	Cup fungus - Biocrawler (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		Cup fungi are fungi (Ascomycota: Family Pezizaceae) which produce a mushroom that tends to grow in the shape of a "cup".
		They may be vividly colored, like the scarlet cup, which is often one of the first signs of spring where it grows.
		While most cup fungi are not poisonous, as with all mushroom hunting, one should never consume a mushroom without having a positive identification of it first.

	Fungus Summary
		The spore of the fungus serves the same purpose as the seed of the green plants, but the spore is composed of only one or several simple cells.
		In the mushrooms, boletes, cup fungi, and morels, for example, the nearly mature spores are forcibly discharged at maturity from the spore-bearing surface.
		A fungus (plural fungi) is a eukaryotic organism that digests its food externally and absorbs the nutrient molecules into its cells.

	Fungus - MSN Encarta
		Fungi were initially classified in the Plant Kingdom, and the field of fungus study, or mycology, developed as a branch of botany.
		In rare cases, the fungus penetrates internal tissues, such as the bones, joints, and brain, producing tumors that later form abscesses or ulcers.
		The fungus causing histoplasmosis lives as a parasite in certain tissue and blood cells of the infected person.

	The Amazing Kingdom Of Fungi
		This is a fowl-smelling fungus that attracts flies to its spore-laden, slimy body, thus increasing the odds of its spores being dispersed to new habitats.
		In mutualistic mycorrhizal associations, the roots furnish the fungus with sugars and amino acids, while the fungus facilitates in the absorption of water and mineral nutrients by the tree.
		Generally, poisonous mushrooms are characterized by the presence of white spores, a cuplike volva at the base of the stalk, a ring or annulus on the stalk, and remnants of the universal veil on the umbrellalike cap.

		The idea behind any splash cup is to disseminate seeds or spores as far away from the parent as possible by the force of falling water.
		The splash cup is the outside portion of the fungus's spore-producing organ.

		These striking cup fungi vary in colour from pale orange through to a very deep orange-red inside the cup, while the outer surface is paler and covered in a very fine down.
		The cup is typically 2 to 4 cm tall and is attached to the soil by mycelial threads and without a visible stipe.
		The pale outer surface is infertile; the spores are produced on the shiny inner surface of the cup.

	Springcreek Botany Trip F00
		Lichens are a mutualistic symbiotic relationship between a fungus (usually a sac or cup fungus called an ascomycete - division Ascomycota) that produces acids to release minerals from the rock and an alga (usually a green alga - division Chlorophyta) that produces carbohydrates.
		Of course most of this fungus (division Basidiomycota) grows inside of the tree in the form of a filamentous mycelium which we usually do not see, rather we see the spore producing structure (in this case called a conk) when environmental conditions are appropriate.
		The particular type of fungus on this tree is often referred to as a conk or shelf fungus.

	Summary of Morel Evolution.
		There are cup fungi related to the morel, and they would have undergone similar evolution during earlier ice age cycles.
		University scientists assume morels are ancient cup fungi, because the tissue has ascospores embedded within it, as cup fungi always do; and they associate the pits on the surface with the cup shape.
		The cup shape is starting to form on some morels as an indent near the top but off to the side.

		This indent would be the early evolution of a "cup fungus." It demonstrates the function of the cup which ascosporogenous fleshy fungi usually have.
		For these reasons, the cup shape is the form toward which fleshy ascomycetes must usually evolve, and there is a convergence of evolution at that point.
		The cup fungi which are related to Morchella thereby appear to be more similar to Helvella than Morchella, at least in terms of the described characteristics, and therefore they may have evolved from that genus.

		The cup is a dikaryotic structure (N + N) formed when two mating strains of (1N) hyphae fuse together and grow into a "fruiting body".
		The ascospores are produced after the two different nuclei in the dikaryotic cup fuse together and then divide through meiosis into four daughter cells.
		Most of the fungus is underground -- a mass of hyphae known as a mycelium.

	Fungi dispersal and spore release
		Often when you pick up fresh cup fungi the mechanical disturbance of picking up a specimen is enough to jolt thousands of mature asci into releasing their spores and, if you are attentive, you will see a small cloud of spores arising from the fungal surface.
		In the latter the asci line the surface of an open cup or disk but in the flask fungi the asci are contained within a chamber that has only a narrow opening at the top.
		The 'eggs' within the cup of a birds-nest fungus are aggregates of spores which are carried from the cup by rebounding raindrops.
