    Abstract L'usage récréatif des champignons hallucinogènes est maintenant bien établi, en Europe et en Amérique du Nord. En Amérique Centrale, ils sont également utilisés dans un but spirituel et religieux. Les principes actifs à noyau indolique sont la psilocine et la psilocybine. Le syndrome hallucinogène causé par quelques milligrammes de psilocybine est très classique, avec dépersonnalisation, euphorie et dysphorie. Le traitement est symptomatique. La liste des espèces concernées et leur répartition sur les deux continents sont constamment révisées de manière critique par les mycologues, et nous en présentons l'état actuel. Le genre Psilocybe est le plus important, suivi par le genre Panaeolus. Le nombre d'espèces potentiellement hallucinogènes avoisine 150 et nous en présentons une liste extensive s'appuyant sur 280 références bibliographiques. Les cas prouvés d'intoxication chez l'homme restent cependant très rares et le diagnostic est essentiellement clinique. La mise en évidence et le dosage de la psilocine dans le sang et l'urine sont maintenant parfaitement réalisables par des méthodes de chromatographie liquide et de chromatographie gazeuse couplée à un détecteur de masse. Les quelques cas décrits dans la littérature indiquent, pour la psilocine, des limites de quantification de l'ordre de 5 ng/mL dans l'urine. La détection dans l'urine peut se faire pendant les 2 ou 3 jours suivants une ingestion de champignons, et les prélèvements biologiques doivent être absolument protégés de l'oxydation. The recreational use of Fungi is now well established, in Europe and in North America as well. In Central America, they are also in use but mainly for spiritual and religious purpose. The indolic active molecules are psilocin and psilocybin. The hallucinogenic syndrome, induced by a few milligrams of psilocybin is very well known, with loss of personality, euphoria and dysphoria. The treatment is symptomatic. The list of involved species and their distribution on both continents are constantly critically revised by mycologists and we present their current state. The genus Psilocybe is predominant, followed by the genus Panaeolus. The number of hallucinogenic species may be around 150 and we present here an extended list, based on 280 scientific references. Nevertheless the number of attested cases of human poisoning remain very low and the diagnostic is mainly clinical. Testing and dosing psilocybin in blood and urine may now be achieved using liquid chromatography methods or gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. For psilocybin the few cases reported in scientific literature show limits of quantification about 5 ng/mL in urine. Detection in urine must be processed during the 2 or 3 days after ingestion of the fungi and biological samples must be strictly protected from oxidation.

    Abstract 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 north-temperate 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.

    Abstract Oxygenated lanostane-type triterpenes (OLTT), including ganoderic acids and lucidenic acids produced by fungi of the genus Ganoderma (Polyporales), are abundantly documented for their potential pharmacological value. In order to test the correlation between species identity and OLTT composition, methanolic extracts of seven laccate Ganoderma species were analyzed by liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry. OLTT profiles of each species were compared to a phylogenetic reconstruction of Ganoderma based on ITS rDNA sequences. The results suggest a high specificity in OLTT composition in one of the phylogenetic lineages of Ganoderma that encompasses tropical species, when no OLTT compound was detected in other lineages (including the European G. lucidum and the Asian G. sinense). Within the OLTT-positive lineage, G. sichuanense, G. martinicense, and G. tuberculosum (Asian-tropicum clade) were characterized by a specific composition in ganoderic acids and G. curtisii by a variety of lucidenic acids. An unidentified OLTT was found in G. resinaceum, also equivocally positioned in phylogenetic analyses. These results confirm OLTT as a suitable taxonomic marker in a lineage of pharmacologically and economically valuable species. Correlations with phylogeny, and development of OLTT composition as a fingerprint tool for quality control, could be an issue to address next, based on a more complete species sampling.

    Abstract Fungal biotechnology is set to play a keystone role in the emerging bioeconomy, notably to address pollution issues arising from human activities. Because they preserve biological diversity, Biological Resource Centres are considered as critical infrastructures to support the development of biotechnological solutions. Here, we report the first large-scale phenotyping of more than 1,000 fungal strains with evaluation of their growth and degradation potential towards five industrial, human-designed and recalcitrant compounds, including two synthetic dyes, two lignocellulose-derived compounds and a synthetic plastic polymer. We draw a functional map over the phylogenetic diversity of Basidiomycota and Ascomycota, to guide the selection of fungal taxa to be tested for dedicated biotechnological applications. We evidence a functional diversity at all taxonomic ranks, including between strains of a same species. Beyond demonstrating the tremendous potential of filamentous fungi, our results pave the avenue for further functional exploration to solve the ever-growing issue of ecosystems pollution.

