Turkish Professor Reveals The Discovery Of New Estimate Species In Isparta
JAKARTA - A new fungi species in Kryptazmenelda badminton National Park, known as the rose city, was introduced to scientific literature through recent research.
Professor of the University of Applied Sciences Isparta at the Atabey Vocational School Ouguzhan Kaygusuz, has succeeded in identifying new fungal species within his field study scope.
This new fungal species, seen in the Kryptaz fireman National Park and collected from various habitats between 2018-2023, was introduced to the scientific world under the name "Melanogaster Anatolicus," as reported by the Daily Sabah on December 6.
The study of this fungal species was published in the "Personia" magazine that publishes about fungi in the Netherlands
Kaygusuz told Anadolu Agency (AA), Isparta has different habitat characteristics due to different climate types and geological structures.
Highlighting the high diversity of fungi across provinces, Kaygusuz said: "In the study, we identified a type of fungi that has a michoriza (symbiosis with roots of some plants), especially under a veil tree. We collected the first sample of these mushrooms, which grew under a tree we know as the Taurus cedar, from the KryptzISHlda National Park. We examined them and thought they were different. Then we investigated their distribution and realized that these mushrooms thrived on our university campus."
Explaining a microscopic check of determining this fungal species differs from other species in the world, Kaygusuz said: "We isolated his DNA. We compared it to other DNA in existing databases. We expanded our research. Our examination was carried out with Professor Gabriel Moreno of Madrid Alcala University (UAH), Spain. As a result, we decided that this plant only grows in the region of Isparta in the world."
Kaygusuz emphasized that the fungal species they introduce into the literature are often seen under the lidar tree.

"We found that the mushrooms were scattered in areas at an altitude of 1000 and 1700 feet. In addition, these mushrooms are different from other similar mushrooms," he added.
"There is a difference. We compiled our results into a report. Since our mushrooms grew in Isparta, an important place in Anatolia, we registered our mushrooms by naming them. This fungal species is only known in Isparta. Previously we have introduced other fungi. species from the Isparta region to the literature," he said.
Kaygusuz added that the Isparta University of Applied Sciences has conducted a very important research on introducing fungal diversity in Turkey to the world.
