#Fungi #Gardening
A pair of "Shaggy Mane" on a customers lawn today.


#News: #Study finds a miraculous #fungi can transform food waste into delicious #food like #cheese, miso and #beer. We don't need to destroy rainforests and the ocean for food, here's a solution #BoycottPalmOil #Boycott4Wildlife https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2024/08/240829132426.htm

Some material experiments with mycelium substrate growing in sawdust and flour, to make fungi sculptures from moulds.

I am using a proprietary mix from the Dutch company Kineco https://kineco.bio/, although I know I can potentially make this myself with some spores and sawdust.

Will report back in about 7 days with whatever comes of these.

Do you know MediaDive, the world’s largest collection of cultivation media for microorganisms 🧫? It contains detailed introductions how to prepare the medium you need for your strain. In addition to the provision of all media used at the DSMZ, you can also create your own media or search for a medium suitable for your strain. Give it a try 😉

A refined single-cell sequencing technique provides insight into how pathogenic #fungi respond to drugs. #Candida #Microbiology https://elifesciences.org/digests/81406/investigating-antifungal-tolerance?utm_source=mastodon&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=organic


Marine #microorganisms are crucial for #ocean health.

#Bacteria, #archaea, #fungi, #algae and #viruses make up most of the biomass in the seas and form the base of marine food webs.

They support nutrient cycling and drive crucial biogeochemical processes, including key steps in the carbon, nitrogen and silicon cycles.

Ocean modelling must evolve to take their biological complexity into account.

We are looking for a #Postdoc (f/m/x) as of 1 Feb 2024, for a project using #metagenomics to follow microbial colonization and antibiotics gene transmission between prokaryotes and microeukaryotes (#fungi and #protists) on #microplastics > https://karriere-igb.softgarden.io/job/37216012/Postdoc-position-in-microbial-OMICS-and-microplastics-fixed-term-for-36-months-m-f-x-?jobDbPVId=97498273&l=de

Gotta love the term "threshold of lichenisation" - sounds dramatic. Cool study!

"The Mushroom Color Atlas is a resource and reference for everyone curious about mushrooms and the beautiful and subtle colors derived from dyeing with mushrooms. But it is also the start of a journey and a point of departure, introducing you to the kaleidoscopic fungi kingdom and our connection to it." https://www.mushroomcoloratlas.com/ #mushrooms #fungi #mycological #atlas #environment #network #art

The burning question about #fungi: what happens to them in extreme heat? https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2023/jan/09/fungi-extreme-heat-aoe

#Scientists in #Italy are testing the impact of #fire and #drought to learn how the changing #climate affects #underground fungal networks.


We are thrilled to release Fungal, a variable fork of DejaVu Sans that can grow like mycelium. Fungal is the fruit of an ongoing collaboration between @triple and @raphael , and is part of the larger project https://fungal.page.
