Researchers at Cornell University tapped into fungal mycelia to power a pair of proof-of-concept robots. Mycelia, the underground fungal network that can sprout mushrooms as its above-ground fruit ...

Mycelium bricks offer a sustainable alternative to traditional construction materials, despite current limitations in ...

“Those are the regions where fungal mycelia are bumping up against each other and basically battling for turf,” Hibbett says. Wood-eating fungi leave telltale signs. Brown-rot fungi typically ...

Fungi serve as the digestive and nervous systems of the forest floor. Their sprawling subterranean mycelia decompose organic detritus into usable nutrients. Mycelia also communicate with soil ...

It develops white, almost sterile mycelia on Czapec-agar, with the reverse of the colonies varying from straw-yellow to brown with age.

DARPA wants space structures that are grown rather than built, and the building blocks for these new structures are living ...

Fungi aren’t plants, but Mishra is interested in one of fungi’s most plantlike features, mycelia. These rootlike structures tunnel through soil for nutrients and can detect en­vironmental ...

Fungi made Earth’s land liveable by building ... Oyarte Galvez and colleagues investigated the balance in mycelia between maximizing the efficiency of the transport and minimizing the cost ...