    Abstract Applying early names, with or without original material, to genealogical species is challenging. For morels this task is especially difficult because of high morphological stasis and high plasticity of apothecium color and shape. Here we propose a nomenclatural revision of true morels (Morchella, Pezizales) from Europe and North America, based on molecular phylogenetic analyses of portions of the genes for RNA polymerase II largest subunit (RPB1) and second largest subunit (RPB2), translation elongation factor-1α (TEF1), the nuc rDNA region encompassing the internal transcribed spacers 1 and 2, along with the 5.8S rDNA (ITS), and partial nuc 28S rDNA D1-D2 domains (28S). The 107 newly sequenced collections were from both continents, including 48 types, together with previously published sequences. Names are applied to 30 of the 65 currently recognized genealogical species. Results of the present study revealed that the number of Morchella species in Europe (n = 21) is nearly identical to that in North America (n = 22). Only seven species were found on both continents, consistent with previous reports of high continental endemism within the genus. Presently it is not possible to tell whether the transoceanic disjunctions were due to human activities, migration across a Bering land bridge or long-distance dispersal. In an effort to stabilize the taxonomy, due in part to the recent publication of synonyms for 11 of the species, accepted names are presented together with their corresponding later synonyms. A new subclade that includes holotypes of M. castanea and M. brunneorosea is identified in sect. Morchella (Esculenta Clade). Lectotypes for Morchella deliciosa, M. eximia and M. tridentina are designated here, as well as epitypes for M. dunalii, M. eximia, M. purpurascens and M. vulgaris. Morchella conica was determined to be illegitimate, and further research is required to determine the identity of M. elata and M. inamoena.

    Abstract True morels (Morchella) are among the most highly prized and easily recognized edible mushrooms collected during spring throughout the Northern Hemisphere. To help ensure that commercial harvests are sustainable and species diversity is preserved, management practices and conservation policies need to be informed by genetic diversity studies that critically assess each species native range and geographic distribution. This study was conducted to extend our previously published research findings that surprisingly revealed that three genetically distinct species of half-free morels exist. The half-free species in Europe, which is typically reported as M. semilibera, is phylogenetically distinct but morphologically similar to half-free morel species within Eastern (i.e., M. punctipes) and Western North America (i.e., M. populiphila). We discovered in this study that three older names (i.e., Morchella crassipes, M. gigas, and M. undosa) have been applied to M. semilibera, although rarely during the past century. In this paper we argue that M. semilibera should be conserved over the three older names because they have only rarely been applied to the half-free morel in Europe. The focus of this study was to help ensure that only one scientific name be accepted for the half-free morel in Europe, which should help communication within the global scientific community of conservation biologists, foresters, and agricultural scientists.

    Abstract Epigeous saprotrophic and ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungal sporocarps were assessed during 7yr in a French temperate experimental forest site with six 30-year-old mono-specific plantations (four coniferous and two hardwood plantations) and one 150-year-old native mixed deciduous forest. A total of 331 fungal species were identified. Half of the fungal species were ECM, but this proportion varied slightly by forest composition. The replacement of the native forest by mono-specific plantations, including native species such as beech and oak, considerably altered the diversity of epigeous ECM and saprotrophic fungi. Among the six mono-specific stands, fungal diversity was the highest in Nordmann fir and Norway spruce plantations and the lowest in Corsican pine and Douglas fir plantations. Several factors, connected to the mono-specificity of host trees, could be involved in regulating fungal diversity. Interestingly, this study showed a significant negative correlation between fungal species richness and nitrogen mineralisation, indicating that increases in mineral N availability are associated with decline in saprotrophic and ECM community richness. The frequency of occurrence of fruit bodies of 11 edible fungal species that naturally occur in the native forest was modified by the treatments.
