Ganoderma microsporum is a species of Ganoderma mushroom native to Taiwan that grows on willow trees.

Description

Ganoderma microsporum has a relatively short or obscure stem that appears bronze or dark purple. The cap is shelf like or unevenly shaped and has a glazed appearance.[1]

The spores measure 6–8.5 by 4.5–5 μm, smaller than the spores of all other known types of Ganoderma.[2][3]

Taxonomy

The species was first discovered in Taipei, Taiwan by R.-S. Hseu in 1982, and published in the scientific journal Mycotaxon in 1989.[1]

The specific epithet microsporum refers to the relatively small size of its spores.[2][3]

Research

Compounds discovered in Ganoderma include polysaccharides, triterpenoids, nucleic acids and fungal immunomodulatory proteins or FIPs.[4] According to the NIH PubMed database on the physiological activities of G. microsporum, primarily from the FIP found in G. microsporum (FIP-gmi or GMI), currently known physiological activities include effects on the central nervous system and the respiratory system.[5][6]
