Taxonomy
Italian botanist Pier Antonio Micheli introduced the genus in 1729 to include 14 species featuring fruit bodies with centrally-placed stipes, and pores on the underside of the cap.[1] The generic name combines the Ancient Greek words πολύς ("many") and πόρος ("pore").[2]
Elias Fries divided Polyporus into three subgenera in his 1855 work Novae Symbol Mycologici: Eupolyporus, Fomes, and Poria.[3] In a 1995 monograph, Maria Núñez and Leif Ryvarden grouped 32 Polyporus species into 6 morphologically-based infrageneric groups: Admirabilis, Dendropolyporus, Favolus, Polyporellus, Melanopus, and Polyporussensu stricto.[4]
The identity of the type species of Polyporus has long been a matter of contention among mycologists. Some have preferred P. brumalis,[5][6] some P. squamosus,[7] while others have preferred P. tuberaster.[8][9][10]
Several molecular phylogenetics studies have shown that Polyporus, as currently circumscribed, is polyphyletic and will need to have its generic limits revised.[11][12][10]

Renoprotective effect and mechanism of polysaccharide from Polyporus umbellatus sclerotia on renal fibrosis.
Li H, Yan Z, Xiong Q, Chen X, Lin Y, Xu Y, Bai L, Jiang W, Zheng D, Xing C.
Carbohydrate polymers. 2019 May;212()1-10.
As a fungal polysaccharide, polysaccharide (PPUS) from Polyporus umbellatus sclerotia have showed remarkable anti-inflammatory activities. In view of the closely relationship between inflammation and renal fibrosis, and considering the significant role of other fungal polysaccharides on treatment of
Fomitopsis mounceae and F. schrenkii-two new species from North America in the F. pinicola complex.

Mycologia. 2019 Mar;()1-19.
Two new species, Fomitopsis mounceae and F. schrenkii (Polyporales, Basidiomycota) in the F. pinicola species complex in North America, are described and illustrated. Previous molecular phylogenetic analyses identified three well-delimited lineages that represent F. mounceae and F. ochracea from Can
Three exopolysaccharides from the liquid fermentation of Polyporus umbellatus and their bioactivities.

The exopolysaccharides were extracted and separated from the broth of the liquid fermentation of P. umbellatus, and the antioxidant activities and other relative bioactivities were investigated, aiming to find clues for a wider use in the future. Three novel exopolysaccharides of PPS1, PPS2 and PPS3
