First Record of Helvella capucina in Türkiye: Morphological and Molecular Characterization

Abstract

In the current study, Helvella capucina collected from Hakkari province in Türkiye is described as a new record using morphological and molecular characters. Ascocarp, hymenium, stipe, ascospores, ascus and paraphyses were used as diagnostic morphological characters. Images of microscopic characters, microphotographs of the ascospores, and colour pictures of the ascus in their natural habitats are provided. The species, which is placed in section Elasticae, was characterised by its short-stipitate apothecium and pure white when fresh, drying yellowish stipe. Molecular analysis was also carried out to characterize the new record reliably by using DNA sequences of the heat shock protein 90 (HSP90), RNA polymerase 2 (RPB2) and translation elongation factor 1-alpha (TEF1-α). Additionally, the analyses of the three regions were combined to create a concatenated tree. The multigene phylogenetic position and evolutionary relationships of H. capucina with other species of Helvella in Elasticae were inferred using Bayesian Inferences (BI) of the concatenated dataset. Both morphological and molecular data separated Helvella capucina from its close relatives. Detailed descriptions, colour images of fresh and dried ascomata, along with photographs of microscopic characters and the concatenated phylogenetic tree were provided.

Cited By

The works submitted to our journals are first judged grammatically. After this phase, articles are sent two reviewers. If necessary, the third reviewer is assessed. In the publication of works, a decision is made by evaluating the level of contribution to science and readers within the criteria specified in the writing rules. Reviewers are requested to submit their assessments within 30 days at the latest. The reviewers' evaluations and the answers to these evaluations are reviewed by the editor and it is decided whether the work will be published or not.
