Abstract

Advancements in fungal taxonomy have been significantly enhanced by multilocus phylogenetic analyses, which improve the precision of species identification. This study also employs such methods to investigate the genus Conocybe, resulting in the description of three novel species, viz. C. hasiluprensis and C. sultanii belonging to the section Pilosellae and C. ferruginae of section Conocybe, from southern Punjab, Pakistan. Field collections yielded specimens that were examined morphologically and genetically, using a multilocus phylogenetic analysis utilizing sequences from the ITS, 28S, and TEF1-α regions. A combined phylogenetic tree was constructed through maximum likelihood and Bayesian inference methods, revealing three novel taxa occupying their respective distinct branches. Further, morphological analysis complemented the genetic data, with each species displaying unique characteristics. This study not only adds to the fungal biodiversity of Pakistan but also provides a robust framework for future taxonomic and ecological research in the region. In addition, we provide a key to the known species of Conocybe in Pakistan.

多位点系统发育有助于对巴基斯坦旁遮普南部三种新属的真菌分类。
多位点系统发育分析极大地促进了真菌分类学的进步,提高了物种鉴定的精度。本研究也采用这种方法对Conocybe属进行了调查,结果描述了巴基斯坦旁遮普省南部的三个新种,即C. hasiluprensis和C. sultanii属于piloselae科,C. ferruginae属于Conocybe科。利用ITS、28S和TEF1-α区域的序列进行多位点系统发育分析,对现场采集的标本进行形态学和遗传学检查。通过最大似然和贝叶斯推理方法构建了一个组合的系统发育树,揭示了三个新的类群占据各自不同的分支。此外,形态分析补充了遗传数据,每个物种都表现出独特的特征。这项研究不仅增加了巴基斯坦真菌的生物多样性,而且为该地区未来的分类学和生态学研究提供了一个强有力的框架。此外,我们还提供了巴基斯坦已知的Conocybe物种的钥匙。

期刊介绍: International in coverage, Mycologia presents recent advances in mycology, emphasizing all aspects of the biology of Fungi and fungus-like organisms, including Lichens, Oomycetes and Slime Molds. The Journal emphasizes subjects including applied biology, biochemistry, cell biology, development, ecology, evolution, genetics, genomics, molecular biology, morphology, new techniques, animal or plant pathology, phylogenetics, physiology, aspects of secondary metabolism, systematics, and ultrastructure. In addition to research articles, reviews and short notes, Mycologia also includes invited papers based on presentations from the Annual Conference of the Mycological Society of America, such as Karling Lectures or Presidential Addresses.
