The name Trichosporonoides oedocephalis n. gen., n. sp. is given to a fungus which forms true mycelium, pseudomycelium, arthrospores, and budding cells as does Trichosporon Behrend, but which also produces conidiospores on the swollen tips of aseptate sporophores which may or may not be aerial. The organism is described and illustrated.

The corticioid basidiomycete Jaapia ochroleuca (Bres.) Nannf. et J. Erikss. is recorded for the first time in the European Russia from the «Bryansky Les» Nature Reserve (Bryansk Region). The taxonomic position of the species is defined briefly. Its morphological description and data on distribution and ecology are provided. The details of microscopic structure of the collected specimen are illustrated.

Plant-based meat analogues that mimic the characteristic structure and texture of meat are becoming increasingly popular. They can be produced by means of high moisture extrusion (HME), in which protein-rich raw materials are subjected to thermomechanical stresses in the extruder at high water content (>40%) and then forced through a cooling die. The cooling die, or generally the die section, is known to have a large influence on the products’ anisotropic structures, which are determined by the morphology of the underlying multi-phase system. However, the morphology development in the process and its relationship with the flow characteristics are not yet well understood and, therefore, investigated in this work. The results show that the underlying multi-phase system is already present in the screw section of the extruder. The morphology development mainly takes place in the tapered transition zone and the non-cooled zone, while the cooled zone only has a minor influence. The cross-sectional contraction and the cooling generate elongational flows and tensile stresses in the die section, whereas the highest tensile stresses are generated in the transition zone and are assumed to be the main factor for structure formation. Cooling also has an influence on the velocity gradients and, therefore, the shear stresses; the highest shear stresses are generated towards the die exit. The results further show that morphology development in the die section is mainly governed by deformation and orientation, while the breakup of phases appears to play a minor role. The size of the dispersed phase, i.e., size of individual particles, is presumably determined in the screw section and then stays the same over the die length. Overall, this study reveals that morphology development and flow characteristics need to be understood and controlled for a successful product design in HME, which, in turn, could be achieved by a targeted design of the extruders die section.

Thirty-one species of fungi (representing 13 orders) were examined for their ability to grow from a nutrient medium onto a non-nutrient medium; 17 were capable of colonizing the deficient medium, 10 were not, and 4 were indeterminate. The ability to grow onto deficient medium appeared to be related to the natural habitat of the fungus rather than to taxonomic position. Experiments with isotopically labelled nutrients showed that both colonizing fungi and non-colonizing fungi were capable of some transport of nutrients, the difference between the two groups being one of degree. In transporting fungi, labelled nutrients were moved more rapidly when the fungus colonized a deficient medium than when it colonized a nutrient medium; this suggested that movement of nutrients is adaptive to some extent. The importance of the growing hyphal apex as a sink for nutrients was demonstrated.
