Abstract
The fungal genus Trametes belongs to the Polyporales of Basidiomycota. Trametes species exhibit medicinal properties and are used in traditional Chinese medicine. Trametes versicolor is one of the most studied species in this genus. This review presents recent research on the prominent characteristics, such as antimicrobial, antitumour, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory, and other important medicinal activities, of Trametes species, addresses unsolved issues related to this genus, and provides several prospects for future research.
期刊介绍:
Fungal Biology Reviews is an international reviews journal, owned by the British Mycological Society. Its objective is to provide a forum for high quality review articles within fungal biology. It covers all fields of fungal biology, whether fundamental or applied, including fungal diversity, ecology, evolution, physiology and ecophysiology, biochemistry, genetics and molecular biology, cell biology, interactions (symbiosis, pathogenesis etc), environmental aspects, biotechnology and taxonomy. It considers aspects of all organisms historically or recently recognized as fungi, including lichen-fungi, microsporidia, oomycetes, slime moulds, stramenopiles, and yeasts.
