Essentials of Diseases of the Skin Including the Syphilodermata Arranged in the Form of Questions and Answers Prepared Especially for Students of Medicine The parasites can fructify abundantly on these little stalks, and in consequence propagate themselves in the new season by the conidia coming from the vivacious mycelium. Fungi: Their Nature and Uses With malacoid mycelium we have nothing to do in this paper. Student's Hand-book of Mushrooms of America, Edible and Poisonous Threads of mycelium growing from the edge of the lamellæ and from the stem intermingle. Studies of American Fungi. Mushrooms, Edible, Poisonous, etc. It is a cellular, flowerless plant, nourished by the mycelium which permeates the soil or other substances on which the fungus or mushroom grows. The Mushroom, Edible and Otherwise Its Habitat and its Time of Growth Showing mycelium in various stages of development, groups of spores and free spores. Essentials of Diseases of the Skin Including the Syphilodermata Arranged in the Form of Questions and Answers Prepared Especially for Students of Medicine But when, in cutting the tuber, the parenchyma occupied by the mycelium is exposed to the contact of the air, it covers itself with conidia-bearing branches at the end of from twenty-four to forty-eight hours. Fungi: Their Nature and Uses Further it may also be possible for spores or bits of mycelium to be transported upward in the sap stream and cause new infections higher up in the tree. Northern Nut Growers Association Report of the Proceedings at the 43rd Annual Meeting Rockport, Indiana, August 25, 26 and 27, 1952 In places the mycelium forms rope-like strands, at first white in color, but later becoming dark brown and shining. Studies of American Fungi. Mushrooms, Edible, Poisonous, etc. It is gregarious, often many stems growing from one mass of mycelium. The Mushroom, Edible and Otherwise Its Habitat and its Time of Growth The fungus, consisting of mycelium and spores, the latter showing a marked tendency to aggregate, invades the superficial portion of the epidermis. Essentials of Diseases of the Skin Including the Syphilodermata Arranged in the Form of Questions and Answers Prepared Especially for Students of Medicine Although in other species chlamydospores are formed in such places on the mycelium, nothing of the kind has been traced in this species, more than here indicated. Fungi: Their Nature and Uses At first this mould forms webby, creeping filaments, known in botanical language as mycelium. The $100 Prize Essay on the Cultivation of the Potato. Prize offered by W. T. Wylie and awarded to D. H. Compton. How to Cook the Potato, Furnished by Prof. Blot. Having started at a given spot the mycelium consumes the food material in the soil suitable for it, and the plants for the first year appear in a group. Studies of American Fungi. Mushrooms, Edible, Poisonous, etc. The ground where the mushroom grew is rendered unfit for mushrooms again, the spores fall upon the ground and the mycelium spreads out from this point, consequently each year the ring is growing larger. The Mushroom, Edible and Otherwise Its Habitat and its Time of Growth The spores sprout and proliferate rapidly, the gray mycelia covering the garden, and at the end of each thread is a little knobbed body filled with liquid. Edge of the Jungle The spore slightly augments in size, then opens, generally at one or other extremity, sometimes at two, or at any point on its surface, in order to pass the mycelium tubes. Fungi: Their Nature and Uses Under favorable conditions of warmth and moisture, the mycelium spreads very rapidly. The $100 Prize Essay on the Cultivation of the Potato. Prize offered by W. T. Wylie and awarded to D. H. Compton. How to Cook the Potato, Furnished by Prof. Blot. The appearance of the fungus in rings is due to the mode of growth of the mycelium or spawn in the soil. Studies of American Fungi. Mushrooms, Edible, Poisonous, etc. Frequently it will have the appearance of growing from the ground, but a careful examination will reveal a piece of wood of some kind, which serves as a host for the mycelium. The Mushroom, Edible and Otherwise Its Habitat and its Time of Growth We brought pieces of the bark of these trees into the laboratory and made cultures and obtained the typical mycelium of chestnut blight. Northern Nut Growers Association, Report of the Proceedings at the Seventh Annual Meeting Washington, D. C. September 8 and 9, 1916. At first simple, without septa, and granular in the interior, above all at the extremity, these tubes, the rudiment of