Mineral content of gurumelo (Amanita ponderosa)

MSP-PCR and RAPD molecular biomarkers to characterizeAmanita ponderosa mushrooms

“…Although there is much research on mushrooms, there is lack of information about A. ponderosa. The small number of reports found in literature focus on mineral content (Moreno-Rojas et al, 2004) and molecular phylogenetic analyses. Moreno et al (2008) reported a study focussing on the distinction between Amanita curtipes and A. ponderosa species by sequencing the D1-D2 domains of the 28S rRNA gene and ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 region.…”

Modelling molecular and inorganic data of Amanita ponderosa mushrooms using artificial neural networks

“…Cu levels were near those related for Amanita spp. whereas lower than others edibles mushrooms species reported in the literature (Moreno-Rojas et al 2004;Sesli et al 2008). Cu levels were near those related for Amanita spp.…”

“…The inorganic contents (Ca, Mg, Fe, Cu, Zn, Mn, Na, K and P), of A. ponderosa samples were analysed according to Moreno-Rojas et al (2004).…”

“…The flesh is firm, very compact, white, but pinkish when in contact with the air, with a pungent flavour and odour, like damp earth. The spores are clumped or scattered and white when fresh, cream when dry (Moreno-Rojas et al 2004).…”

Distribution of mercury in Amanita fulva (Schaeff.) Secr. mushrooms: Accumulation, loss in cooking and dietary intake

“…also known as Tawny Grisette or OrangeBrown Ringless Amanita is one of the several edible species of its genus. In the book "The Macrofungi of China" among the listed 78 species of Amanita, the toxicity of 19 species was not indicated or they were just indicated as "unknown"; 39 species, which represent half of all species shown are identified as 'poisonous' or 'possibly poisonous' while 20 are indicated as "edible" or "conditionally edible" (Xiaolan, 2000 Fungorum, 2013;Moreno-Rojas et al, 2004;Xiaolan, 2000).…”
