Can the location of the isolation laboratory affect the generation of myxomycete data using moist chambers? An experiment in the Neotropics
(2021-03-11)
The moist chamber technique, as it is used in myxomycete research, is an extremely useful method to optimize project resources. However, as it occurs with any laboratory-based protocol, the usefulness of this technique ...
Mosses as spore traps for myxomycetes
(2020-07-06)
Small-mesh nylon bags filled with autoclaved samples of mosses were placed out in the field in northwest Arkansas and central Costa Rica to assess the extent to which mosses could serve as spore traps for myxomycetes. The ...
Assemblages of corticolous myxomycetes associated with species of Pinus (Pinaceae) in four different regions of the world
(2020-07-02)
Corticolous myxomycetes associated with four species of pine in different regions of the
world were investigated. Samples of bark collected from 20 trees in each region were used to prepare 240 moist chamber cultures, ...
Generation of myxomycete data from three discrete experiments using moist chamber cultures in a Neotropical forest
(2021-11-23)
The moist chamber technique is widely used in ecological research on myxomycetes. However,
limited assessments on the usefulness of the technique have been carried out using empirical data. In
the present study, three ...
A study case of two myxomycete surveys in a fir forest of central Mexico
(2021-07-13)
Field collections and laboratory isolation in moist chamber cultures are two complementary techniques widely used to record sporocarps of myxomycetes. The species recorded using either method tend to be different due to ...
Rapid assessment of myxomycetes in Isla Calero and Isla Brava, Costa Rica
(2022-03-02)
The geography of the northeasternmost section of Costa Rica corresponds to river islands sparsely populated and highly protected for biological conservation. Myxomycetes had not been studied in that part of such Central ...
Notes on a rapid assessment of myxomycetes for Kabylie, Algeria
(2010)
Studies of myxomycetes in some regions of the w orld are limited. orthern Africa is one prominent example. For this reason, a rapid assessment of myxomycete diversity in four study areas w ithin the Kabylie region of Algeria ...
Isolation of Beauveria bassiana (Bals.) Vuill. (Deuteromycotina: Hyphomycetes) from the Chagas disease vector, Triatoma infestans (Hemiptera: Reduviidae) in Argentina
(Springer, 2005-04)
A survey for natural entomopathogenic fungi of the Chagas disease vector Triatoma infestans was conducted in five provinces of Argentina since 2001. Nymphs (1.5%) and adults (3.3%) infected with a strain of the fungus ...
Population trends of the red palm mite, raoiella indica hirst (acari: tenuipalpidae) and associated entomopathogenic fungi in trinidad, antigua, st kitts and nevis and dominica