the mycelium, are not long in elongating, in branching, and later in having partitions. Fungi: Their Nature and Uses The first time I looked at them they were enmeshed in mold mycelium. Northern Nut Growers Association Report of the Proceedings at the Fifteenth Annual Meeting New York City, September 3, 4 and 5, 1924 Where the plants appear only in the arc of a circle, something has happened to check or destroy the mycelium in the remaining arc of the circle. Studies of American Fungi. Mushrooms, Edible, Poisonous, etc. This plant will be distinguished usually by the amount of white mycelium at the base of the stem. The Mushroom, Edible and Otherwise Its Habitat and its Time of Growth Our utmost efforts have never rendered mycelium in a mushroom-bearing condition perennial. Mushrooms: how to grow them a practical treatise on mushroom culture for profit and pleasure The branches of the mycelium which do not bear oogonia apply their obtuse extremities against the growing oogonia; this extremity swells, and, by a transverse partition, separates itself from the supporting tube. Fungi: Their Nature and Uses Much more disastrous results can be traced directly to the action of the mycelium in the cortex. Scientific American Supplement, No. 664, September 22,1888 The base of the stem is covered with deep blue mycelium which retains its color in age, but disappears on drying after a time. Studies of American Fungi. Mushrooms, Edible, Poisonous, etc. Stem equal, solid, colored like the pileus, the mycelium white, often forming white, branching, root-like fibers. The Mushroom, Edible and Otherwise Its Habitat and its Time of Growth The ills to which the mycelium is subject are not at all fully understood. Mushrooms: how to grow them a practical treatise on mushroom culture for profit and pleasure One or two are developed from a kind of Sclerotium, which is in fact a compact perennial mycelium. Fungi: Their Nature and Uses When fairly thick stems or branches have the mycelium on one side only, the cambium is injured locally, and the thickening is of course partial. Scientific American Supplement, No. 664, September 22,1888 It disorganizes and breaks down the tissues of the root here, providing a space for a thicker growth of the mycelium as it becomes older. Studies of American Fungi. Mushrooms, Edible, Poisonous, etc. Stem same color as pileus but paler, cartilaginous; floccose from loose threads or, in some cases, abundant threads over the surface; becoming hollow, base bulbous, the extreme base covered with whitish mycelium. The Mushroom, Edible and Otherwise Its Habitat and its Time of Growth Any impure matter in the bed with which the mycelium comes in contact will destroy the spawn and fogg off the young mushrooms. Mushrooms: how to grow them a practical treatise on mushroom culture for profit and pleasure Some species of Peziza are developed from the curious masses of compact mycelium called Sclerotia. Fungi: Their Nature and Uses If the mycelium is confined to one side of the stem, a flat or depressed spreading wound arises; if this extends all round, the parts above must die. Scientific American Supplement, No. 664, September 22,1888 Here it forms fan-like sheets of mycelium which advance along both away from the tree and towards the trunk. Studies of American Fungi. Mushrooms, Edible, Poisonous, etc. The mycelium of this species will frequently be found in the hearts of trees and remain there for years before the tree is injured sufficiently for the mycelium to come to the surface. The Mushroom, Edible and Otherwise Its Habitat and its Time of Growth A bed or part of a bed in capital working order is selected and broken up and the cakes of manure thoroughly matted up with the active mycelium are selected for spawning the fresh beds. Mushrooms: how to grow them a practical treatise on mushroom culture for profit and pleasure Year after year, so long as he resided on the premises, he counted upon and gathered several specimens of the puff-ball, the mycelium continuing to produce them year after year. Fungi: Their Nature and Uses The mycelium and the spores were healthy and were affecting the new trees in quite the same manner as the year before and as in other parts of the state. Northern Nut Growers Association, Report of the Proceedings at the Third Annual Meeting Lancaster, Pennsylvania, December 18 and 19, 1912 In time the mycelium has spread over a considerable area, from which nutriment enough is supplied for the formation of the fruiting condition. Studies of American Fungi. Mushrooms, Edible, Poisonous, etc. The