Pyrofomes
''Pyrofomes'' is a genus of fungi in the family Polyporaceae. The genus was circumscription (taxonomy), circumscribed by Czech mycologists FrantiĊĦek Kotlaba and Zdenek Pouzar in 1964. The type species, ''Pyrofomes demidoffii'', was once considered a widespread species with a distribution that included East Africa, Middle Asia, Europe, and North America. Molecular phylogenetics, DNA evidence demonstrated that North American collections represented a lineage that was different than European collections. The North American sibling was reinstated as ''Pyrofomes juniperinus, P. juniperinus'' in 2017. Ecological roles of ''Pyrofomes'' ''Pyrofomes'', a type of brown rot fungi, plays a crucial role in forest ecosystems by decomposing persistent lignin, releasing trapped nutrients to fuel new plant growth (Assefa & Abate, 2020). Without the activity of lignin decomposers like ''Pyrofomes'', an essential aspect of the nutrient cycle would be hindered, potentially reducing ecosystem ...
