TITLE:

Richness and conservation of woody decay fungi in mining areas in the municipality of Paragominas, Pará, Brazil

KEY WORDS:

Amazon, Basidiomycota, molecular delimitation, saprophytic fungi, taxonomy

PAGES: 31
BIG AREA: Ciências Biológicas
AREA: Botânica
SUMMARY:

Agaricomycetes comprise organisms that decomposer several types of plant substrates, contributing to the nutrients cycling in forest ecosystems. Deforestation and habitat loss caused by human activities as agriculture, livestock, and mining are the main threat to Amazonian diversity, including the Agaricomycetes fungi. Thus, this study aims to know the diversity of Agaricomycetes based on molecular, morphological, and ecological data in areas of secondary and regenerated forest in the Mina matrix, in Paragominas (PA); to evaluate the richness, abundance, and composition of this group of fungi identified in the areas (naturally regenerated and planted) as well as in different periods (dry and rainy). The study will be carried out at the bauxite mine of Hydro (Bauxite Mining) in the municipality of Paragominas. In this area, four collections will be sampled, every two months, from February to August 2022. The samples collected will be identified with specific literature for each group of lignocellulite Agaricomycetes. Additionally, molecular data from new species and/or new records, as well as species of the genus Rigidoporus will be analyzed to the description of the species. Thus, it is expected to expand the knowledge about the diversity of this group of fungi, as well as the understanding of the relationships between these fungi and the habitat, providing important data to support monitoring actions, management and conservation in mining areas in the municipality of Paragominas, in the Brazilian Amazon.