base is slender, round, and frequently pitted; mycelium rather plentiful, fibrous and thread-like. The Mushroom, Edible and Otherwise Its Habitat and its Time of Growth The dry, fresh droppings are the very best material for starting the mycelium into growth. Mushrooms: how to grow them a practical treatise on mushroom culture for profit and pleasure In this condition the mycelium of one species so much resembles that of another, that no accurate determination can be made. Fungi: Their Nature and Uses Another problem in relation to tree treatment may be added, that is, the relation of spores and mycelium to toxic agents. Northern Nut Growers Association, Report of the Proceedings at the Third Annual Meeting Lancaster, Pennsylvania, December 18 and 19, 1912 The mycelium enters at wounds where limbs are broken off, and grows for years in the heart wood, disorganizing it and causing it to decay. Studies of American Fungi. Mushrooms, Edible, Poisonous, etc. The peridium is obovoid, with a short base, the mycelium forming a cord like a root. The Mushroom, Edible and Otherwise Its Habitat and its Time of Growth Such manure ferments well, makes up nicely into beds, the mycelium runs well in it, and good mushrooms are produced from it. Mushrooms: how to grow them a practical treatise on mushroom culture for profit and pleasure If the process goes on, this mycelium gives rise to the stem and cap of an agaricoid fungus, completing the vegetative system. Fungi: Their Nature and Uses This increased growth has not had any appreciable effect upon the rapidity of spread of the blight mycelium. Northern Nut Growers Association, Report of the Proceedings at the Third Annual Meeting Lancaster, Pennsylvania, December 18 and 19, 1912 It is easily recognized by the reddish cottony layer of mycelium threads which cover the entire plant when young, and form a veil which covers the gills at this time. Studies of American Fungi. Mushrooms, Edible, Poisonous, etc. The peridium is turbinate, depressed above; the base short and obconic, or more elongated and tapering, or subcylindric, arising from a fibrous mycelium. The Mushroom, Edible and Otherwise Its Habitat and its Time of Growth What practical mushroom growers call spawn, botanists term mycelium. Mushrooms: how to grow them a practical treatise on mushroom culture for profit and pleasure In many of the moulds we have miniature representatives of higher plants in the mycelium or roots, stem, branches, and at length capsules bearing sporidia, which correspond to seeds. Fungi: Their Nature and Uses By frequent examination, however, diseased spots may be found on the tree where the mycelium of the fungus is still in the upper layers of the bark. Northern Nut Growers Association, Report of the Proceedings at the Third Annual Meeting Lancaster, Pennsylvania, December 18 and 19, 1912 By stripping off the bark from decaying logs where these fungi are growing, the mycelium is often found in great abundance. Studies of American Fungi. Mushrooms, Edible, Poisonous, etc. The peridium is globe-like, sessile, with a stout mycelium, a cortex thin, white at first, then brown, forming a smooth continuous coat, breaking up at maturity and rapidly disappearing. The Mushroom, Edible and Otherwise Its Habitat and its Time of Growth These bricks and flakes are completely permeated with the mushroom mycelium. Mushrooms: how to grow them a practical treatise on mushroom culture for profit and pleasure The plants here included may be described under three parts, the mycelium, the peridium, and the sporangia. Fungi: Their Nature and Uses This spraying cannot reach the mycelium in the cambium layer; if the disease has been carried in by a beetle or woodpecker your spraying would be ineffective. Northern Nut Growers Association, Report of the Proceedings at the Third Annual Meeting Lancaster, Pennsylvania, December 18 and 19, 1912 In fact, the mycelium is largely if not wholly responsible for the rapid disintegration of the wood. Studies of American Fungi. Mushrooms, Edible, Poisonous, etc. The peridium is depressed globose, with a fibrous mycelium. The Mushroom, Edible and Otherwise Its Habitat and its Time of Growth Prominent yellowish threads or veins are a sign that the mycelium had started to grow and been killed. Mushrooms: how to grow them a practical treatise on mushroom culture for profit and pleasure The mycelium is often plentiful, stout, rigid, interlacing, and coloured, running over the surface of the soil, or amongst the vegetable débris on which the fungi establish themselves. Fungi: Their