vulnerable to drought, and movement of sand grains. A large spore volume will provide enough water and nutrients for the primary mycelium to penetrate the sand surface. Moreover, big spores can be interpreted as a mechanism that prevents them from being spread too far, i.e., outside the limited areas of naked sand that meet the ecological requirements for these specialised fungi.

  In terrestrial ecosystems, fungi are the major agents of decomposition processes and nutrient cycling and of plant nutrient uptake. Hence, they have a vital impact on ecosystem processes and the terrestrial carbon cycle. Changes in productivity and phenology of fungal fruit bodies can give clues to changes in fungal activity, but understanding these changes in relation to a changing climate is a pending challenge among ecologists. Here we report on phenological changes in fungal fruiting in Europe over the past four decades. Analyses of 746,297 dated and geo-referenced mushroom records of 486 autumnal fruiting species from Austria, Norway, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom revealed a widening of the annual fruiting season in all countries during the period 1970–2007. The mean annual day of fruiting has become later in all countries. However, the interspecific variation in phenological responses was high. Most species moved toward a later ending of their annual fruiting period, a trend that was particularly strong in the United Kingdom, which may reflect regional variation in climate change and its effects. Fruiting of both saprotrophic and mycorrhizal fungi now continues later in the year, but mycorrhizal fungi generally have a more compressed season than saprotrophs. This difference is probably due to the fruiting of mycorrhizal fungi partly depending on cues from the host plant. Extension of the European fungal fruiting season parallels an extended vegetation season in Europe. Changes in fruiting phenology imply changes in mycelia activity, with implications for ecosystem function.

  Most basidiomycete fungi produce annual short-lived sexual fruit bodies from which billions of microscopic spores are spread into the air during a short time period. However, little is known about the selective forces that have resulted in some species fruiting early and others later in the fruiting season. This study of relationships between morphological and ecological characteristics, climate factors and time of fruiting are based upon thorough statistical analyses of 66 520 mapped records from Norway, representing 271 species of autumnal fruiting mushroom species. We found a strong relationship between spore size and time of fruiting; on average, a doubling of spore size (volume) corresponded to 3 days earlier fruiting. Small-spored species dominate in the oceanic parts of Norway, whereas large-spored species are typical of more continental parts. In separate analyses, significant relationships were observed between spore size and climate factors. We hypothesize that these relationships are owing to water balance optimization, driven by water storage in spores as a critical factor for successful germination of primary mycelia in the drier micro-environments found earlier in the fruiting season and/or in continental climates.

  Secondary metabolites in Cortinarius infractus and Cortinarius subtortus were analyzed by using supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) with multiple detectors. Cortinarius infractus (Pers.: Fr.) Fr. and C. subtortus (Pers.: Fr.) Fr. (brown spored mushrooms in Agaricales, Basidiomycota) are characterized by an overall olivaceous color on the basidiocarp, globose to subglobose spores, and a slightly bitter taste, which may possibly be related to the presence of the bitter indole alkaloid infractopicrine. Both species belong to the subgenus Phlegmacium, following the traditional infrageneric systematic classification of Cortinarius. There is a dispute in the literature over whether they belong to one section (Amarescens Mos.) or two (Infracti—Kühn. & Romagn. ex Brandrud and Subtorti— Brandrud & Melot). A study comparing the chemical composition of indole alkaloids in the basidiocarps of C. infractus and C. subtortus by supercritical fluid chromatography–coronacharged aerosol detector–mass spectrometry (SFC–corona CAD–MS) and supercritical fluid chromatography–UV- mass spectrometry (SFC– UV-MS) was performed. Cortinarius infractus was found to contain the alkaloid substances of the β-carboline-1-propionic acid group (β-carboline-1-propionic acid, 6-hydroxy-β- carboline-1-propionic acid and infractopicrine). However, no such substances were found in C. subtortus. The placement of C. infractus and C. subtortus in two different sections is therefore supported by chemotaxonomy. The fingerprinting was performed by SFC connected to a multidetector system in the combinations of SFC– corona (CAD)–MS and SFC–UV-MS. In many publications, the corona CAD was defined as a universal detector for HPLC. The use of the corona- charged aerosol detector in conjunction with SFC is an innovative and promising development in the detection of secondary metabolites in chemotaxonomy.

