Fungi

A recent study reveals that ant agriculture originated 66 million years ago, following the asteroid impact that led to the dinosaurs' extinction. This event allowed fungi to flourish in the aftermath, as they thrived on decaying plant matter. It was found that while the initial partnership formed post-impact, ants did not develop advanced farming t...

Playing a monotonous sound stimulates the activity of a fungus that promotes plant growth, a study suggested on Wednesday, raising the potential that playing music could be good for crops and gardens.

In this article, we will explore how AMR develops, its impact on the human body, and the pros and cons of this biological phenomenon.

According to Ayurveda, copper has natural purification properties that help kill moulds, fungi, bacteria and other such microorganisms in the water.

This finding raises numerous questions regarding the ecological dynamics and potential symbiotic relationships between amphibians and fungi in their natural habitats.

The researchers also noted there were no emojis representing either platyhelminths (flatworms, including tapeworms) or nematodes, despite there being more than 20,000 platyhelminth species and almost 20,000 nematode species.

Researchers discover a 407-million-year-old fossilized fungus, named Potteromyces asteroxylicola, in the Rhynie Chert, shedding light on early disease history and fungi's role in shaping Earth.

A mushroom mystery gripping Australia began to unravel Monday, with an amateur cook saying she accidentally put lethal fungi in a beef Wellington dish now linked to three deaths.

We discuss whether mushrooms can be added to a diabetes diet as well as other possible benefits they could provide.

High humidity, coupled with increased moisture in the air, creates favourable conditions for the growth of bacteria, mold, and fungi during monsoon.

The patient, a professional plant mycologist, had spent a considerable amount of time working with decaying material, mushrooms, and various plant fungi.

According to research, fungi that grow next to trees can provide enough healthy food each year to feed nearly 19 million people.

The new molecule "kills so efficiently that we named it after Keanu Reeves because he, too, is extremely deadly in his roles," scientists said.

The Last of Us episode 5 trailer is out, teasing a terrifying new adversary in the Bloater, the fourth and final evolutionary stage, after having been exposed to the Cordyceps fungi for years. The episode sees Joel (Pedro Pascal) and Ellie (Bella Ramsey) teaming up with siblings Henry (Lamar Johnson) and Sam (Keivonn Montreal Woodard), leading the ...

A new study suggests how 5,500 marine RNA virus species may help push carbon absorbed from the atmosphere to permanent storage on the ocean floor. The effort aims to learn more about the organisms that live in the ocean and do the majority of the work of absorbing half of the human-generated carbon in the atmosphere and producing half of the oxygen...
