Distribution of iron, cobalt, zinc and selenium in macrofungi

2007

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Samples of wild growing ectomycorrhizal and terrestrial saprobic macrofungi (mushrooms) were collected from unpolluted areas and analyzed for their iron, cobalt, zinc and selenium content. Trace elements were determined using long-term instrumental neutron activation analysis. In total, 217 samples, including 87 species of ectomycorrhizal fungi and 43 species of terrestrial saprobes, were examined. Distribution of trace element contents in ectomycorrhizal and saprobic macrofungi was investigated; results are thoroughly compared with previously published data. Doubtful literature data and ability of macrofungi to accumulate/concentrate investigated elements are discussed. Hygrophoropsis aurantiaca was found to concentrate Fe and Russula atropurpurea was confirmed as an effective Zn-accumulating species. Distribution of Se in ectomycorrhizal species was obviously different from that in saprobic species; selenium contents were higher in saprobic species (mostly above 2 ppm).

“…It is known that high metal levels have been observed in mushrooms growing in heavily contaminated areas, such as those in the close vicinity of highways with heavy traffic [56], emission areas of metal smelters [57], domestic heating and long-range transport [58,59]. When studies of Durkan et al [12,13,14] are evaluated, it was seen that especially in the contents of Cr, Mn, Fe, Ni, Pb trace elements are high in the study area.…”

Objective: The investigation of the scale of environmental pollution is a major step towards preventing environmental pollution. Biomonitoring within an ecological programme involves the systematic use of living beings for obtaining quantitative information on changes in the environment, often due to anthropogenic activities. Material and methods: Trace metal levels in thirty-four different wild-growing edible mushroom species from Buyuk Menderes River Basin, West Anatolia, Turkey were determined by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES; Perkin Elmer, Optima 7000 DV). Results: The contents of trace elements in the mushroom samples were found in the ranges, 53.96 -3308, 0.229 -46.93,0.005 -2.224 and 2.809 -4.711 mg/kg for aluminum, boron, cobalt and tin, respectively. Al content was the highest in Pleurotus ostreatus (3308 mg/kg), and the lowest in Laetiporus .sulphureus (53.96 mg/kg). B content was the highest in Coprinus micaceus (46.93 mg/ kg), the lowest in Oudemansiella radicata (0.229 mg/kg). It was determined that Co content was the highest in Clavidina cristata (2.224 mg/kg), whereas the lowest in Agaricus bitorquis (0.005 mg/kg). In terms of Sn content, Agaricus campes tris (4.711 mg/kg) was the highest, and Suillus beilinii (2.809 mg/kg) was the lowest. Conclusion: Results could be explained by the fact that there are no industrial activités that emit these metals.

“…This would suggest that fungi possess a very effective mechanism that enables them to take up some trace elements from the substrate more readily. This mechanism may be more effective in the parasitic and saprophytic fungi trophic groups than in the mycorrhizal fungi group (Lepsova and Mejstrik, 1998).…”

“…Some noxious chemicals, including heavy metals, can be accumulated by some plants such as mushrooms and lichens. Compared to green plants, mushrooms can build up large concentrations of Pb, Cd, and Hg (Lepsova and Mejstrik, 1998;Tyler, 1989;Vetter, 1993). As these metals are well known for their toxicity at low concentrations, a great deal of effort has been made to evaluate the possible danger to human health from the ingestion of mushrooms.…”