  Municipal source separated food waste (MSSFW) is an increasingly abundant nutritionally rich and complex product low in toxic constituents. Thus, it should be fed to heterotrophic organisms like pigs or mushrooms. While representing a hygienic problem as feed, composting promotes hygienization. This combination of community service and crop production represents an economic potential for both mushroom growers and waste handlers. There is little of this kind of work reported elsewhere. In the Nordic countries MSSFW can further be characterised as acid, moist and having a variable content of non-food objects. When entering composting, it’s nature will also be affected by pre-treatment. To test it’s suitability, a currently used MSSFW compost formula and facility provided phase 1 compost: After screening, the MSSFW is pre-treated with Ca(OH)2 and mixed with spruce bark. Process and chemical factors are described. Experiments are presented using this as substrate for Agaricus bisporus and A. brasiliensis. A commercial mushroom compost was included for reference. For A. bisporus, the yield from four breaks was 29.3% on the commercial and 27.9% on the MSSFW compost (no significant difference). For A. brasiliensis, four breaks yielded 9.2% on commercial and 17.8% on the MSSFW compost (significantly higher on MSSFW). The A. brasiliensis mushrooms contained 8 mg cadmium /kg dry matter when grown on the food waste compost and 8.5 when grown on the commercial compost. A. bisporus contained <1mg/kg DW on both composts The surprisingly high yields are discussed as well as focus for further work.

  This study was triggered by the absence of infractine in EtOH extracts of Cortinarius infractus and the presence of the beta-carboline-1-propionic acid. In previous studies it was determined that C. infractus contained indole alkaloid substances of the infractine group. It is quite possible that some of these compounds do not exist in any other mushroom species and therefore they could prove to be valuable chemotaxonomic markers. Proper classification of this species requires that the chemical markers are identified correctly. In this study, the presence of several compounds previously found in C. infractus (Pers.: Fr.) Fr. is questioned. In this investigation, it was shown by HPLC-MS that infractine and 6-hydroxyinfractine, previously described as constituents of C. infractus, were artifacts produced during the extraction process. Also, the molecular species that participate in the artifact formation were identified. Infractine and 6-hydroxyinfractine, reported earlier in C. infractus, originate from the precursor (pre-infractine) beta-carboline-1-propionic acid during extraction with methanol.

  This study sample and identify species of fungi on withered vegetation in the spring "grazing corridor" from infields to Narthecium bogs for a sheep herd almost chronically vulnerable to phototoxic disease. Hepatogen photosensitizing disorders like alveld attack grazing sheep, especially lambs, in various parts of the world. It has been hypothesized that saponin metabolites in the monocotyledonous plant Narthecium ossifragum causes the disorder in Norway, however, this has not been verified. Thus, the search for other causal agents or saponin cofactors (the cofactor hypothesis) has been intensified, and endophytic poisonous fungi associated with dead N. ossifragum leaves and grasses are among the prime suspects. The fungal diversity was targeted by obtaining axenic cultures from surface-sterilized plant material, with subsequent DNA isolation, PCR, and sequencing of the ITS nrDNA region. The taxonomic affinities of the obtained sequences were thereafter explored by similarity searches against the public access sequence database EMBL/GenBank/DDBJ. Among the spectrum of identified taxa were representatives of Cladosporium, Fusarium, Penicillium, and Trichoderma, all of which are well known as potential producers of toxins. A possible involvement of these toxic species in the etiology of alveld is evaluated and discussed.

  The fungi on the sand dune areas on Lista (SW Norway) were revisited autumn 2006, 33 years after I fulfilled my last season for my thesis dealing with the funga on the same dunes. To be able to compare the results from the present field work with the results from the past field work, I had to accomplish an ad hoc practise, which is discussed in this paper. For simplicity, only the 30 most typical fungi on sand dune systems were included. All, except six, of these species were re-found, including species considered as obligate sand dune fungi: Laccaria maritima, Psathyrella ammophila, Inocybe impexa, I. serotina, I. devoniensis, I. dunensis, and Phallus hadriani. The fungi exhibiting the strongest decline were mainly species connected to dry dune pastures, which in many places have been altered towards man-influenced meadows due to influence from modern agriculture, viz. artificial watering and fertilisation. The main conclusion is, however, that the funga on the sand dunes on Lista in 2006 was surprisingly little changed since the preceding 33 years.

  Dette er sjuende og siste artikkel om livets tre. Dette er en oppsummering av de tidligere artiklene. Det legges særlig vekt på hva som tidligere hørte til planteriket og hvordan moderne systematikk nå behandler disse gruppene. Artikkelen konkluderer med at planter kan betraktes på minst tre ulike måter: fylogenetisk, nomenklatorisk eller økologisk.

