The distribution and evolution of muscarine and the ibotenic acid biosynthetic gene cluster within the genus Amanita section Amanita revealed by phylogenomics.

IMA fungus January 9, 2026 Yu-Ting Su, Zheng-Mi He, Yu-Zhi Yang et al.

Numerous severe cases of neurotoxic mushroom poisoning worldwide are caused by ibotenic acid and muscimol produced by specific species belonging to section Amanita of the genus Amanita. Recent studies have demonstrated that both toxins are produced through the ibotenic acid biosynthetic gene cluster (iboBGC) in these species. In addition to these two toxins, section Amanita is also thought to...

Morphology, multilocus phylogeny, and toxin analysis reveal two new species of Amanita section Amanita (Amanitaceae) from China

MycoKeys June 9, 2025 Yu-Ting Su, Fei Xu, Ping Zhang et al.

Globally, many species of Amanita sect. Amanita (Amanitaceae, Agaricales) cause poisoning after consumption. Amanita flavomelleicepssp. nov. and Amanita parvisychnopyramissp. nov., two new species of A. section Amanita from China, are described here. Morphology and molecular phylogenetic analyses based on five genes (ITS, nrLSU, RPB2, TEF1-α, and TUB2) revealed these two taxa as distinct...
