Logics in Fungal Mycelium Networks [PDF]
Logica Universalis, 2022 AbstractThe living mycelium networks are capable of efficient sensorial fusion over very large areas and distributed decision making. The information processing in the mycelium networks is implemented via propagation of electrical and chemical signals en pair with morphological changes in the mycelium structure.

Thermal Degradation and Fire Properties of Fungal Mycelium and Mycelium - Biomass Composite Materials [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2018 AbstractMycelium and mycelium-biomass composites are emerging as new sustainable materials with useful flame-retardant potentials. Here we report a detailed characterisation of the thermal degradation and fire properties of fungal mycelium and mycelium-biomass composites. Measurements and analyses are carried out on key parameters such as decomposition

Molecular breeding alters mycelium material properties in the white-rot fungus Pleurotus ostreatus [PDF]
Applied Microbiology and BiotechnologyMycelium-based materials derived from white-rot fungi have attracted increasing attention as sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives to conventional products. However, their mechanical strength and durability remain relatively inferior.

Morphology and mechanics of fungal mycelium [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2017 AbstractWe study a unique biomaterial developed from fungal mycelium, the vegetative part and the root structure of fungi. Mycelium has a filamentous network structure with mechanics largely controlled by filament elasticity and branching, and network density. We report the morphological and mechanical characterization of mycelium through an integrated

, 2020 MYCELIUM MILLENNIUM imagines a new era in which biological resources, specifically Fungi and Mycelium, are used to grow a collection of objects for everyday domestic rituals, merging biofabrication and traditional craft. The project is an effort to demystify the transformation of an organism to a biomaterial and at the same time raise questions of ...

Optimising in vitro culture conditions for the truffle Tuber brumale [PDF]
Botanica Serbica, 2023 The vegetative propagation of ectomycorrhizal truffle fungi is limited by their slow mycelial growth. Many factors including media, isolate genotypes and environmental conditions can alter fungal mycelial growth rates.

Coccidioides Species: A Review of Basic Research: 2022
Journal of Fungi, 2022 Coccidioides immitis and posadasii are closely related fungal species that cause coccidioidomycosis. These dimorphic organisms cause disease in immunocompetent as well as immunocompromised individuals and as much as 40% of the population is infected in ...

The Mycelium as a Network [PDF]
Microbiology Spectrum, 2017 ABSTRACTThe characteristic growth pattern of fungal mycelia as an interconnected network has a major impact on how cellular events operating on a micron scale affect colony behavior at an ecological scale. Network structure is intimately linked to flows of resources across the network that in turn modify the network architecture itself.
