    Macrofungi of İzmir province
    (1999) Solak M.H.; Işiloǧlu M.; Gücin F.; Gökler I.
    This investigation was done basing on the macrofungi specimens collected from Izmir province situated in Eagean Region in the West Anatolia between 1992 and 1996. As a result of the studing of laboratory and field, 104 taxa belonging to 32 families were determined. One genus (Lyophyllum Karst.), 8 species (Clitocybe bresadoliana Sing., Cystoderma granulosum (Batsch: Fr.) Fay., Lyophyllum favrei Haller & Haller., Melanoleuca paedida (Fr.) Kühn. & Mre., Mycena rosea (Bull.) Gramberg., Stereum ostrea (Blume & Nees ex Fr.) Fr., Strobilurus stephanocystis (Hora) Sing., Tricholoma pardalotum Herink & Kotl.), and 1 variety (Melanoleuca cognata var. typica (Fr.) Konr. & Moubl.) from these taxa are new records for Turkish Mycoflora. All taxa were listed here in.

    Antimicrobial activity of two wild mushrooms Clitocybe alexandri (Gill.) Konr. and Rhizopogon roseolus (Corda) T.M. Fries collected from Turkey
    (2006) Solak M.H.; Kalmis E.; Saglam H.; Kalyoncu F.
    Two edible wild mushrooms, namely Clitocybe alexandri (Gill.) Konr. (Tricholomataceae) and Rhizopogon roseolus (Corda) T.M. Fries (Rhizopogonaceae), collected from the southwest of Turkey, were tested for their antimicrobial activity by using the disc diffusion method. The ethanol, methanol, diethyl ether, water, ethylacetate and n-hexane extracts from the fruit bodies of mushrooms were assayed against 13 microorganisms. In comparison with the test antibiotics penicillin, novobiocin, nalidixic acid and ampicillin, the methanol extract obtained from the two mushrooms presented significant activity against E. coli, Bacillus subtilis and Enterobacter aerogenes. On the other hand, the ethylacetate extract from C. alexandri was found to be active against Candida albicans and Saccharomyces cerevisiae, whereas the ethanol extract of Rhizopogon roseolus was active against Saccharomyces cerevisiae. This research has shown that various extracts obtained from two macrofungi could be used in vitro to inhibit the growth of some important bacteria and fungi. Copyright © 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Chemical composition of four wild edible mushroom species collected from southwest anatolia
    (Gazi Universitesi, 2010) Kalyoncu F.; Ergönül B.; Yildiz H.; Kalmiş E.; Solak M.H.
    Four different species of wild edible mushrooms (Armillaria mellea, Infundibulicybe geotropa, Meripilus giganteus and Sparassis crispa) representing four different families (Physalacriaceae, Tricholomataceae, Meripilaceae and Sparassidaceae) growing in southwest regions of Anatolia were analyzed for their Fe, Na, K, Zn, Cu, Cd and Pb contents and ash, dry matter, protein, and fat levels. All mineral concentrations were determined on a dry weight basis (d.w.). The mineral content of mushroom samples ranged from 54.00 to 112.33 μg/ g d.w. for Fe, 66.50 to 117.33 μg/ g d.w. for Na, 32.33 to 117.00 μg/ g d.w. for K, 47.40 to 87.40 μg/ g d.w. for Zn, 54.30 to 74.67 μg/ g d.w. for Cu and not detected for Cd and Pb. Na content was higher than other minerals in all mushroom species. This research proves that wild edible fungi can be used in wellbalanced diets due to their nutritive values. Also, their heavy metal contents (Pb, Cd) shows that collection areas are not polluted, therefore all collected mushroom species can be unreservedly consumed without any health risk.

    Chemical composition and nutritional value of a wild edible ectomycorrhizal mushroom, Tricholoma anatolicum; [Yenilebilir yabani ektomikorizal bir makrofungus olan Tricholoma anatolicum'un kimyasal kompozisyonu ve besinsel deǧeri]
    (2011) Kalmiş E.; Yildiz H.; Ergönül B.; Kalyoncu F.; Solak M.H.
    The chemical composition and nutritional value of a wild edible ectomycorrhizal mushroom from southwestern Anatolia, Tricholoma anatolicum, were analyzed. Moisture, crude oil, protein, ash, total carbohydrate content, and mineral composition of the mushrooms studied, including Fe, Na, K, Zn, Cu, Ca, Cd, and Pb, were determined. The energy values of the samples were also calculated. The analyses were conducted during the 3 different growing stages of the mushrooms: mycelium, young fruiting bodies, and mature fruiting bodies. The highest values for moisture and crude oil contents were found to be in the mycelium, ash, and carbohydrate content of young fruiting bodies. In addition, Na content was found to be the highest in mycelium. The highest values for Fe were found in the young fruiting bodies, and K, Zn, Cu, and Ca were at their highest values in mature bodies. None of the samples contained heavy metals Cd or Pb. ©TÜBİTAK.