  Claviceps purpurea produces sclerotia with toxic indole alkaloids that replace the grass host grains. Three genetic groups (G1-G3) with divergent habitat preferences and alkaloid chemistry are known from studies mainly covering America and Western Europe. We aimed to analyse the genetic variation in C. purpurea in Norway, characterize the indole alkaloid profiles within each genetic group, and explore the relationships between genetics, alkaloid chemistry and ecology. Sclerotia (~600) from 14 grass species were subjected to a floating test with subsequent DNA sequencing (ITS rDNA&beta tubulin) and indole alkaloid profiling (HPLC-MS). Phylogenetic analyses and haplotype networks supported the three known (G1-G3) and one new (G4) genetic groups of C. purpurea. This gained additional support from chemical and ecological data. The G4 group, predominantly found in very wet habitats on Molinia caerulea and infrequently in saline habitats on Leymus arenarius, produced consistently floating sclerotia. Its indolediterpenoid profile resembled G2, but differed in high amounts of ergopeptamergosedmam, the lactam congener of ergosedmine. Indolediterpenoids were consistently present in G2 and G4, while merely absent in G1. The G3 group was absent in our study, but G1 and G2 occurred on numerous grass species in different habitats (wet, dry and saline). Co-occurrence of up to three genetic groups on the same host within one plot was observed. Our study supports that the alkaloid chemistry in C. purpurea is a function of the genetic groups. Further, the co-occurrence suggests completed speciation in several genetic groups (ecotypes) within the C. purpurea complex

  Claviceps purpurea is a phytopathogenic ascomycete that parasitizes various grasses, most notably rye. Instead of a grain the infected host plant produces a fungal sclerotium in the autumn, containing toxic indole-alkaloids hazardous to animals and humans. Previously, three different genetic groups (G1-G3) with divergent habitat preferences and alkaloid chemistry have been detected, often referred to as C. purpurea ecotypes and chemoraces. The main aims of this study were to (1) analyse the genetic variation in C. purpurea in Norway, (2) characterise the indole-alkaloid profiles in relation to genetic groups, and (3) reveal the relationships between genetic groups, chemoraces and ecology. In total, 596 sclerotia from 14 different grass species were subjected to various analyses, including a sclerotial floating test, genetic analyses from which rDNA ITS and partial beta tubulin sequences were generated, and mass peaks of indole-alkaloids that were measured using HPLC-MS. After the floating test, all sclerotia were cut in halves in order to analyse one half genetically and one half chemically. Phylogenetic analyses and haplotype networks of genetic data supported three known (G1-G3) and one new (G4) genetic groups of C. purpurea, of which G1, G2 and G4 was present in Norway while G3 was absent. The new G4 group was supported also from chemical and ecological data. G4 produced sclerotia that were consistently floating, and was predominantly found in very wet habitats on Molinia caerulea, and occasionally also in saline habitats on Leymus arenarius. The G4 indole-alkaloid profile resembled that of G2, but differed with high amounts of the ergopeptam ergosedmam, a lactam congener of ergosedmine. Previously, G2 has been referred to as a chemorace based on its sole production of ergosine and ergocristine. The G2 sclerotia analysed in this study contained also mainly ergocristine, but in addition similar relative amounts of ergocryptine, and also lesser amounts of the other ergot alkaloids. A consistent presence of indole-diterpenoids in sclerotia from the G2 and G4 genetic groups was demonstrated, while these compounds with few exceptions were absent in the G1 genetic group. This study support that alkaloid chemistry is a function of the genetic groups, and that the indole-alkaloids profiles of C. purpurea sclerotia can be used to assign them to a specific genetic group. While G1 and G2 were found on numerous host plants and in different habitats, G3 and G4 seem to be more host and habitat specific. Co-occurrence of up to three genetic groups on the same host plant within the same habitat was observed. Thus, the results provided here suggest that the four groups G1-G4 in the C. purpurea complex represent four biological (cryptic) species rather than only ecotypes.

  Peter Christen Asbjørnsen ble født 15. januar 1812 i Christiania, og i år feirer vi derfor hans 200-års jubileum. - Det var en gang..., heter det seg. Asbjørnsen og Moe er jo nærmest blitt et begrep for oss nordmenn. Vi kan takke dem for eventyr som: Mannen som skulle stelle heime, Askeladden og hans gode hjelpere, Tyrihans, De tre Bukkene Bruse, Smørbukk, Guttene som traff trollene i Hedalskogen, Den Sjuende far i huset og mange, mange til. La oss derfor markere jubileet med å fremheve en annen side ved mannen, nemlig hans innsats for biologien. Den står på ingen måte tilbake for eventyrene!

