Excited about our new paper in the journal Mycorrhiza by @CaiafaMarcos @MAJusino @karlsenayala and others in the Smith Lab. One of the first papers to examine the ectomycorrhizal fungi of North American Cistaceae plants: link.springer.com/article/10.100…
Check out the new paper in Mycologia by Alassane Sow et al. - a collaboration by our lab and Greg Bonito's lab at MSU describing two edible North American truffles. @BenLemmond @JudVanWyk : tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…
Elated to share that this January, I’ll be opening the doors to the Lofgren Mycology Laboratory at Berkeley in the @PMB_Berkeley dep. Our group will work on the ecology and evolution of fungi and their hosts, with a focus on ectomycorrhizal symbiosis, metabolism, and genomics.
I’ve enjoyed recent debates about common mycorrhizal networks and the #woodwideweb as well explained in this nice @nature_news piece by @Aisling_Irwin BUT I disagree with one misconception that I think is being propagated in these discussions 1/n nature.com/articles/d4158…
What is the most common fungus in Florida? it might very well be this putatively introduced mushroom species, Marasmius vagus: edis.ifas.ufl.edu/publication/PP… The rapid expansion of the range of this fungus in Florida is captured nicely by Sarah Prentice in this new extension document
Congratulations to Dr. Claudia Paez and our other co-authors on this new paper describing Parvodontia relampaga - the causal agent of relampago blight of woody plants in Florida, USA (sciencedirect.com/science/articl…)

Take a trip through the evolutionary history of the mushroom genus Psilocybe . The genes for the psychoactive compound psilocybin were transferred horizontally between species up to five times between 40 million and 9 million years ago. In PNAS: ow.ly/42uV50QsGxU

Accidental cultivation of the European truffle Tuber brumale in North American truffle orchards
Mycorrhiza - Tuber brumale is a European edible truffle species that is often viewed as a contaminant in truffle orchards, as it visually resembles more valuable black truffles such as T....
Cathie Aime was recently awarded the Josef Adolf von Arx Award from the Westerdijk Fungal Biodiversity Institute, reserved for individuals who has made an outstanding contribution to taxonomic research of fungal biodiversity, marking a distinguished career in mycology. Congrats!
The Smith Fungal Biology Lab at the University of Florida is looking for a full-time research technician to work on several ongoing projects related to fungal systematics, ecology, and evolution. Details are below! Questions? email <[email protected]>
