In search for plant-derived cytotoxic compounds, it was found that the MeOH extracts obtained from Amanita pantherina(DC. ex Fr.) Krombh exhibited significant cytotoxic activity against human tumor cell line. The classical fractionation on the basis of the inhibitory activity upon the growth human tumor cell line. in vitro, and repeated column chromatography afforded several cytotoxic compounds from Amanita pantherina (DC, ex Fr.) Krombh. (omitted)

In order to elucidate the mechanism of toxic action of a pisonous mushroom, Amanita pantherina, biochemical effects of the mushroom extracts on mice were studied. A hotwater extract of Amanita pantherina injected intraperitoneally into male ICR mice evoked signs similar to those observed clinically upon acute poisoning by the mushroom and also changed the levels of component enzyme activities in blood, liver and urine. The serum cholinesterase activity was decreased significantly during 1-3 h after injection.

Many fungi were collected in Mt. Paekdu areas from May, 2002 to September, 2008 and were identified. As the resulting, the following species were unrecorded to Korea ; Clitocybe alnetorum, C. catinus, C. metachroa, C. odora var. alba, C. phyllophilla, Amanita muscaria var. formosa, A. pantherina var. lutea, Coprinus semitalis, Agrocybe dura, Inocybe grammata, Cortinarius epipolius and C. nemorensis. They were added list of Korean fungal resources.

We collected nearly 70 specimens of Amanita species during a diversity study of Korean mushrooms conducted in 2012. In this study, we primarily investigated 23 Amanita specimens belonging to sections Amanita and Vaginatae. Based on sequence data of the internal transcribed spacers and partial large subunit of ribosomal RNA and morphological characteristics, we identified the following 15 phylogenetic species: A. alboflavescens, A. ceciliae, A. farinosa, A. fulva, A. griseofolia, A. ibotengutake, A. melleiceps, A. orientifulva, A. pantherina, A. rubrovolvata, A. sinensis, A. subglobosa, A. vaginata, A. cf. vaginata f. alba, and an undescribed Amanita species. In this study, four of the identified Amanita species (A. griseofolia, A. ibotengutake, A. orientifulva, and A. sinensis) were reported for the first time in Korea.

This study was conducted to provide a fundamental information for commercial, medical usage and mushroom gene prezervation. The results of study are as following: 1. There were mushrooms of 53 families, 141 genus, 318 species at Mt. Palgong. 2. There were main edible mushroom of 63 species, main medicinal mushroom of 16 species, white rot fungus of 36 species and brown rot fungus of 4 species and Poisonous mushroom of 13 species at Mt. Palgong. 3. Poisonous mushrooms that are growing naturally at Mt. Palgong were Lampteromyces japonicus Sing, Amanita pantherina Krombh, Amanita phalloides Link, Naematoloma Krast and Amanita volvata Martin. 4. Numbers of mushroom species that are growing naturally at Mt. Palgong more than other regions.

Antifungal and antibacterial activities of 108 extracts from 36 species of mushrooms in Korea were screened. The powder of fruiting body of each mushroom was extracted with petroleum ether, 80% ethanol and distilled water subsequently. Among these, five extracts including the ethanol extract of Agaricus subrutilescens, seven extracts including the water extract of Amanita virosa, nine extracts including the water extract of Amanita pantherina and twenty five extracts including the water extract of Lycoperdon perlatum showed antibiotic activities against yeasts, fungi, Gram-negative bacteria and Gram-positive bacteria, respectively.

The occurrences of ectomycorrhizal fungi were investigated in a pine-mushroom forest at Hongcheon, Korea. The fairy rings of Tricholoma matsutake were figured by the sporocarp places of T. matsutake for three years $(1995{\sim}1997)$, and the occurrences of other ectomycorrhizal fungi were surveyed with x and y dimensions for two years $(1996{\sim}1997)$. The diameters of fairy rings of T. matsutake ranged from 2m to 10m, which indicated that the age of the fairy rings as $10{\sim}50$ years when we consider that the growth of the fairy ring used to show about 10 cm per year. Russula bella, R. sororia, R. delica and Cantharellus minor were the major species occurred on the site during the survey period, and each species occupied 16.0%, 12.8%, 12.4% and 7.0% of total mushroom occurrence, respectively. From the results, we could conclude that the surveyed stand was a productivity-declining forest from the view point of pine-mushroom production. In addition, Amanita pantherina, Suillus bovinus, Ramaria flaccida and Laccaria amethystea were considered to be the indicator species for declining of pine-mushroom productivity since some fruiting bodies of the species appeared around the fairy ring of T. matsutake.

Amanita hemibapha is a kind of mycorrhizal mushroom which has a relation with host plants and environmental factors. For the purpose of studying the relationship between environmental factors and mushrooms, in this study we conducted to investigate the soil physicochemical properties, the distribution of plants and the diversity of mushrooms in Gwangyang, Chungdo and Daegu. Soil texture in habitate of Amanita hemibapha was Sandy Loam and Sandy Clay Loam which contains a high rate of sand. Soil pH was approximately 5.0 in all study sites. Total nitrogen contents, C/N ratio and available phosphate($P_2O_5$) were the highest at the Chungdo. However, Gwangyang and Chungdo represent similar Cation Exchange Capacity(C.E.C) and Daegu has much less than other areas. Exchangeable cations, $Ca^{2+}$ content was higher at Gwangyang and Chungdo than Daegu and $Na^+$ content was the highest at Chungdo among three sites. Daegu has much $Mg^{2+}$ contents followed by Chungdo and Gwangyang. Interestingly, $K^+$ content listed in reverse order of $Mg^{2+}$ at Gwangyang, Chungdo and Daegu. The main woody plants in study sites are confirmed as Carpinus laxiflora, Quercus mongolica, Q. serrata and Pinus densiflora. Quercus species are found as a common species in three study sites. Lastly, 8 family and 12 species of mushrooms are emerged in Gwangyang, also 8 family and 12 species and 5 family and 10 species are found in Chungdo and Daegu, respectively. Amanita pantherina, Boletus edulis, Tylopilus felleus and Marasmius maximus, which found in study sites, are also kind of mycorrhizal mushroom same as A. hemibaph. By using correspondence analysis, Q. mongolica, Q. serrata, Q. variabilis and C. laxiflora are expected to as a host plant of A. hemibapha.

Mushrooms growing in the Wolchulsan National Park were surveyed from April to October 2018. As a result of this survey, 2 divisions, 9 classes, 24 orders, 71 families, 177 genera, and 407 species were found. Among them, 3 classes, 16 orders, 55 families, 150 genera, and 370 species belonged to Basidiomycota, while 6 classes, 8 orders, 16 families, 27 genera, and 37 species belonged to Ascomycota. The species richness was the highest in September at the altitudes between ~100 and 200 m. Among the investigated sites, the most diverse species occurred in the Gyeongpodae area. In this survey we found, Macrolepiota procera, Suillus bovinus, and Amanita pantherina, all of which have been known as climate-sensitive biological indicator species (CBIS). Based on the DNA sequence analyses, Craterellus parvogriseus was confirmed as a new record for Korea.