  XIX Nordisk mykologisk kongress ble arrangert i Steinkjer fra 1. til 6. september 2009. Til sammen 75 deltakere fra 10 land var samlet. Steinkjer og Nord-Trøndelag ble valgt blant annet på grunn av stor variasjon i sopprike habitater, og at området er møtested for flere soppgeografiske elementer med for eksempel nordlige utposter for sørlige og sørøstlige arter. Både gran- og furudominerte kalkbarskoger, boreal regnskog, rike alm-hassellier og gammel barskog med mye død ved var prioriterte habitater. Særlig var kalkbarskoger på Snåsa-kalken i Steinkjer og Snåsa vurdert som spesielt interessante i forkant av kongressen. The XIX Nordic Mycological Congress was arranged in Steinkjer 1st to 6th September 2009, with 75 participants from 10 countries. Steinkjer and the surrounding municipalities in Nord- Trøndelag County, Central Norway, were chosen because of the great variation in habitats and many different myco-geographical elements represented in the area. Moreover some northernmost localities for southern or south-eastern species were found. Calcareous coniferous forests with Norway spruce or Scotch pine, boreal rain forests, rich steep forests dominated by elm and hazel and old growth coniferous forests with much dead wood were our first choice as excursion localities. Of special interest were the coniferous forests on the ?Snåsa limestones? in the municipalities of Steinkjer and Snåsa.

  Axel Gudbrand Blytt (1843-98) er nok den norske botanikeren, for ikke å si den norske forskeren overhodet, som hadde den mest omfattende kontakten med Charles Darwin. Dette til tross for at han ikke var den som sterkest fremmet Darwins teori i norsk vitenskapelig debatt eller i samfunnet for øvrig. Det var først og fremst Axel Blytts innsats som forsker som brakte ham i kontakt med 200-årsjubilanten, og her står Blytts klimavekslingsteori i første rekke.

  The mycorrhizal genus Cortinarius is suspected to be the largest genus of agarics, containing more than 2000 different species worldwide. The current infrageneric classification of Cortinarius is largely based on morphology, however, recent phylogenetic studies have challenged the characters traditionally used to circumscribe subgenera and sections of the genus. Our goal was to explore character evolution in the subgenera Cortinarius, Dermocybe, Leprocybe, Myxacium, Phlegmacium, Sericeocybe, and Telamonia, using a five gene nrSSU, nrITS (including the 5.8S gene), nrLSU, mitLSU, and mitSSU phylogeny. We used Bayesian maximum likelihood phylogenetic analyses. Previous phylogenetic studies, based on nrDNA loci, have shown that a number of important morphological characters are refound in several evolutionary lineages, suggesting that the current classification does not reflect the divergent evolutionary history of the genus. Analyses of the concatenated nrDNA and mitrDNA data set strengthen the view of an arbitrary, non-phylogenetic, infrageneric classification of Cortinarius, and new subgenera and sections need to be erected to approach a phylogenetic classification of this large genus.

  Chromatographic analysis can be an extremely valuable tool in the taxonomic classification of microorganisms, plants and fungi. In this study, the Discovery HS F5 column was used to analyze the indole alkaloid content of two closely related species of brown-spored mushroom: Cortinarius infractus and C. subtortus. The comparative idole alkaloid content analysis, along with chromatographic fingerprinting evidence, allowed the researchers to classify C. infractus and C. subtortus into two different taxonomical sections.

  The brown-spored agarics include saprotrophic and mycorrhizal fungi belonging to the families Bolbitiaceae, Cortinariaceae, Crepidotaceae, and Strophariaceae. The current classification of the brown-spored agarics is largely based on morphological characters and to less extent on molecular phylogenies. In the described project, the main goal is to analyse multi-locus sequence data by parsimony and Bayesian maximum likelihood methods in order to evaluate the current classification and to define monophyletic groups. A special emphasis is put on the genus Galerina, which includes saprotrophic and bryophilous species producing small, mycenoid and yellow to brownish basidiocarps. Preliminary results, based on analyses of partial LSU nrDNA sequences, strongly suggest that Galerina is polyphyletic and includes at least four independent lineages, in the phylogenies embedded with other genera of brown-spored agarics. These four groups largely reflect already recognized morphotaxa (subgenera or sections) within Galerina. Our findings also affirm that morphological characters, e.g. fruit body morphology and cystidial shape, often are highly homoplastic. Furthermore, the preliminary results indicate that the Galerina lineages, as well as the genus Gymnopilus, could be referred to a strongly emendated family Strophariaceae, which corresponds largely to the family as circumscribed by Kühner (1980).