Nature and Uses Wherever this vegetative stage, technically known as mycelium, penetrates, the bark is killed; and of course, you all know what that means. Northern Nut Growers Association Report of the Proceedings at the Second Annual Meeting Ithaca, New York, December 14 and 15, 1911 In living trees the mycelium of certain bracket fungi enters through a wound and grows into the heart wood. Studies of American Fungi. Mushrooms, Edible, Poisonous, etc. The mycelium of this plant is especially peculiar, being composed of a bundle of root-like strands, translucent and jelly-like when young and fresh, but becoming tough and hard. The Mushroom, Edible and Otherwise Its Habitat and its Time of Growth If the spawn looks very good, and the lumps are large do not plant them quite so close as when the spawn shows less mycelium in it, and the lumps are small. Mushrooms: how to grow them a practical treatise on mushroom culture for profit and pleasure The peridia are seated upon this mycelium, and in most instances are at length open above, taking the form of cups, or beakers. Fungi: Their Nature and Uses If we find those two things, the pustules and the mottled mycelium, we can very safely say that this disease is present. Northern Nut Growers Association Report of the Proceedings at the Second Annual Meeting Ithaca, New York, December 14 and 15, 1911 Now the heart wood is dead and cannot long resist the entrance and destructive action of the mycelium. Studies of American Fungi. Mushrooms, Edible, Poisonous, etc. The mycelial layer is thin, tearing away as the plant expands, the bark or skin falling with the mycelium. The Mushroom, Edible and Otherwise Its Habitat and its Time of Growth We can keep mushroom mycelium in active growth the year round, and year after year, providing we never let it bear mushrooms. Mushrooms: how to grow them a practical treatise on mushroom culture for profit and pleasure There is no proper excipulum or peridium, and the spores spring direct from a more compacted portion of the mycelium, or from a cushion-like stroma of small cells. Fungi: Their Nature and Uses No traces of a mycelium were visible; the plants had come to maturity, fruited, and withered away, leaving only the spores. Journal of the Proceedings of the Linnean Society - Vol. 3 Zoology The illustration shows very well the habit of growth of the mycelium. Studies of American Fungi. Mushrooms, Edible, Poisonous, etc. In Figure 3 is a representation of the mycelium of the small pear-shaped puff-ball with a number of small white knobs marking the beginning of the puff-ball. The Mushroom, Edible and Otherwise Its Habitat and its Time of Growth This is done by taking the mycelium, just before it begins bearing, from one manure bed and plant it in another, and so on from bed to bed. Mushrooms: how to grow them a practical treatise on mushroom culture for profit and pleasure Besides these, other reproductive bodies are generated upon the mycelium, within the tissues of the plant, in the form of globose oogonia, or resting spores, which, when mature, also enclose great numbers of zoospores. Fungi: Their Nature and Uses That the mycelium in the small lesions was unquestionably the Endothia mycelium, was shown by the appearance of the mycelium, and the presence of the Endothia pustules in many of the spots. Northern Nut Growers Association, Report Of The Proceedings At The Tenth Annual Meeting. Battle Creek, Michigan, December 9 and 10, 1919 The stem is hollow even at this young stage, and a slender cord of mycelium extends down the center of the tube thus formed, as is shown in the sections. Studies of American Fungi. Mushrooms, Edible, Poisonous, etc. The mycelium exposed here is very similar to the mycelium of all mushrooms. The Mushroom, Edible and Otherwise Its Habitat and its Time of Growth At every fresh transplanting the mycelium exerts itself into renewed growth, for it must become a strong plant before it has strength enough to produce and support a mushroom. Mushrooms: how to grow them a practical treatise on mushroom culture for profit and pleasure The mycelium, of coloured jointed threads, overlays and penetrates the matrix; from this arise erect, rigid, and usually jointed threads, of a dark brown, nearly black colour at the base, but paler towards the apex. Fungi: Their Nature and Uses The color of the mycelium is generally white, but it may also be yellow or red. Among the Mushrooms A Guide For Beginners Here, in the plant at the right hand, the "cord" of mycelium is plainly seen running through the hollow stem. Studies of American