The first record of an economic impact of mycoviruses on fungi was recorded in cultivated mushrooms (Agaricus bisporus) in the late 1940s and was called the La France disease. [5] Hollings found more than three different types of viruses in the abnormal sporophores. This report essentially marks the beginning of mycovirology. [4]
Amanita pantherina compared to closely related species. Cap: 5–18 centimetres (2–7 inches) wide, [2] hemispheric at first, then convex to plano-convex, deep brown to hazel-brown to pale ochraceous brown, densely distributed warts that are pure white to sordid cream, minutely verruculose, floccose, easily removable.
The genus Amanita was first published with its current meaning by Christian Hendrik Persoon in 1797. [1] Under the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature, Persoon's concept of Amanita, with Amanita muscaria (L.) Pers. as the type species, has been officially conserved against the older Amanita Boehm (1760), which is considered a synonym of Agaricus L. [2]
Dozens of species of psychedelic mushrooms are found in Europe, but there is little documented usage of them in Old World history besides the use of Amanita muscaria among Siberian peoples. [ 36 ] [ 37 ] The few existing accounts that mention psilocybin mushrooms typically lack sufficient information to allow species identification, focusing on ...
Venereal granulomata on a dog's penis. A canine transmissible venereal tumor (CTVT), also known as a transmissible venereal tumor (TVT), canine transmissible venereal sarcoma (CTVS), sticker tumor and infectious sarcoma, is a histiocytic tumor of the external genitalia of the dog and other canines, and is transmitted from animal to animal during mating.
Hebeloma aminophilum, commonly known as the ghoul fungus, is a species of mushroom in the family Hymenogastraceae. Found in Western Australia , it gets its common name from the propensity of the fruiting bodies to spring out of decomposing animal remains.
An anal sac adenocarcinoma is an uncommon and aggressive malignant tumor found in dogs that arises from the apocrine glandular tissue of anal sac. The disease exists in cats as well, but is much less common in that species. [1] They are the second most common cancerous cause of hypercalcaemia (high serum calcium) in dogs, following T-cell ...
DFT1 is the main and older strain that infects most of the devil population. It was first described in 1996 in an animal from Mount William National Park in northeastern Tasmania. [2] DFT2 appeared around 2011 [3] and was first detected in 2014; all cases are limited to the area of southern Tasmania near the D'Entrecasteaux Channel. [5]
