Molecular Phylogenetic

Phylogenetic relationships in the genus Cortinarius with emphasis on European species were studied by integrating a molecular phylogenetic analysis of nuclear rDNA sequences with morphological, chemical, and ecological data. Internal transcribed spacers (ITS1 and ITS2, including 5.8S) and the D1–D2 regions of nuclear rDNA of 262 Cortinarius species including most of the recognised subgenera from Europe, South America, Australia, Tasmania, New Zealand, and Asia were sequenced and analysed by maximum likelihood and neighbour joining. Our morphological and molecular analyses showed considerable disagreement with earlier morphology-based hypotheses concerning the infrageneric delimitations in Cortinarius. We propose a new base for a more natural classification system in Cortinarius involving the taxonomic rearrangement of the species into the following major lineages that we informally designate as “clades” at this time: (1) phlegmacioid species are included in Alluti, Amarescentes, Arguti, Calochroi, Caerulescentes, Percomes, Phlegmacioides, Phlegmacium, Purpurascentes, Scauri, and Vulpini; (2) the Heterocliti clade includes species of the subgenera Leprocybe and Cystogenes ; (3) most of the Myxacium species are included in the Delibuti and Myxacium clades; (4) part of Rozites are included in the Rozites clade; (5) the north-hemispheric species of subgenus Dermocybe are included in the Dermocybe clade and part of the south-hemispheric species in the Splendidi clade; (6) part of Sericeocybe are integrated in the Anomali and Telamonia clades; (7) members of subgenus Cortinarius are assigned to the Cortinarius clade; (8) telamonioid taxa are included in the Obtusi, Renidentes, and Telamonia clades. Several Cortinarius species with peculiar patterns of morphology and basidiome coloration had isolated positions in the sequence analysis, and the evolutionary relationships among the major lineages remained unresolved. Our results suggest the convergent evolution of certain morphological traits across phylogenetically divergent lineages in Cortinarius. However, combinations of features such as pileipellis anatomy, spore shape, veil coloration, basidiome pigments, and stipe shape appear useful to circumscribe clades. Our molecular phylogenetic analysis allows insights in global geographical patterns of species distribution within the major lineages in the genus Cortinarius. The clade structure proposed here could be used as backbone for further more detailed systematic studies.

Inducible Genes

Androgen-inducible genes (AIGs), which can be regulated by androgen level, constitute a group of genes characterized by the presence of the AIG/FAR-17a domain in its protein sequence. Previous studies on AIGs demonstrated that one member of the gene family, AIG1, is involved in many biological processes in cancer cell lines and that ADTRP is associated with cardiovascular diseases. It has been shown that the numbers of AIG paralogs in humans, mice, and zebrafish are 2, 2, and 3, respectively, indicating possible gene duplication events during vertebrate evolution. Therefore, classifying subgroups of AIGs and identifying the homologs of each AIG member are important to characterize this novel gene family further. In this study, vertebrate AIGs were phylogenetically grouped into three major clades, ADTRP, AIG1, and AIG-L, with AIG-L also evident in an outgroup consisting of invertebrsate species. In this case, AIG-L, as the ancestral AIG, gave rise to ADTRP and AIG1 after two rounds of whole-genome duplications during vertebrate evolution. Then, the AIG family, which was exposed to purifying forces during evolution, lost or gained some of its members in some species. For example, in eutherians, Neognathae, and Percomorphaceae, AIG-L was lost; in contrast, Salmonidae and Cyprinidae acquired additional AIG copies. In conclusion, this study provides a comprehensive molecular phylogenetic analysis of vertebrate AIGs, which can be employed for future functional characterization of AIGs.

A New Species

Pilaira australis, a new species of fungus in the coprophilous genus Pilaira, was isolated from emu (Dromaius novaehollandiae) faeces and is described. Morphologically, the species resembles other species in the genus, particularly P. moreaui, except differs in its unique combination of sporangiophore height and sporangiospore length. Molecular phylogenetic analysis indicates that P. australis is distinct from other species in the genus with two regions, the internal transcribed spacers (ITS) and a fragment of the pyrG gene, showing 91% and 90% identity to the nearest species, respectively. Ultrastructure features and carbon utilisation were determined for P. australis, and may provide characteristics for species identification in this genus.