Fungi. Mushrooms, Edible, Poisonous, etc. In germination the spores send out slender threads which Botanists call mycelium, but which common readers know as spawn. The Mushroom, Edible and Otherwise Its Habitat and its Time of Growth These bodies are, in fact, the outer shells of so many acorns, embedded in and hollowed out by the mycelium of Polyporus sulphureus. Scientific American Supplement, No. 643, April 28, 1888 Deeply seated on the mycelium, within the substance of the foster plant, other reproductive bodies, called oogonia, originate. Fungi: Their Nature and Uses What is called 'Mushroom Spawn' consists of certain materials from the stable and the field, mixed and prepared in such a manner as to favour the development of the mycelium of the Mushroom. The Culture of Vegetables and Flowers From Seeds and Roots 16th Edition So closely are they applied to the stem in most cases that threads of mycelium pass from the stem to the edge of the gills. Studies of American Fungi. Mushrooms, Edible, Poisonous, etc. They usually grow in a very crowded condition, many plants growing from one mat of mycelium. The Mushroom, Edible and Otherwise Its Habitat and its Time of Growth In the infested timber are to observed radial and other crevices filled with the dense felt-like mycelium formed by the common growth of the innumerable branched filaments. Scientific American Supplement, No. 643, April 28, 1888 “It spreads its mycelium in the tissue which is becoming brown,” he writes, “and this shows at first essentially the same construction and growth as that of the mycelium filaments of Aspergillus.” Fungi: Their Nature and Uses From good spawn the films of mycelium will begin to extend within a week. The Culture of Vegetables and Flowers From Seeds and Roots 16th Edition Mushroom Spawn is in the Form of Strands of Mycelium.—Now in the mushrooms the threads of mycelium are usually interlaced into definite strands or cords, especially when the mycelium is well developed. Studies of American Fungi. Mushrooms, Edible, Poisonous, etc. The stem, arising from an abundant white-floccose mycelium, is long, slender, tapering slightly upward, smooth, brown and shining, white at the apex. The Mushroom, Edible and Otherwise Its Habitat and its Time of Growth This is a block of wood containing an enormous irregularly spheroidal mass of the white felted mycelium of this fungus, Polyporus sulphureus. Scientific American Supplement, No. 643, April 28, 1888 The mycelium, which grows so exuberantly in the leaf, often brings forth many other productions, which are called sclerotia, and are, according to their nature, a thick bulbous tissue of mycelium filaments. Fungi: Their Nature and Uses But it may attract flies, and it certainly will interfere with the movements of the mycelium at that particular spot, and actually prevent the production of any more Mushrooms. The Culture of Vegetables and Flowers From Seeds and Roots 16th Edition In this way the strand of mycelium increases in length. Studies of American Fungi. Mushrooms, Edible, Poisonous, etc. If the small bulb at the base of the stem is examined, it will be found to be formed chiefly of mycelium rolled together around the base. The Mushroom, Edible and Otherwise Its Habitat and its Time of Growth The presence of the mycelium in wood tissue can readily be told by the discolored and disintegrated appearance of the wood. Studies of Trees They spring from a mycelium which is spread in the dung, and appear singly upon it. Fungi: Their Nature and Uses This Rhizoctonia is a mere spawn or mycelium, a mass of rusty-brown material like a thick coating of spider's web of a red tint. The Culture of Vegetables and Flowers From Seeds and Roots 16th Edition The Button Stage of the Mushroom.—The "spawn" stage, or strands of mycelium, is the vegetative or growing stage of the mushroom. Studies of American Fungi. Mushrooms, Edible, Poisonous, etc. The stem is rather long, often somewhat thickened or bulbous at the base, at first stuffed, then hollow, white, the ring is scaly on the under side, mycelium whitish, forming slender branching root-like strings. The Mushroom, Edible and Otherwise Its Habitat and its Time of Growth If the fruiting body is removed, another soon takes its place, but if the entire mycelium is cut out, the fungus will never come back. Studies of Trees If the latter be sown in a suitable medium, for example, in a solution of sugar, they swell, and shoot forth germinating utricles, which quickly grow to mycelia, which bear sporangia. Fungi: Their Nature and Uses And from this also