Shelf mushroom grows on forest tree over FingerLakes gorge #308623554
Description
Mushrooms growing on living trees can be a sign of rot, damage, or disease of the treeâs heartwood. Mushrooms are the fruiting bodies of myceliumâthe network of fungal threads infecting the treeâs trunk. Mushrooms growing on trees feed on the lignin and cellulose present inside the wood. Trees and their roots provide the carbohydrates and nutrients required for the fungiâs growth. Artistâs Bracket (Ganoderma applanatum)
