“…However, a tropical African origin has long been posited for Russulaceae based on endemism and morphological distinctiveness (Pirozynski, 1983; Buyck et al ., 1996). In the wider Neotropics, Russulaceae occur in all highland and lowland regions where ECM vegetation is found, and modern work has revealed a plethora of new species (Buyck & Ovrebo, 2002; Miller et al ., 2002, 2012; Wartchow & Cavalcanti, 2010; Cheype & Campo, 2012; Sà et al ., 2013, 2019; Sà & Wartchow, 2013, 2016; Wartchow et al ., 2013; Montoya et al ., 2014; Trierveiler‐Pereira et al ., 2014; Crous et al ., 2017; Delgat et al ., 2020; Duque Barbosa et al ., 2020; Silva‐Filho et al ., 2020; Manz et al ., 2021; Vera et al ., 2021). Several lowland neotropical Russulaceae have affinities with tropical African species (Buyck, 1990; Buyck & Ovrebo, 2002; De Crop et al ., 2017).…”

Biogeographic history of a large clade of ectomycorrhizal fungi, the Russulaceae, in the Neotropics and adjacent regions

The biogeography of neotropical fungi remains poorly understood. Here, we reconstruct the origins and diversification of neotropical lineages in one of the largest clades of ectomycorrhizal fungi in the globally widespread family Russulaceae.We inferred a supertree of 3285 operational taxonomic units, representing worldwide internal transcribed spacer sequences. We reconstructed biogeographic history and diversification and identified lineages in the Neotropics and adjacent Patagonia.The ectomycorrhizal Russulaceae have a tropical African origin. The oldest lineages in tropical South America, most with African sister groups, date to the mid-Eocene, possibly coinciding with a boreotropical migration corridor. There were several transatlantic dispersal events from Africa more recently. Andean and Central American lineages mostly have northtemperate origins and are associated with North Andean uplift and the general north-south biotic interchange across the Panama isthmus, respectively. Patagonian lineages have Australasian affinities. Diversification rates in tropical South America and other tropical areas are lower than in temperate areas.Neotropical Russulaceae have multiple biogeographic origins since the mid-Eocene involving dispersal and co-migration. Discontinuous distributions of host plants may explain low diversification rates of tropical lowland ectomycorrhizal fungi. Deeply diverging neotropical fungal lineages need to be better documented.

“…Maximum likelihood and Bayesian Inference analyses from the concatenated dataset showed the existence of two major phylogenetic lineages that correspond to Amanita and Russula genera, as expected, placing M8 sample within Amanita species group (BS: 93 and BI:1.0) and the remaining samples (M1 to M7) within Russula clade (BS:100 and BI:1.0). Seven Russula subgenera as recognized by Buick et al and Vera et al [ 60 , 61 ] ( Russula ; Malodora; Brevipes; Compactae; Glutinosae; Heterophyllidia and Ingratula ) were identified in our phylogeny. In this framework, M1 clustered within the subgenus Malodora (BS:99 and BI:1.0), showing a close relationship with Russula cellulata (BS:100 and BI:1.0).…”

The harvesting, processing, and sale of wild edible mushrooms (WEM) is a relevant economic activity in Angola and a good example of the use of non-wood forest products for food. Although there is deep traditional knowledge about the general properties of WEMs, a huge gap remains in detailed scientific knowledge. Thus, this study aimed to investigate the socio-economic importance of the species sold at local markets in Huila, Angola, from their molecular identification to the assessment of their nutritional, chemical, and bioactive profiles. From the eight WEM morphotypes studied, five were identified based on phenotypical and molecular approaches (four Russula spp., and Amanita loosei). The studied mushrooms proved to be a rich source of carbohydrates, proteins, and ashes, also presenting low amounts of fat. Chemical analyses further revealed mannitol as the main free sugar in all samples, and organic acids, namely, oxalic, quinic, malic, citric, and fumaric acids in low amounts. Additionally, the α-tocopherol isoform and monounsaturated fatty acids were predominant. Regarding phenolic acids, protocatechuic, p-hydroxybenzoic, p-coumaric, and cinnamic acids were detected in all mushroom hydroethanolic extracts, being responsible for their antioxidant, antibacterial, and antifungal activities. Our investigation contributes to the identification and knowledge of WEMs as important complementary food sources in Angola, some of which were reported for the first time, promoting their utilization as a basis of nutritional and functional ingredients, as being able to be part of a balanced diet and to be used in new bio-based formulations.

“…Members of this genus often constitute crucial components of forest ecosystems via their extensive associations with plants, and also likely as a food source (their fruiting bodies/mushrooms) for a variety of animals [14]. Indeed, a number of Russula species are globally recognized as edible fungi [15] and have displayed promising (biopharmaceutical) properties with respect to possessing anticancer and antioxidative activities [16,17]. The morphological classification system for Russula is characterized by brightly colored fragile caps, brittle context, amyloid warty spores, abundant sphaerocysts in a heteromerous trama, an absence of latex, and simple-septate hyphae [18,19].…”

The characterization of natural fungal diversity impacts our understanding of ecological and evolutionary processes and can lead to novel bioproduct discovery. Russula and Lactarius, both in the order Russulales, represent two large genera of ectomycorrhizal fungi that include edible as well as toxic varieties. Based on morphological and phylogenetic analyses, including nucleotide sequences of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS), the 28S large subunit of ribosomal RNA (LSU), the second largest subunit of RNA polymerase II (RPB2), the ribosomal mitochondrial small subunit (mtSSU), and the translation elongation factor 1-α (TEF1-α) gene sequences, we here describe and illustrate two new species of Russula and one new species of Lactarius from southern China. These three new species are: R. junzifengensis (R. subsect. Virescentinae), R. zonatus (R. subsect. Crassotunicatae), and L. jianyangensis (L. subsect. Zonarii).