the new ferment fluid constantly produced, and tracking along the tissues of the branches, conveys the Coryneum infection beyond the places in which its mycelium can be found. Scientific American Supplement, No. 441, June 14, 1884. It is made up of countless numbers of delicate, tiny, white, jointed threads, the mycelium. Studies of American Fungi. Mushrooms, Edible, Poisonous, etc. We might say that we here had to do with numerous mycelia moulded in a slightly colored resin. Scientific American Supplement, No. 481, March 21, 1885 Fungous diseases attacking a cavity produce a mass of fibers, known as the “mycelium,” that penetrate the body of the tree or limb on which the cavity is located. Studies of Trees Attempts to prove that the conidia and sporangia-bearers originate on one and the same mycelium filament may possibly hereafter succeed. Fungi: Their Nature and Uses The whole mass of rice becomes in a short time permeated by the soft white shining mycelium, which imparts to it the odor of apple or pine-apple. Scientific American Supplement, No. 531, March 6, 1886 The white mycelium threads grow in the bread and absorb food substances for the mold. Studies of American Fungi. Mushrooms, Edible, Poisonous, etc. It is not rare, however, to see the individual sporangia perfectly isolated and disembarrassed of their filament of mycelium floating in the water. Scientific American Supplement, No. 385, May 19, 1883 Radiating from these fruiting bodies into the tissues of the tree are a large number of minute fibers, comprising the mycelium of the fungus. Studies of Trees They here germinate and produce a mycelium which exactly resembles that of the Mucor mucedo, and, above all, they produce in profusion the typical sporangia of the same on its bearers. Fungi: Their Nature and Uses Chemical investigation showed that the Aspergillus mycelium transforms the starch into glucose, and thus plays the part of a diastase. Scientific American Supplement, No. 531, March 6, 1886 Strands of mycelium extending radially in the wood of the same living hemlock spruce shown in Fig. Studies of American Fungi. Mushrooms, Edible, Poisonous, etc. The smallest portion of a filament of mycelium evidently possesses the faculty of producing the new individuals. Scientific American Supplement, No. 385, May 19, 1883 The mycelium is the most important part of the fungous growth. Studies of Trees The latter are till now alone reproductions of conidia-bearers, and have never been observed on mycelia which have grown out of conidia. Fungi: Their Nature and Uses The fermentation is caused by the mycelium of this fungus before the development of the fructification. Scientific American Supplement, No. 531, March 6, 1886 Mycelium of the Wood Destroying Fungi.—While the fruit bodies are on the outside of the trunk, the mycelium, or vegetative part of the fungus, is within the wood or bark. Studies of American Fungi. Mushrooms, Edible, Poisonous, etc. When they are perfectly developed, they are distinctly separated from their filament of mycelium by a septum—that is to say, by limiting lines plainly marked. Scientific American Supplement, No. 385, May 19, 1883 In 1860-65 I saw the grape in a piteous plight: the huge bunches were composed of dwarfed and wilted berries, furred and cobwebbed with the foul mycelium. To the Gold Coast for Gold A Personal Narrative in Two Volumes.—Volume I Its mycelium represents at first strong branched utricles without partitions; the branches are of the higher order, mostly divided into rich and very fine-pointed ramuli. Fungi: Their Nature and Uses FUNGI.—These are common parasitical plants, originating in the production of copious filamentous threads, called the mycelium, or spawn. The Book of Household Management Mycelium of Coal Mine Fungi.—The mycelium of the mushrooms and bracket fungi grows in wonderful profusion in these abandoned coal mines. Studies of American Fungi. Mushrooms, Edible, Poisonous, etc. The filaments of mycelium, under the same magnitude, appear exceedingly thin and finer than a hair. Scientific American Supplement, No. 385, May 19, 1883 According to De Bary*, when the mycelium penetrates a bud beginning to elongate, the shoot developed from it grows vertically upwards. The Power of Movement in Plants Some species of Isaria and Torrubia also affect the larvæ and pupæ of moths and butterflies, converting the whole interior into a mass of mycelium, and fructifying in a clavate head. Fungi: Their Nature and Uses As I thought that the state of the anthers might be due to some fungoid growth, I examined