Boreostereum
Boreostereum is a genus of corticioid fungi. The genus was circumscribed in 1968 by Erast Parmasto to contain the type species, which was formerly known as Stereum radiatum.[1] Boreostereum has four species that are widely distributed in northern temperate areas.[2] Species in the genus have a dimitic hyphal system, and the hyphae have with brown encrustations that turn greenish when potassium hydroxide is applied.[3] Boreosterum vibrans produces vibralactones, chemical metabolites that inhibit various enzymes.[4][5] Recent phylogenetic research indicates that Boreostereum is a sister group to the rest of the Gloeophyllales.[6]
