Edible mushroom diversity in Isparta, Türkiye
Abstract
Today, the widespread knowledge of the ethnobotanical characteristics of plants has enabled people to make maximum use of plants. Similarly, with the determination of the ethnomycological characteristics of mushrooms, it is necessary to make accurate and clear diagnoses of mushrooms to maximize the benefits of mushrooms to humans. In addition, ethnomycological and taxonomic studies, which include traditional knowledge about mushrooms, are highly important for transferring traditional knowledge to future generations. In this context, places where edible mushrooms can be found in the Isparta region were determined. By interviewing the people in these places, it was determined whether they collected the right species for human health by determining the mushrooms they frequently consumed. The mushroom samples were collected and morphologically identified from the study areas between 2023 and 2024. Within the scope of this study, 20 macro mushroom belonging to 11 families (Agaricus augustus, Agaricus campestris, Agaricus bitorquis, Amanita vaginata, Bovista plumbea, Coprinellus micaceus, Coprinus comatus, Flammulina velutipes, Infundibulicybe geotropa, Lactarius deliciosus, Lepista nuda, Macrolepiota procera, Marasmius oreades, Morchella elata, Morchella esculenta, Pleurotus ostreatus, Rhodocollybia butyracea, Russula sp., Tricholoma terreum, Verpa bohemica) were detected. This study provides a basis for further scientific studies to be carried out with macromycetes. In addition, by determining the accuracy of the mushrooms consumed by the local people by making mushroom diagnoses, the consumption of the wrong mushrooms can be prevented, and the number of poisoning cases can be reduced.
