	Mycelium - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Mycelium is the vegetative part of a fungus consisting of a mass of branching threadlike hyphae that exists below the ground or within another substrate.
		It is through the mycelium that a fungus absorbs nutrients from its environment.
		Mycelium is also a vital component in many ecosystems in that it helps increase the efficiency of water and nutrient absorption of many plants and also is vital to the decomposition and breaking-up of plant material to form the organic part of soil and to release carbon dioxide back into the atmosphere.

	TASTE : Mycelium
		According to its definition, “Mycelium” is a set of organisms under the earth in symbiosis (beneficial association) with the organism to which it is associated.
		Mycelium’s career as a DJ began in 1997 in New Brunswick, Canada, where he was temporarily residing during the course of his studies.
		Mycelium considers that his role as a disk jockey is to serve as an amplifier.

	Mushroom mycelium as a source of protein (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Amino acids in hydrolysates of submerged mycelium of Agaricus bisporus and Coprinus comatus and in the culture medium.
		Analyses of bound amino acids in mushrooms [7,8,81,100] and mushroom mycelium [61,88,100,138] showed the presence of all essential amino acids, but the concentrations of the sulphur containing amino acids were low.
		For this reason, mushroom mycelium may be expected to be suitable for human and animal nutrition, if it is not the only source of amino acids, but is supplied with another kind of protein.

	Anomaly in Morchella Research.
		The shrinkage of disc diameter, development of a boundary and thinness of extended mycelium are evidence of cell material migrating from the outer mycelium to the high density mycelium in a endotrophic manner.
		The cell structure of the high density mycelium was filamentous on the upper surface, with cell density increasing toward the agar.
		As the mycelium approaches the surface of the casing, an increase in oxygen availability would produce a sharp rise in the level of ATP inducing mushrooms to form.

	Mycelium
		The mycelium is there throughout the year, in the soil or in the log, and is not a static object.
		As already noted, a mycelium growing in the ground does not expand as a disk but as a ring, with most of the activity near the outer edge of the ring.
		Moreover, the mycelium may be impervious to water, thereby reducing the water available to the grass and so putting further stress on the grass.

		Mycelium landfill waste at HandR was soon identified as the fourth largest waste stream among Bayer's entire enterprise of more than 50 locations.
		Mycelium is the residual husk of selected enzymes added to the citric acid production process to enhance biologic fermentation.
		Other alternatives to disposal also were evaluated, including land application of mycelium as a soil nutrient; use of mycelium to remove small particle solids from wastewater in mining operations; composting; and decomposition of mycelium in anaerobic waste treatment reactors.

	What is a fungus ?
		Rather, enzymes are secreted from the tips of the hyphae in the mycelium and these enzymes break down the complex molecules found in organic matter in the soil, into smaller molecules, which are then absorbed through the hyphal walls near the growing tips.
		For example, one part of the expanding mycelium may encounter an inhospitable or nutrient-poor area, perhaps a river, a mass of solid rock or soil that's too acidic or too alkaline.
		The descriptions of the mushroom and the underground mycelium encapsulate the essence of all the (macro) fungi that are the subject of this website.

	Fairy Rings (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		As it grows, the mycelium uses up all of the nutrients in the soil, starving the grass.
		Large rings are created when the older mycelium in the center finally exhausts the soil nutrients and dies.
		On the death of the central mycelium, the nutrients are returned to the soil and grass can grow again.

	Kingdom Fungi
		The hyphae in a fungus branch off of one another to form the mycelium, and are all ultimately connected to the original hypha.
		Mushrooms, the reproductive structures of an underground mycelium, contain specialized cells on the underside of the cap that produce diploid zygotes through fusion of the two haploid nuclei in each cell; these zygotes are the only diploid phase of the life cycle.
		The spores are carried, by wind, water, or animals, away from the original mycelium, and some will land on moist food sources, where they can germinate and begin to divide mitotically into haploid mycelia of a discrete mating type.

		The mycelium can be readily grown in ordinary Mason jars in a low cost medium in 10 to 12 days and the active materials (psilocybin and psilocin) can be easily extracted.
		Complete instruc- tions are given for locating the mushrooms, developing stock cultures for inoculation, cultivating, harvesting, and drying the mycelium, extracting the active alkaloids, and using the existing cultures to seed new cultures to keep an ongoing psilocybin farm yielding a regular crop of the hallucinogenic mycelium.
		The mycelium does best on MEA at 81 degrees F. Thermal death occurs at 95 degrees F. It is almost impossible to produce carpophores on sterilized rye medium.

	Shiitake cultivation on logs
		Shiitake mycelium is a primary wood decomposer, it degrades the lignin and other components of wood and extracts the nutrients to feed itself.
		To cultivate this mushroom, mycelium is introduced into the logs in the form of a cloned culture called spawn.
		Once the mycelium has taken over the log completely, the trigger to produce mushrooms is moisture, heavy rains will stimulate the logs to produce.

	Reishi Mushroom
		Mycelium is a network of the threadlike filaments that originates from spores.
		Further investigations have discovered that the largest amount of active ingredients exist in the mycelium, and that the mycelium is more digestible.
		Some capsules made from the mycelium contain also the grain from which the mycelium is grown (so only a small fraction of the capsule is actually Reishi mycelium).

		The science goes like this: fine filaments of cells called mycelium, the fruit of which are mushrooms, already cover large areas of land around the world.
		As the mycelium grows, it breaks down plant and animal debris, recycling carbon, nitrogen, and other essential elements in the creation of rich new soil.
		The science is both simple and brilliant, and in MYCELIUM RUNNING, Stamets discusses the various branches of this exciting new technology, including mycorestoration (biotransforming stripped land), mycofiltration (creating habitat buffers), myco-remediation (healing chemically harmed environments), and mycoforestry (creating truly sustainable forests).
