Basidiomes of homothallicArmillaria mellea complex were discovered in the forests of Hokkaido. Their monosporous isolates showed partial compatibility with North AmericanA. mellea s. str. haploid testers. The morphological characteristics of basidiomes differed from other temperateA. mellea s. str. in several aspects. Here, JapaneseA. mellea s. str. is reclassified asA. mellea subsp.nipponica and its basidiome morphologies and habitats are described.

Seven Armillaria species identified from Hokkaido Island, northern Japan

Sixty-two isolates from basidiocarps of Armillaria spp. were obtained from Hokkaido Island, northern Japan. Six species (Armillaria cepistipes, A. gallica, A. nabsnona, A. ostoyae, A. sinapina, and…

Armillaria species associated with Gastrodia elata in Japan

Clear isozyme profiles of esterases were obtained with all isolates except one and could be used for identification of the Armillaria species in Hokkaido as a useful complement to the mating-type method.

Armillaria jezoensis, a new symbiont ofGaleola septentrionalis (Orchidaceae) in Hokkaido

NineArmillaria isolates obtained from the roots of Galeola septentrionalis in Hokkaido were identified as A. jezoensis by means of mating tests, showing better mycelial growth and rhizomorph formation on GDA medium.

Genetic variation in Armillaria mellea subsp. nipponica estimated using IGS-RFLP and AFLP analyses

The results suggest that the large distribution of the isolates within the same subgroup were established via the basidiospore from a common parental strain.

Evidence of natural hybridization among homothallic members of the basidiomycete Armillaria mellea sensu stricto.

Biological Species of Armillaria in Japan.

The existence of 10 intersterile groups of Armillaria was determined by pairing haploid single spore isolates obtained from 20 basidiocarps from a wide geographic distribution in Japan and compatibility reactions were used to identify these to species.

The nonheterothallic life cycle of Japanese Armillaria mellea

The life cycle ofJapanese Armillaria mellea was studied with regard to basidiomata formation from monosporous cultures, the nuclear behavior during basidiospore formation and germination, and DNA…

Population Structure of Basidiomycetes

Despite a common ancestry, it takes a critical microscopic or biochemical examination to recognize the relationship between these groups; they differ radically in gross morphology, life history, and population structure.

Armillaria species in Japan identified by isozyme patterns with special reference to the biological species of the northern hemisphere

These iso enzyme patterns showed little variability between haploid and diploid hyphae even under different cultural conditions among isolates tested, and there were no differences on the whole in isozyme patterns among European biological species ofmillaria.

Significance of Armillaria Species in Taxonomy, Forest Ecology and Plant Pathology

The difficulties in identification of Armillaria species are reviewed, a species identification key for Korean indigenous species are suggested, and the significance of the genus in terms of forest ecology and plant pathology is discussed.

Identification of Kenyan Armillaria isolates by cultural morphology, intersterility tests and analysis of isozyme profiles

Three groups of morphologically distinct isolates were observed among nine Kenyan Armillaria isolates based on their mycelium and rhizomorphs characteristics, and it was shown that morphologically similar isolates had similar isozyme profiles of esterases but their profiles however differed from those of the European A. ostoyae.
