Ganoderma Incrassatum
''Ganoderma'' is a genus of polypore fungi in the family Ganodermataceae that includes about 80 species, many from tropical regions. They may be called ''shelf mushrooms'' or bracket fungus, bracket fungi and have a high genetic diversity. ''Ganoderma'' can be differentiated from other polypores because they have a double-walled basidiospore. They are used in traditional Asian medicine. Description ''Ganoderma'' are characterized by basidiocarps, which are large, perennial, woody brackets also called "conk (fungus), conks". They are Wood-decay fungus, lignicolous and coriaceous, leathery either with or without a stem. The fruit bodies typically grow in a fan-like or hoof-like form on the trunks of living or dead trees. They have double-walled, truncate spores with yellow to brown ornamented inner layers. Taxonomy Taxonomic history The genus ''Ganoderma'' was established as a genus in 1881 by Karsten and included only one species, ''G. lucidum'' (Curtis) Karst. Previ ...

Ganoderma Applanatum
''Ganoderma applanatum'' (the artist's bracket, artist's conk, artist's fungus or bear bread) is a bracket fungus with a cosmopolitan distribution. Description ''Ganoderma applanatum'' is parasitic and saprophytic, and grows as a mycelium within the wood of living and dead trees. It grows in single, scattered, or compound formations. It forms fruiting bodies that are wide, long and thick, hard as leather, and woody-textured. The upper surface of the fruiting body appears brown, covered with reddish-brown conidia. The underside is white but stains brown. The fruiting bodies are perennial, and may persist for multiple years, increasing in size and forming new layers of pores as they grow. These layers can be distinguished in a cross section or from observation of the concentric rings on the upper surface of the fruiting body. This allows the fruiting body's age to be determined using the same method as tree rings. Brown Basidiospore, spores are released from the pores on the ...

Ganoderma Oregonense
''Ganoderma oregonense'' (also known as the west-coast reishi, western varnished conk, lacquer fungus, and/or American ling-chi) is a species of bracket fungus that causes root and butt white rot in conifers in northwestern coastal North America. Taxonomy This species was originally described by W. A. Murrill as: Pileus reniform, corky, rigid, convex above, plane below, 10 x 17 x 5 cm; surface glabrous, thinly encrusted, smooth, laccate, very lustrous, bay to black, with a deep groove near the margin, which is cream-colored, rounded, smooth, entire, finely tomentose; context punky, white to slightly discolored, homogeneous, with white lines of mycelium near the stipe, 2-3.5 cm. thick; tubes annual, 1 cm. long, avellaneous within, mouths circular to angular, 3 to a mm., edges thin, entire, white to avellaneous; stipe lateral, very thick, short, subcylindric, 2-4 cm long, 3-6 cm. thick, expanding into the pileus, which it resembles in color, surface, and context. ...

Ganoderma Orbiforme
''Ganoderma orbiforme'' most commonly known as ''G. boninense'' or just ''Ganoderma'' in oil palm pathology is a species of polypore fungus that is widespread across southeast Asia. It is a plant pathogen that causes basal stem rot, a disease of the African oil palm (''Elaeis guineensis''). The fungus was first described scientifically in 1838 by Elias Magnus Fries from collections made in Guinea. Leif Ryvarden transferred it to the genus ''Ganoderma'' in 2000. In addition to its type locality, the fungus has also been collected from the Bonin Islands in the Pacific, and from Venezuela and Puerto Rico. Transmission ''G. orbiforme'' is not a soil borne pathogen, meaning it does not grow in soil and does not infiltrate from soil and into the root system. It is however also not killed by soil, and will reside in dead, buried palm trunk material. This has especially been observed when ''Oryctes rhinoceros''-infested material was buried. Infection ''G. orbiforme'' has a hemibiotr ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Ganoderma Multipileum
''Ganoderma multipileum'', commonly known as lingzhi or chizhi, is a species of polypore mushroom. Formerly known as ''Ganoderma lucidum'', phylogenetic analyses published in 2009 revealed that ''G. lucidum'' is primarily a European species, and that the name has been incorrectly applied to Asian collections. ''G. multipileum'' is found in tropical Asia. It has been used as a medicinal mushroom for over 2,000 years.

Ganoderma Microsporum
''Ganoderma microsporum'' is a species of ''Ganoderma'' mushroom native to Taiwan that grows on willow trees.
