    Boletus fungus is one of the most difficult groups of fungi recognized internationally.


    EM Fries ( 1874 ) , the originator of fungal taxonomy , once wrote that "in my research there is nothing more difficult than boletus"


     

    China is one of the countries with the richest species of boletus in the world, but the understanding of this type of fungus was very limited in the past, and even some common East Asian endemic species have been named as European and American species for a long time
    .


    The Fungal Diversity and Molecular Evolution Research Team of Kunming Institute of Botany has been conducting long-term research on species diversity and phylogeny of Boletus fungus


     

    This monograph is the first academic monograph in China on the fungi of the genus Polysporidium Boletus, which fully reflects the latest research progress and status quo of this type of fungi at home and abroad.


    It officially published 34 new species and 4 new combinations, and comprehensively described the The detailed shape, microscopic characteristics and geographical distribution of 19 genera and 105 species of such fungi in China provide evidence specimens and species identification DNA barcodes of the distribution of each species in different regions of China, and list the differences between similar species .


     

    Different from most of the previous monographs on fungal taxonomy, this monograph uses the developmental evidence of molecular phylogeny, which not only establishes the phylogenetic relationship of the genera of Boletus spp.


    , but also clarifies various phylogenetic positions, which fully reflects our country's The diversity of this .


     

    The research was successively supported by the Class B Pilot Project of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the International Cooperation Project of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the National Natural Science Foundation of China, Yunnan Province and the Chinese Academy of Sciences
    .


    The book is funded and published by the National Science and Technology Academic Works Publishing Fund
