“…Although the REC-UEG suffers a strong environmental impact due to its location, it is still possible to observe expressive biodiversity that resists. Besides the richness of corticioid and poroid fungi that we reported, previous studies in the area also presented new occurrences for the Cerrado (Alvarenga & Xavier-Santos 2017, Camilo-Cotrim et al 2020, Ferreira-Sá et al 2023. Thus, the number of specimens collected over the years, as well as the species richness shows the importance of preservation for regional Funga representativeness.…”

Corticioid and poroid fungi are traditional morphological groups composed of ligninolytic species. Due to their efficiency in wood decomposition process, many species have great ecological importance, especially in nutrient cycling, as well as for their biotechnological properties. Nevertheless, knowledge about these fungi is scarce in many phytogeographic regions of Brazil, as is the case of the Cerrado, since mycodiversity studies in this biome are mainly focused on areas of the São Paulo state. Here we present the taxonomic inventory of corticioid and poroid fungi from the Reserva Ecológica da Universidade Estadual de Goiás (REC-UEG), a Cerrado remnant in Anápolis, Goiás, Brazil. The area is covered by three typical Cerrado landscapes (cerrado stricto sensu, mesophilic forest, and gallery forest), widely explored for scientific and educational purposes by the academic and regional community which seeks to learn about and preserve its biodiversity. Exsiccates deposited in the fungarium of the Universidade Estadual de Goiás (HUEG-Fungi) were analyzed. They are the result of collections made over 20 years, in approximately 103 ha of the reserve. Samples were characterized macro and microscopically and identified based on specialized literature. 51 species were recognized, which are distributed in 33 genera, 15 families, and five orders. Species were most frequent in forested areas and among them, six are new occurrence records for the Cerrado, nine for the Midwest region, and nine for the Goiás state. These results contribute to increase the knowledge of these fungi in the Cerrado, as well as geographic distribution, and show the relevance of preserving the reserve for the regional Funga representativity.

“…A portion of the basidiomycetes corresponds to gasteroid fungi, widely distributed in the tropics (Mueller et al, 2007), mainly in Brazil, where the diversity of the group increases every year (Accioly et al, 2019;Assis et al, 2022;Ferreira-Sá et al, 2021;Freitas et al, 2023;Santana & Couceiro, 2023). Studies with this group revealed the production of important substances with proven biological activity (Liu & Zhang, 2004;Dore et al, 2007;Coetze and Van Wyk, 2009), but there is a study gap regarding the discoloration of synthetic dyes.…”

Amazonian strains of Cyathus spp. and Geastrum spp. were studied for the ability to discolor the trypan blue azo dye and reduce its toxicity. Discoloration of trypan blue dye (0.05%) was evaluated in solid and aqueous medium over different periods. The reduction of dye toxicity after treatment was assessed by seed germination and the development of lettuce seedlings (Lactuca sativa L.) and toxicity test in Artemia salina (L.) larvae. All evaluated strains showed the potential to reduce the color intensity of trypan blue dye. Cyathus strains reached 96% discoloration, and C. albinus and C. limbatus also reduced dye toxicity. Geastrum strains showed a high efficiency degree in color reduction, reaching 98% discoloration, however, the by-products generated during the process presented toxicity and require further investigation. For the first time, Amazonian strains of gasteroid fungi degrading trypan blue are reported, some even reducing its toxicity. Thus, making them promising sources of enzymes of interest to bioremediation scenarios involving synthetic dyes.
