In addition to mycelial growth, these factors affect metabolite production. There are limited studies that have identified the metabolites produced by the fungus Bjerkandera adusta, which have potential biotechnological applications. Here, we evaluated the effects of temperature, culture medium, and incubation time on the production of mycelial mass and metabolites of B. adusta isolated from Pinus taeda. The highest mycelial mass was obtained at 24 °C, in the potato dextrose and malt extract media, upon incubation for 28 and 35 days. The disaccharide α-α-trehalose was for the first time isolated and identified by X-ray diffraction in this fungal genus.This article examines how social, economic, and political upheavals in the Sahara have stimulated re-thinking about loneliness in relation to trauma from mobility, dispersion, and return home in communities of Tamajaq-speaking, Muslim, and semi-nomadic Tuareg in northern Niger and Mali. How do Tuareg, sometimes called Kel Tamajaq after their language, draw on and re-formulate longstanding and new ways of coping with loneliness in regional droughts and wars, which have driven many to alternately disperse from their communities and return to homes that are no longer the same? What is the connection between changing modes of travel, concepts of loneliness, and ways of coping with this experience? In these communities, loneliness is a recurrent theme in personal life histories-in particular, in narratives of both geographic travel and spiritual travel in medico-ritual healing-and is alluded to in poetry, song, and everyday conversation. This article explores the meanings of loneliness and ways of coping with it in this society through analysis of this emotion in symbol, subjective perception, and social experience. The focus is upon representations of loneliness in narrati
