| Abstract | Lactarius andRussula are ectomycorrhizalfungi important forforestecosystems,and many of which are edible mushrooms.In Basidiomycota, these generaarevery diverse and possess complicated characters resulting in a number of under describedspecies, especially in South East Asia.Molecular method, i.e. DNA barcoding,has been increasingly used to assistresolvingtaxonomical problemsof mushrooms, especially in these two genera.Here, we collected ninespecimensfrom Northeastern Thailand andidentified by both morphology andDNAbarcoding. We found that eight ofthenine specimens wereclassified into Russulaand the other one was classified as Lactarius. Of the nine specimens, seven specimenscould be identifiedat the species levelbymorphologyand the result wasconcordant with the barcoding. The other twospecimens,however,could not be identified morphologically because of several unclearphenotypiccharacters. The barcoding resultsof these two specimens werealsoconfusing because their sequences matched with several species from the database with equal percentage of identities.Our studyprovides new sequences of the describedspecies tothe database as references for the molecular identification of the mushroomsin the generaLactarius andRussula. |
