Materials
and
methods
Biologicalmaterial
Strains were obtained by vegetative isolation from sporophores of the genus Lyophyllum. Mushrooms were collectedthroughdirectedsampling inforestsofPinusspp. and Abies religiosa within the Nevado de Toluca Flora and FaunaProtection Area(APFFNT,byits Spanishacronym) in StateofMexico,Mexico.Collectionswereconductedwiththe help of key informants, who provided information during the fieldwork about the use of these mushrooms as food. Thespecimenswere herborized,24 characterizedwithbasic
mycologytechniques, identified11,25,26 anddeposited inthe
FungiCollectionoftheNacionalHerbariumofMexicoatthe InstituteofBiology,UNAM(MEXU),withherbariumnumbers 28148,28147 and 28149.Thestrains were deposited inthe Strain Collection of the Institute of Ecology (INECOL) in Xalapa,Veracruz,Mexico,withthekeysIE981,IE982,IE983. Alongwiththestrainsobtained,analysiswasconductedon strainIE975,whichhadalreadybeendepositedinthestrain
collectionafterbeingobtainedinapreviousstudy.27TheDNA
ofthestrainswasextractedandsequencedandtheirgrowth rate and biomass production in solid media and biomass productioninliquidmediaevaluated.
Geneticcharacterization
AnXNAPkit(Sigma–Aldrich)wasusedtoextracttheDNAfrom the strains. Adissectionneedle was usedtotake 1–2mm2
of aerial mycelium from each strain in the PDA medium. Themyceliumwasincubatedfor10minat65◦Cand10min at 95◦C in 20L of extraction solution in a thermocycler (Bio-Rad,modelT100).Followingincubation,20Lofdilution solution wasadded and the mixtureincubated atambient temperaturefor30min.28Theribosomalinternaltranscribed
spacer(ITS)regionwasamplifiedwiththeprimersandITS1F and ITS4,29followingtheprotocolofIzzoetal.30 The
qual-ity ofthePCRproductswasreviewedbyelectrophoresisin 1% agarose gels. Good quality products were selected and cleanedusingamixtureof1Lofultrapurewaterand1Lof ExoSAP-IT(USB-Affimetrix)foreach3.5LofPCRproduct.The sequencingreactionwasconductedwithaBigDye® Termina-torv3.1CycleSequencingKit(AppliedBiosystems),following themanufacturer’sinstructions.TheDNAwassequencedin bothdirections,usingthesameprimersusedinthePCR,in a sequencer ABI 3100(Applied Biosystems) in the Labora-toryofGenomicSequencingofBiodiversityandHealthofthe InstituteofBiology,UNAM.Thesequences wereeditedand assembled inGeneious ProR7 (Biomatters). Thesequences ofeachstrainweredepositedinGenBankwiththeaccession numbersKY195930,KY195931,KY195932andKY195933.
The phylogenetic analyses used the DNA sequences of clade V (section Difformia)for phylogenetic analysis of the familyLyophyllaceae.31SequencesofspecimensofLyophyllum

Evaluationofstrainsinsolidmedia
Straincharacterization
Morphologicalcharacterizationofthestrainswascarriedout accordingtoCruz-Ulloa,36 using thecolor key “HTMLcolor
codes”(html-color-codes.info/).Formicroscopic characteriza-tion,asampleofmyceliumwastakenfromtheperipheryof thestrainandtemporarypreparationsweremadewithCongo reddyeat10%.Inthese,thepresenceorabsenceofclampswas determinedandthediameterofthehyphaemeasuredat100× (20hyphaepertreatment)usingaMotic® opticalmicroscope andthesoftwarefortheMoticDigitalMicroscopeDMB3-223 (MoticChinaGroupCo.,Ltd.,2001–2004).
Growthrateandbiomassproduction
A cork borer was used to take a sample of agar with mycelium5mm indiameter. Five replicates were taken of this agar sampleper culture mediumand strain and each was placed in the center of a Petri dish (9cm in diame-ter). ThePetri dishes were incubated in darkness at 18◦C taken from that reported by a previous study27 and every
thirddaythecolonydiameterwasmeasuredwithavernier (5 metal vernier caliper, Pretul®, China). The growth rate (GR) was obtained from the equation GR=(Fd−Id)/(Ft−It) (where “Fd” is the final diameter of growth, “Id” the ini-tial diameter of growth and “Ft−It”=the days of mycelial growth).37Attheendoftheincubationperiodofthestrains,
theagarwaseliminatedbyimmersioninboilingwaterand themyceliumwasthenrinsedwithhotwater.Oncewashed, it was oven dried at 80◦C for 24h and its dry biomass recorded.27

Thepositionofclade2formedbythethreeotherstrains:IE 975,IE982andIE981andtwospecimenscollected(AR09641 andCB08330)isuncertain(MLb=31.5)withincladeVb,and themorphologicalcharacterizationofthesporophoresdoes notprovidethedatathatwouldallowamoreaccurate clas-sification. The specimens of those that were obtained are geneticallysimilar amongthemselves; however, their mor-phologyandmicroscopyisvaried,butthesizeofthespores is similar to that ofL. decastes.26 However, the basidia do notmatchthoseofanyoftheotherspecieswithinthe sec-tion Difformia. Likewise, there are differences in terms of habitat(Table1),sincetheyarefoundbothintheforestof
AbiesreligiosaandPinussp.Confusionintheidentificationof thespeciesisgeneratedbytheintraspecificplasticityofthe speciesclassifiedinthecomplexL.decasteswithinthesection

speciesrequiresacomprehensivetaxonomicstudy,inwhich thepossibilityofdescribingthemasnewspeciesisgiven con-sideration.
Regarding the characteristics of the strains of the two species,theseare differentiated mainlybythe colorofthe mycelium(Table2)whilesharingsomeothercharacteristics,
suchasthe absenceofanamorphicstructures,the formof myceliumgrowthandthepresenceofabundantclampsand afimbriateedge.Thisagreeswiththatreportedforstrains of different Lyophyllum specieswithin the sections Lyophyl-lum, Difformia and Tephrophana.41 A detailed study of the
strains couldgeneratemoreaccurate informationfor iden-tification of the species. However, the description of the strainsinthisstudydoesnotprovidedataregarding distinc-tivecharacteristicsthatwouldpermitdifferentiationamong the species.40,41 The characteristics ofthe strains

Regardingthegrowthrate,thestrainIE983,which corre-spondstoL.aff.shimejiandIE975ofLyophyllumsp.presented ahighergrowthratethanthatreportedforL.shimejiandL. decastes, withgrowths of47–60mm and 22–85mm, respec-tively, after four weeks of incubation.41 Growth rate and
