Additions to the Turkish Discomycetes

Abstract

The apothecial ascomycetes that produce cup-shaped ascomata with various colors are commonly known as discomycetes. They represent approximately 9000 taxa, which are saprobic, parasitic, mycorrhizal, or lichenized. Some discomycetes are used in drugs or as biological control agents. Therefore, the fungal resources of the group are significant for biodiversity conservation (Gargas

Taxonomic studies on some agaricoid and boletoid fungi of Turkey

“…In an earlier study we reported 7 new records for the Turkish mycota (Sesli, 2014). The total number of ascomycetous fungi recognized as occurring in Turkey increased to 217 with the recent study by Uzun et al (2014). Lichenized and lichenicolous fungi of Gevne valley (Konya, Antalya) were documented by Kocakaya et al (2014).…”

Contributions to the macrofungi of Bingöl, Turkey
