New species of Moristroma (Ascomycetes) and phylogenetic position of the genus

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The loculoascomycete Moristroma quercinum sp. nov. and Moristroma japonicum sp. nov. are described from Northern Europe (Denmark, Lithuania, Sweden) and Japan, respectively. M. quercinum is reported from wood of Quercus robur and Q. petraea, and M. japonicum is reported from wood of Quercus mongolica var. grossoserrata. Ascostromata of both species were found on hard heartwood of attached or shed branches. The two new species differ from the type species of the genus, M. polysporum, by the presence of pycnidia, and by the size of ascostromata, asci and ascospores. Drawings illustrate ascostromata, pycnidia, asci, hamathecium and ascospores of the two new species. A phylogenetic analysis suggests that Moristroma belongs to the Chaetothyriomycetes, rather than to the Dothideomycetes as previously suggested

Ecology and decay pattern of Inocutis dryophila on Quercus robur
- 2003
-
In: Karstenia. - : Finlands svampvänner. - 0453-3402. ; 43:2, s. 45-53
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The biology of Inocutis dryophila (Berk.) Fiasson & Niemelä was studied on Quercus robur L. in Lithuania, based on 22 host trees. Decay columns caused by the fungus in six oaks,120180 years old, were examined in detail by dissecting the stems. Length of the decay columns in different trees varied between 4.8 and 11 m. Vegetative compatibility tests with the isolates indicated that each rot column comprised of a single genet of the fungus, and that the rot columns in different trees represented different genets. Basidiocarps of the fungus were recorded from 0.7 to 12.5 m above the ground. Infection routes, forestry, and biodiversity aspects are discussed. Colour photographs are shown of the basidiocarp, decay of different stages, and confrontation tests among cultivated mycelia of the same and different genets.

Hotade tickor på ek i Litauen

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Rare and endangered species of Aphyllophorales have been studied on Quercus robur in Lithuania. In total, 5455 trees and 742 stumps of oaks have been investigated in pure oak stands, mixed deciduous woods, mixed coniferous–deciduous woods, parks, and in open landscapes. Fungi in the herbarium BILAS (Vilnius) were examined.The ecology, distribution, and status of the following polypores are treated, viz Fistulina hepatica (Schaeff.: Fr.) With., Grifola frondosa (Dicks.: Fr) S.F.Gray, Hapalopilus croceus (Pers.: Fr.) Bond. & Sing, Inocutis dryophila (Berk) Fiasson & Niemelä, Inonotus dryadeus (Pers.: Fr.) Murr., Piptoporus quercinus (Fr.) Pilát, and Polyporus umbellatus (Pers.) ex Fr. Each species is briefly described and localities are listed in detail. All species, except F. hepatica and P. quercinus, are included in the Lithuanian Red List of fungi. We suggest these two species should be added to the list, and classified according to the IUCN categories Near Threatened (NT) and Endangered (EN), respectively.The importance of saving the right type of substrate and habitat for the actual species is stressed. Thick dead, standing or fallen trees, and old stumps should not be removed, as F. hepatica, G. frondosa, H. croceus, and P. quercinus may continue to fructify for many years on this type of wood. Suppression of old host trees, formerly growing in a more open environment, is a problem at many sites. A proper clearing around these oaks is necessary to keep the oaks alive as long as possible. The necessity of favouring younger oaks of different age classes in the stands is pointed out, as a continuous supply of thick host trees is needed to preserve the fungi.Hapalopilus croceus, one of Europe’s most endangered fungi, fructifies on old thick oaks, a substrate that becomes more and more rare. All Lithuanian host trees of H. croceus are proposed to be preserved (even when dead) together with a sufficient number of oaks in the surroundings. In Sweden, which is still one of the strongholds of H. croceus in Europe, the species is classified as Critically Endangered (CR) and since 2000 also protected.The following two oak sites in Lithuania are highly recommended to be preserved, more closely investigated, and managed for the future: Punios Šilas (squares 31, 32 & 38), Alytus district. In this very valuable locality, where many old and thick oaks are suppressed by surrounding younger trees, we found H. croceus (on 11 oaks), I. dryophila, F. hepatica, P. quercinus, and the red-listed beetle Osmoderma eremita (Scop.). “Kauno Ažuolynas” in Kaunas is a unique park with more than 800 mostly old, thick oaks, mixed with, e.g., Tilia. Here we observed F. hepatica, G. frondosa (on 11 oaks), H. croceus (on 8 oaks), and I. dryophila.

Considerations and consequences of allowing DNA sequence data as types of fungal taxa
- 2018
-
In: IMA Fungus. - : INT MYCOLOGICAL ASSOC. - 2210-6340 .- 2210-6359. ; 9:1, s. 167-185

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Nomenclatural type definitions are one of the most important concepts in biological nomenclature. Being physical objects that can be re-studied by other researchers, types permanently link taxonomy (an artificial agreement to classify biological diversity) with nomenclature (an artificial agreement to name biological diversity). Two proposals to amend the International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants (ICN), allowing DNA sequences alone (of any region and extent) to serve as types of taxon names for voucherless fungi (mainly putative taxa from environmental DNA sequences), have been submitted to be voted on at the 11th International Mycological Congress (Puerto Rico, July 2018). We consider various genetic processes affecting the distribution of alleles among taxa and find that alleles may not consistently and uniquely represent the species within which they are contained. Should the proposals be accepted, the meaning of nomenclatural types would change in a fundamental way from physical objects as sources of data to the data themselves. Such changes are conducive to irreproducible science, the potential typification on artefactual data, and massive creation of names with low information content, ultimately causing nomenclatural instability and unnecessary work for future researchers that would stall future explorations of fungal diversity. We conclude that the acceptance of DNA sequences alone as types of names of taxa, under the terms used in the current proposals, is unnecessary and would not solve the problem of naming putative taxa known only from DNA sequences in a scientifically defensible way. As an alternative, we highlight the use of formulas for naming putative taxa (candidate taxa) that do not require any modification of the ICN.