them both in the bud and mature state, but could find no trace of mycelium. The Different Forms of Flowers on Plants of the Same Species This abundance of moisture, with the favorable temperature, permits the mycelium to grow on the surface of the wood structures as readily as within the wood. Studies of American Fungi. Mushrooms, Edible, Poisonous, etc. Under favorable conditions, that is, with moisture, heat, and the presence of vegetable matter in decomposition, the filaments of mycelium increase in length. Scientific American Supplement, No. 385, May 19, 1883 This change can hardly be due to an increased flow of sap into the part; but the presence of the mycelium will have greatly disturbed its natural constitution. The Power of Movement in Plants If checked or disturbed, the process stops here, and only a mycelium of interwoven threads is produced. Fungi: Their Nature and Uses I imagine that in both cases the mycelium must consume all the matter on which it can subsist. More Letters of Charles Darwin — Volume 2 At the extreme edge of growth the mycelium presents a delicate fringe of the growing ends where the threads are interlaced uniformly over the entire area. Studies of American Fungi. Mushrooms, Edible, Poisonous, etc. At the base it penetrates to the inner bark, and from it the threads of mycelium branch in all directions, confined, however, to the bark, and not entering the woody tissues beneath. Fungi: Their Nature and Uses The spores have been transported upon young shoots of the juniper-tree, and have now commenced to produce some mycelium in the bark. Fungi: Their Nature and Uses The earliest condition in which the mushroom can be recognized as a vegetable entity is in that of the “spawn” or mycelium, which is essentially an agglomeration of vegetating spores. Fungi: Their Nature and Uses It is that of fairy rings, which are believed to spread from a centre, and when they intersect the intersecting portion dies out, as the mycelium cannot grow where it has grown during previous years. More Letters of Charles Darwin — Volume 2 But a little distance back from the edge, where the mycelium is older, the threads are growing in a different way. Studies of American Fungi. Mushrooms, Edible, Poisonous, etc. If a filament of mycelium could be isolated successfully, and a fertile thread, bearing the fruit of each form, could be traced from the same individual mycelium thread, the evidence would be conclusive. Fungi: Their Nature and Uses No one can have observed the mycelium of fungi at work on old stumps, twigs, and decayed wood, without being struck with the rapidity and certainty with which disintegration is being carried on. Fungi: Their Nature and Uses At certain privileged points of the mycelium, the threads seem to be aggregated, and become centres of vertical extension. Fungi: Their Nature and Uses Pray look to what he says about the leaf-carrying ant storing the leaves up in a minced state to generate mycelium, on which he supposes that the larvae feed. More Letters of Charles Darwin — Volume 2 These were formed by the attempt on the part of the mycelium at numerous places to develop strands at right angles to the surface of the door. Studies of American Fungi. Mushrooms, Edible, Poisonous, etc. We may allude, in passing, to another phase of destructiveness in the mycelium of fungi, which traverse the soil and interfere most injuriously with the growth of shrubs and trees. Fungi: Their Nature and Uses The cottony tufts of white mould, which were the first to appear, had an abundant mycelium, but the erect threads which sprang from this were for a long time sterile, and closely interlaced. Fungi: Their Nature and Uses Other forms of fruit have also been observed on the same mycelium. Fungi: Their Nature and Uses This same mould was also found in many cases growing in the same spots amongst Penicillium chartarum, but whether from the same mycelium could not be determined. Fungi: Their Nature and Uses The mycelium in this condition is very soft and perishable. Studies of American Fungi. Mushrooms, Edible, Poisonous, etc. The distinguishing features of this fungus consist in an extensive mycelium of delicate threads, from which arise numerous erect branches, bearing at the apex dark brown opaque spores. Fungi: Their Nature and Uses The spherical bodies, or perithecia, were seated on a plentiful hyaline mycelium. Fungi: Their Nature and Uses The mycelium is often nearly obsolete, and the short pedicels so evanescent, that a rusty or sooty powder represents the mature fungus, infesting the green parts of