Scaffold - a description of where the poisonousness of the fungus grows

What kind of mushrooms can not be found in nature. Some of them resemble a ball, others look like a miniature mace. There are those who, by their appearance, resemble corals. All of them can be combined into one group, whose name is strange mushrooms. Naturally, they are not similar to those many species that are customary to see in the forest, and therefore mushroom pickers, as a rule, bypass them simply by not paying any attention to them at all.

 Scrubber

One of the representatives of this group is a scrub or an ear. It really is shaped like an ear. It can also be compared with a saucer.

Prevalence

The mushroom chooses trunks and knots of deciduous trees for its growth. It was first described by a French botanist, mycologist and physician Joseph-Henri Levey. It happened back in 1948.North America and Europe are places of its distribution. It occurs in other places. You can not see it except in Antarctica. It grows from mid-autumn to the very beginning of winter. In some countries, for example, in Denmark, the mushroom is listed in the Red Book.

Most often, the fungus is characterized by group growth, but there are also single instances. The fungus can even use chips and sawdust as a substrate for its growth. Exercising its growth on a tree, the fungus determines the appearance of white wood rot. It can be found not only in the forest, but also in the garden and park.

Description

The fruit body is represented by a spindle-shaped or shell-shaped hat. Its dimensions are about 3-5 cm in diameter. If the mushroom grows on a substrate with a horizontal surface, then this is accompanied by the formation of the most bizarre forms, then the surface of the cap resembles felt, and when it rains, it becomes slippery to the touch. The young mushroom has a white cap with a slight gray tint, but when it becomes an adult, the color of its cap acquires a brown color.The leg is either absent altogether, or very weakly expressed.

The mushroom has the form of thin fissile and diverging plates. The plates may merge or unfold. When the fungus dries, the gap closes. This circumstance is a peculiar condition of adaptation with growth in those areas where climatic conditions cannot boast of an abundance of rain. The pulp of the fungus has an inexpressive smell, thin and dense in nature. The spore powder is white. When the fruit body is dry, it will retain its properties fairly well until next year.

The possibility of eating

The inhabitants of Europe and America do not use the shelter in the diet. But this does not mean that he has signs of toxicity. They have no fungus. Most likely the reason for this is that the mushroom has a rather stiff consistency. The Chinese, Hispanics, people of the African continent not only use this mushroom for their food, but also successfully cultivate it.

Some interesting facts

 Schizophyllum commune
This species is an excellent model for studying the peculiarities of the process of sexual reproduction of fungi.In ordinary species of animals and plants can be observed only two sexes. This is due to the presence of two alleles of the same gene. In comparison with them, this type of mushroom has 28 thousand floors.

In tropical conditions, all fleshy mushrooms very quickly rot, and the sheller due to the density of its tissue is not exposed to this phenomenon.

This type of fungus in humans can cause various diseases. First of all, it concerns the children's population, which is characterized by the presence of immunodeficiency states. They may develop sinusitis. It is very difficult to diagnose these diseases, because the mold fungus from the genus Aspergillus can cause just an incredibly large amount of mycoses.

Medicinal properties

The fungus is distinguished by the content of a special bioactive polysaccharide, which is characterized by a number of therapeutic properties. It causes the fight against germs, inflammation, tumor processes. Based on it, a number of drugs have been developed that allow one to combat the occurrence of malignant neoplasms. In addition, it is part of many sunscreens, anti-acne.

 Medicinal properties of schielelist

The results of laboratory tests prove the effectiveness of this polysaccharide in the fight against sarcoma. It also increases the effectiveness of interventions associated with the use of radiation therapy in the fight against cancer. This polysaccharide has proven its effectiveness in combating various skin forms of cancer. This is because it increases the number of natural cells in the body, which act as killers of malignant cells.

This fungus has an antibacterial effect and fights inflammation perfectly. Its use is effective against HIV-infected people.

South American shamans use this mushroom as an energy source.

Collecting and harvesting

Collect mushrooms fresh or when they are dry. If these mushrooms are dried, they will not lose their useful properties for 50 years. But mushrooms are stored in places inaccessible to children. Otherwise, inhalation of the spore mass by them may lead to sinusitis.
