Basidiomycota Part 2: The Mushroom Life Cycle

  • Опубликовано: 30 июл 2024
  • We've looked at two of the three subphyla within the phylum Basidiomycota. But before we dive into all the different amazing types of mushrooms, let's get a better understanding of their life cycle, as this will provide important context for our further study of mycology. How do mushrooms reproduce, exactly? It's quite different from the ways that both plants and animals reproduce, in fact. Let's get a closer look!
    Script by William Marcus
    Much of the mushroom photography was provided by Stephen Axford of Planet Fungi. For more dazzling footage check out Stephen's fungi safari in the forests of the Himalayas documenting over 200 species of mushrooms! I'm serious, it's incredible, go watch the trailer: www.planetfungi.movie/

      It is simple: spores and micellia are haploid like sperm, pollen and egg cells. Mushroom is the result of fusion of two haploid cells, like a fertilized egg. (creationists are obsessed with gender. What gender is a spore?) Only task is meiosis producing new spores

    I've only ever heard mushroom cultivators describe the mechanism of sporulation as something to do with water and pressure (I can't recall the specific term/phrase), so I'm really grateful you explained it in this video -- ballistopory is INSANE!!!
    Ballistopory is one of those discoveries that I bet triggered a lot of scientists to once again wonder about the existence of a higher power or a great programmer (in the case of simulation theory) 😂 Nature is juat incredible. What a marvel.

    Hi Dave, question if you will. When one takes a clone of a certain FUNgus and transfers it to agar, you will typically get more than one strain growing. How does this work? Do other hyphae that don't end up fusing into the diploid cells just get "swept up" in the entangled mycelia and brought along for the ride, or are the genetics more complicated? Thanks and phenomenal work. Best explainer around.

  • @blahblahlaboratory9381

    Dear professor Dave and the comminity, do the neighboring heterokariotyc mycelium colonies, of the same parent fruit, share nutrients with it's brothers or they just exist as separate colonies and compete for a substrate?

    somatogamy (noun,no plural) - the fusion of two somatic hyphae acting as gametes for two sexually compatible mycelia. This is the most reduced form of sexual reproduction. It is very common, if indeed typical for basidiomycetes, but not prevalent in ascomycetes.

    What I am trying to find out is what compounds/elements the spores/mycelium 'ingest' in order to create mass...and which chemical reactions are used in the process. my best guess is that an oxide is produced in order to create the fruiting body, similar to that NileRed video of combining mercury and aluminum to form aluminum oxide and you see the oxide 'grow' wildly out of control creating more mass than one might think possible. Watching that video looks just like a mushroom growing from a single spot underneath the top layer of substrate. Any info would be appreciated since I am not having luck finding the answers to these questions just yet.