living plants. Fungi: Their Nature and Uses Somewhat intermediately, we might allude to the species of Sclerotium, which are usually compact, externally blackish, rounded or amorphous bodies, consisting of a cellular mass of the nature of a concentrated mycelium. Fungi: Their Nature and Uses Each thread of mycelium grows, or increases in length, at the end. Studies of American Fungi. Mushrooms, Edible, Poisonous, etc. From what is already known, however, we feel justified in the conclusion that the so-called species of Sclerotium are a sort of compact mycelium, from which, under favourable conditions, perfect fungi may be developed. Fungi: Their Nature and Uses In the selection of spawn this is an important item, that is, the presence of an abundance of "fiber" or mycelium. Studies of American Fungi. Mushrooms, Edible, Poisonous, etc. In both, the pseudospores are produced in tufts or clusters direct from the mycelium. Fungi: Their Nature and Uses On breaking the brick the great abundance of the "fiber" or whitish mycelium is seen all through it. Studies of American Fungi. Mushrooms, Edible, Poisonous, etc. The moisture, however, is abundant within the stumps or tree trunks, and the mycelium develops abundantly there. Studies of American Fungi. Mushrooms, Edible, Poisonous, etc. It is marked with numerous minute dots of a darker color than the ground color, formed of numerous small erect tufts of mycelium. Studies of American Fungi. Mushrooms, Edible, Poisonous, etc. It is through the action of the mycelium of mushrooms of every kind that the fallen forest leaves, as well as the trunks and branches, are converted into food for the living trees. Studies of American Fungi. Mushrooms, Edible, Poisonous, etc. Seated on the mycelium, at the first as little orange points, are the perithecia, which enlarge and become nearly black. Fungi: Their Nature and Uses The mycelium then grows in abundance in these rifts and forms broad and extensive sheets which resemble somewhat chamois skin and is called "punk." Studies of American Fungi. Mushrooms, Edible, Poisonous, etc. So one can understand how it is that deep down in these abandoned mines the mycelium grows profusely on the surface of doors and wood props. Studies of American Fungi. Mushrooms, Edible, Poisonous, etc. If the spawn has run well, a very delicate white "fiber," the mycelium, can be seen penetrating all through the material. Studies of American Fungi. Mushrooms, Edible, Poisonous, etc. In such cases there is not a sufficient amount of moisture to provide the water necessary for the growth of the mycelium. Studies of American Fungi. Mushrooms, Edible, Poisonous, etc. It should be observed that the parts of the wood which were most luminous were not only deeply penetrated by the more delicate parts of the mycelium, but were those which were most decomposed. Fungi: Their Nature and Uses The term is commonly used in a commercial sense of material in which the mycelium is growing. Studies of American Fungi. Mushrooms, Edible, Poisonous, etc. Still further back and covering the larger part of the sheet of mycelium lying on the surface of the door, are numerous long, delicate tassels hanging downward. Studies of American Fungi. Mushrooms, Edible, Poisonous, etc. The spore germinates and produces delicate threads, which branch and increase by growth in extent, and form the mycelium. Studies of American Fungi. Mushrooms, Edible, Poisonous, etc. For the nearer it is to the natural spawn, other things being equal, the more vigorous the mycelium, and the finer will be the mushrooms produced. Studies of American Fungi. Mushrooms, Edible, Poisonous, etc. As the parts which absorb nourishment from and consume the substance, they are called the mycelium. Fungi: Their Nature and Uses The accumulation of manure trodden down in these places and sometimes mixed with sawdust or earth, provided a congenial place for the growth of the mycelium. Studies of American Fungi. Mushrooms, Edible, Poisonous, etc. The well tramped material in which the mycelium grew here, when broken up, formed convenient blocks of spawn for storage and transportation, and probably led to the manufacture of brick spawn. Studies of American Fungi. Mushrooms, Edible, Poisonous, etc. But indoors the mycelium often runs to the surface of the bed, and there forms the numerous pinheads which are the beginnings of the mushrooms. Studies of American Fungi. Mushrooms, Edible, Poisonous, etc. The beds at this stage often present numerous clusters of the mycelium and these minute pinheads crowded very closely together.
