ROBLES, Carolina A; LOPEZ, Silvia E  y  CARMARAN, Cecilia C. Basidiomicetes endofíticos de madera en Platanus acerifolia (Platanaceae) de Argentina: notas y estudios de cultivo. Bol. Soc. Argent. Bot. [online]. 2015, vol.50, n.4, pp.437-445. ISSN 1851-2372.

The knowledge of local fungal strains’ features increases our ability to make use of their properties and to implement, in consequence, new and better ways of using the native biological resources. To contribute to the knowledge of these organisms, in this work we present descriptions and cultural studies of 5 species previously reported as endophytic basidiomycetes: Coprinopsis cinerea, Granulobasidium vellereum, Inonotus rickii, Phanerochaete chrysosporium and Trichosporon sporotrichoides, isolated from wood of London plane trees (Platanus acerifolia) in Buenos Aires City, Argentina. Coprinopsis cinerea is described in culture for the first time and differences in cultures of G. vellereum and I. rickii with previous reports are listed. Culture characters of P. chrysosporium and T. sporotrichoides did not show appreciable differences with previous descriptions.
