Title: Correction of Scientific Name for Cultivated Bai-Ling-Gu in China
Abstract: A wild A-Wei-Mo specimen collected from Xinjiang was identified with morphological methods.The results showed that it was consistent with the morphological characteristics of Pleurotus eryngii var.tuolensis,but different from those of P.nebrodensis reported in Europe.In addition,the strain CCMSSC 02514 isolatde from the wild mushroom specimen was analyzde with molecular menthod.Based on rDNA ITS sequences from the phylogenetic tree,the relationship among Chinese Bai-Ling-Gu P.nebrodensis and P.eryngii var.ferule in Italy,and P.eryngii were analyzed.The rDNA ITS sequences of CCMSSC 02514 and P.eryngii var.tuoliesis AFRL 6022 were identical.Combined with the morphology and the rDNA ITS sequence analysies,we considered that Bai-Ling-Gu is different from the European P.nebrodensis,and the former is a brach of P.eryngii evolved independently in China.The scientific name for the Chinese Bai-Ling-Gu should be Pleurotus eryngii var.tuoliensis.
