INFECTIOUS DISEASE PART FIVE: MYCOLOGY SHQIP - ALBANIAN SEARCH VIDEO LECTURES Fungi are eukaryotic organisms that do not contain chlorophyll, but have cell walls, filamentous structures, and produce spores. These organisms grow as saprophytes and decompose dead organic matter. There are between 100,000 to 200,000 species depending on how they are classified. About 300 species are presently known to be pathogenic for man. There are four types of mycotic diseases: 1. Hypersensitivity - an allergic reaction to molds and spores. 2. Mycotoxicoses - poisoning of man and animals by feeds and food products contaminated by fungi which produce toxins from the grain substrate. 3. Mycetismus- the ingestion of preformed toxin (mushroom poisoning). 4. Infection In this section, we shall be concerned only with the last type.

Mycology: The Study of Fungi Fungi are living things that are one of the five classification systems of organisms. The study of fungi is called mycology. Mycologists look at different types of fungus and categorize them in various specifications, such as those that are helpful and those that cause disease. Mycologists also discover ways to get rid of harmful fungi that have infected people or taken over space; they determine the living conditions to grow fungi; and they look for new uses of fungi to help people. Fungi do not have any way of making their own food, as plants do. In order to continue growing, they then must find a source to get their nutrients. They can grow well in dark places and do not need light as a source of life. Many types of fungi are similar to plants in appearance, but there are also many that do not resemble plants at all. For example, the mushroom is a common fungus that many people think of. Mushrooms look a little bit like plants but they must grow in an area where they can take in food from another source. The source of food can come from almost anywhere. Some fungus, such as mold, grows on surfaces, or is found in food. Another type of fungus, yeast, grows in food by consuming sugar or other nutrients. There have been over 200,000 types of fungi that have been identified and classified, and there are many more that are yet to be discovered. Fungus is found everywhere and serves many interesting purposes. Truffles are considered a delicacy and are dug from the ground in parts of Europe, bringing a very high price for those who want to eat them. Some fungi work naturally in the environment to decompose organic matter, providing people with composting sites and reducing leaves and waste. There are even types of fungi used in ancient Eastern medicines that treat various ailments; their healing properties are so effective they are considered magical.

Skip Navigation Contents Plant Interactions Introduction Mycorrhizas Endophytes Introduction ... Plant Pathology Endophytes Introduction A wide diversity of fungi are isolated from the tissues of most terrestrial and aquatic plants, and red and brown algae. Fungi are present in most plant parts, especially the leaves. Where the tissue is apparently healthy, the fungi may be either endophytes, epiphytes or latent pathogens. Endophytes are contained within the plant without disease. Plant tissues remain entire and functional. Endophytic Fungi Fungi growing on Banksia leaf. Endophytes colonise plant tissue and remain within the tissue, except that fruiting structures may emerge through the surface of the plant tissue. Indeed, leaves may be colonised by a variety of fungi within a few weeks of leaf emergence. The colonies remain asymptomatic and some in perennial plant parts may have a very long life. Endophytic fungi are found in all divisions of fungi so have presumably evolved the association independently on many occasions. The most common endophytes are anamorphic members of the Ascomycota, and they are often closely related to fungi known to cause disease in plant or animal. Phylogenetic evidence is used to suggest that some endophytes have evolved from pathogens and for others, vice versa. The mechanisms of host recognition and development of colonisation may also be common among closely related endophytic and pathogenic fungi.

We are a group of amateur mycologists and mushroom enthusiasts committed to the study of fungi for both knowledge and for the table. As an organization we host monthly meetings with lectures by experts in the field and regularly host forays to collect and catalog fungi of the greater Chicago area. Beyond personal interests, we seek to educate the general public about the ecological importance, and how the benefits of fungi greatly outweigh the risks. We believe that a little knowledge goes a long way to dispelling common misconceptions about these magnificent organisms. Please consider joining us as yearly memberships are inexpensive. Members receive monthly newsletters that include everything from meeting and foray information to the latest mushroom recipes.

photo by Maggie Whitson, Duke University M ushrooms of N orth C arolina The fungi shown on these pages may be found in the forests of central and coastal North Carolina. The photos and collections were made during the fall of 1995 as part of a class assignment for Introductory Mycology (Bot 220, taught by R. Vilgalys) at Duke University. Students were required to prepare a collection of 50 specimens representing a cross section of mushroom diversity from North Carolina, with notes and photos. The best student photos were selected for this homepage. Many of the specimens shown on these photos were collected during field trips to several interesting habitats in North Carolina, including the piedmont, sandhills, and coastal forest regions.
