The Impact Factor measures the average number of citations received in a particular year by papers published in the journal during the two preceding years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) IF: 1.2 To calculate the five year Impact Factor, citations are counted in 2017 to the previous five years and divided by the source items published in the previous five years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) 5-Year IF: 1.4 The Immediacy Index is the average number of times an article is cited in the year it is published. The journal Immediacy Index indicates how quickly articles in a journal are cited. Immediacy Index: 0.3 The Eigenfactor score, developed by Jevin West and Carl Bergstrom at the University of Washington, is a rating of the total importance of a scientific journal. Journals are rated according to the number of incoming citations, with citations from highly ranked journals weighted to make a larger contribution to the eigenfactor than those from poorly ranked journals. Eigenfactor: 0.00066 The Journal Citation Indicator (JCI) is a single measurement of the field-normalized citation impact of journals in the Web of Science Core Collection across disciplines. The key words here are that the metric is normalized and cross-disciplinary. JCI: 0.34 SJR: 0.274 SNIP: 0.41 CiteScore™:: 2.8 H-Index: 37

SINOPSIS

In the course of our search for new drug candidates from polypores, we studied a rare North American mushroom, Merulius incarnates (Corticiaceae). The polypores and corticioid fungi are members of Aphyllophorales, a group of morphologically complex, terrestrial Basidiomycetes. Many of these fungi are saprobic wood decayers and most often are found on logs, stumps, or other dead wood. Polypores are considered by many as a major source of pharmacologically active natural products. Their secondary metabolites exhibit a wide range of biological activities such as antimicrobial, antiviral, antifungal, anticancer, cardiovascular, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, immunostimulating, nematocidal, and other activities (Zjawiony, 2004).
Merulius incarnates Schwein. (1822), also known under the later name ,i>Phlebia incarnate Nakesone et Bursdall (1994), can be found on dead logs and stumps of hardwoods, particularly those of white oak, beech, maple, and birch in the southeastern United States. It grows in overlapping clusters, usually with Stereum ostrea (Blume et T.Nees) Fr., mostly in the fall months (September–November). M. incarnates is a rather small mushroom (2–5 cm in diameter), with a very characteristic bright coral pink color of the upper cap—hence, the common name Coral Woodcrust. The fruiting body is irregularly shaped, elliptical or semicircular, slightly convexed without stem. The pore surface is whitish and veined. The spores are white, elliptical, and 2–4 μm in diameter. The mushroom gives the yellow to orange test reaction with KOH.
