Within the Daedaleopsis genus six species has been described, however, some
sources are indicating that there are 10(11) species. Two species are
occurring in Europe, including D. confragosa (with its variety tricolor) and
D. septentrionalis. Daedaleopsis confragosa causes white rot of broadleaved
hosts and most often appears as saprotroph, less often at living trees as
opportunistic parasite. Basidiomes of D. confragosa form two types of
hymenophore and express differences in the color of upper surface. Based on
this, two species were separated in the past including D. confragosa with
pores and D. tricolor with lamelloid hymenophore. The aims of this study
were to isolate the fungus from morphologically different fruiting bodies
and to determine whether there is any difference in growth rates and
morphology of pure cultures. It was recorded that reaction and growth on
media amended with gallic or tannic acid are identical, and there were no
substantial differences in growth rates at different temperatures. Both
types of fruiting bodies at short distances were recorded on the same
branches in some cases, and after the isolation tests morphologically
identical cultures were obtained. Based upon these results and previously
performed molecular studies, we believe that there is no reason for D.
tricolor to be considered even as a variety, and that is a single species D.
confragosa. Fungus D. confragosa has medicinal properties showing cytotoxic,
analgesic, anticancer, antifungal, antibacterial and antiviral effects.
