Seasonality affects the community of endophytic fungi in coconut (Cocos nucifer...
Oliveira,Rafael José Vilela de; Sousa,Natalia Mirelly Ferreira de; Pinto Neto,Walter de Paula; Bezerra,José Luiz; Silva,Gladstone Alves daABSTRACT The diversity of endophytic fungi in healthy coconut palm leaves (Cocos nucifera) was assessed by analyzing fungal isolates from three coconut cultivars (yellow dwarf, green dwarf, and a hybrid cultivar PB121) used agriculturally in Brazil. The influence of season (rainy or dry) on the endophytic fungal community was also analyzed. Overall, 318 fungal isolates were obtained from 972 coconut leaf fragme...
Application of Chinese Jun-Cao technique for the production of Brazilian Ganode...
Rolim,Leonardo do Nascimento; Sales-Campos,Ceci; Cavalcanti,Maria Auxiliadora de Queiroz; Urben,Arailde FontesGanoderma lucidum is a medicinal mushroom traditionally used in China against a wide range of diseases such as cancer and also for its prevention. In this work, commercial Chinese strains G. lucidum were compared to wild Brazilian strains aiming to determine the cultivation potential through the use of Jun-Cao. Six formulations were tested and the strains presented good response to the applied method. In genera...
Taxonomic studies of Amanita muscaria (L.) Lam (Amanitaceae, Agaricomycetes) an...
Wartchow,Felipe; Maia,Leonor Costa; Cavalcanti,Maria Auxiliadora de QueirozWe analyzed specimens identified as Amanita muscaria, some recently collected and others already deposited in herbaria, in Brazil. We concluded that two subspecies of A. muscaria occur in Brazil: A. muscaria var. muscaria; and A.muscaria var. flavivolvata. The first taxon was found in association with Castanea sativa, and the second (one specimen only) was found in association with Pinus and Eucalyptus spp. Mor...
Phosphate-solubilizing fungi isolated from a semiarid area cultivated with melo...
Coutinho,Flavia Paiva; Cavalcanti,Maria Auxiliadora de Queiroz; Yano-Melo,Adriana MayumiConsidering that little is known about the occurrence of phosphate-solubilizing fungi from areas cultivated with melon, the phosphate solubilization ability of filamentous fungi isolated in these areas was evaluated. Three hundred and eighteen filamentous fungal isolates belonging to 23 genera were evaluated, besides Aphyllophorales and Mycelia sterilia. From those, 52 were able to solubilize P: Aphyllophorales...
Zygomycetes from herbivore dung in the ecological reserve of Dois Irmãos, North...
Santiago,André Luiz Cabral Monteiro de Azevedo; Trufem,Sandra Farto Botelho; Malosso,Elaine; Santos,Paulo Jorge Parreira dosThirty-eight taxa of Zygomycetes distributed in 15 genera were recorded from tapir (Tapirus terrestris), camel (Camelus bactrianus), horse (Equus caballus), deer (Cervus elaphus), agouti (Dasyprocta aguti), donkey (Equus asinus), llama (Llama glama) and waterbuck (Kobus ellipsiprymnus) dung collected at the Reserva Ecológica de Dois Irmãos located in Recife, State of Pernambuco, Northeast Brazil. The samples we...
Filamentous fungi isolated from Candeias Beach, Pernambuco, Brazil
Oliveira,Luciana Gonçalves de; Cavalcanti,Maria Auxiliadora de Queiroz; Passavante,José Zanon de Oliveira; Fernandes,Maria José dos SantosThe main purpose of this study was the isolation and identification of the filamentous mycobiota present on soil and water samples from Candeias Beach, Pernambuco, Brazil. Sampling of soil and water was carried out four times at three randomly chosen spots along the beach, during the rainy and dry seasons, during the low tide. From each soil sample, a suspension was prepared with 50 g of soil diluted in 90 mL o...
Filamentous fungi isolated from the rhizosphere of melon plants (Cucumis melo L...
Coutinho,Flavia Paiva; Cavalcanti,Maria Auxiliadora de Queiroz; Yano-Melo,Adriana MayumiRhizosphere soil samples were collected in a semiarid area, in the region of the São Francisco River valley, Petrolina, Pernambuco state, Brazil, to study the diversity of filamentous fungi in a soil cultivated with melon (Cucumis melo L. cv. Gold Mine) and receiving different organic amendments: Treatment 1 (control, without organic compost); T2 (77% coconut fiber, 20% goat manure and 3% K2SO4); T3 (10% Ricinu...
Agaricaceae Fr. (Agaricales, Basidiomycota) from areas of Atlantic Forest in Pe...
Wartchow,Felipe; Putzke,Jair; Cavalcanti,Maria Auxiliadora de QueirozThe survey of Agaricaceae in areas of the Atlantic Forest in the metropolitan region of Recife, state of Pernambuco, Brazil, revealed the presence of nine species: Agaricus aff. parasilvaticus Heinem., A. purpurellus (F.H. Møller) F.H. Møller, A. rufoaurantiacus Heinem., Leucoagaricus sulphurellus (Pegler) B.P. Akers, Leucocoprinus cretaceus (Bull.: Fr.) Locq., L. fragilissimus (Ravenel) Pat., Lepiota elaiophyl...
Fungos filamentosos isolados do solo em municípios na região Xingó, Brasil
Cavalcanti,Maria Auxiliadora de Queiroz; Oliveira,Luciana Gonçalves de; Fernandes,Maria José; Lima,Débora MassaO solo é considerado um dos principais hábitats para a população de microrganismos, dentre os quais estão os fungos. A região de Xingó é caracterizada por apresentar ecossistema típico de Caatinga. Com objetivo de isolar e identificar fungos filamentosos na região Xingó, utilizou-se amostras de solo coletadas nos municípios de Canindé de São Francisco (SE), Olho D'água do Casado (AL) e Piranhas (AL), durante o ...
Yeasts isolated from sand and sea water in beaches of Olinda, Pernambuco state,...
Loureiro,Silvia Tereza Azedo; Cavalcanti,Maria Auxiliadora de Queiroz; Neves,Rejane Pereira; Passavante,José Zanon de OliveiraThe aim of this work was to isolate and identify yeasts from sand and sea water collected in two beaches of Olinda, Pernambuco state, Brazil. Thirty two samples of both sand and water in both beaches were obtained in the dry (December 2000 and February 2001) and rainy (June and July 2001) seasons. Two hundred and ninety two strains of yeast were obtained, and they belonged to four genera and 31 species. Candida...
