In mycology, a stipe (/ s t aɪ p /) is the stem or stalk-like feature supporting the cap of a mushroom. Like all tissues of the mushroom other than the hymenium, the stipe is composed of sterile hyphal tissue. In many instances, however, the fertile hymenium extends down the stipe some distance. Fungi that have stipes are said to be stipitate. [1]
The fungus parasites in the sporocarps of the veiled hebeloma (Hebeloma mesophaeum), which are deformed by the parasitic fungus. Dissoderma odoratum is mostly found in Europe but has also been found from the United States. The fungus is a rare species that is classified as endangered in several European countries.
It is the second largest of the human body and made of various bacteria, viruses, fungi and protozoa. [14] These organisms play an important role in oral and overall health. Anthony Van Leeuwenhoek was the first to view these organisms using a microscope he created. [ 14 ]
The fruiting bodies mostly have a central stipe. Some are medium-sized and there are also smaller species. The caps range in colour from yellow/brown to brick red. The spore colour is dark brown to black. The cap is smooth. The developing mushroom is enveloped in a veil, but in Hypholoma this can be seen only in very young examples. This means ...
Ascomycetes, sac fungi. A phylum of fungi characterized by the presence of an ascus, a sac-like structure where ascospores are produced. The largest group of fungi. Includes cup fungi or Discomycetes; most dermatophyte s; the mycobiont part of most lichens; powdery mildews; and fungi that produce truffle s. [37] ascospore
Before then, fungi with spines (hydnoid fungi) had been grouped in Hydnum by Elias Fries in his 1821 work Systema mycologicum. [3] Karsten defined Hydnellum as having fruitbodies with a corky or leathery, tough cap, and a centrally attached stipe. [2] Synonyms of Hydnellum include Calodon (Karsten, 1881 [4]), and Phaeodon (Joseph Schröter ...
Penicillium spinulosum (spinulosus means with small spines in Latin) is a non-branched, fast-growing fungus with a swelling at the terminal of the stipe (vesiculate) in the genus Penicillium. [3] [4] P. spinulosum is able to grow and reproduce in environment with low temperature and low water availability, [5] and is known to be acidotolerant. [6]
The sticky material on the stipe is a gelatinous matrix made of a layer of paraphyses. [6] Although black earth tongue species are generally not worth eating, [14] Charles McIlvaine opined in his 1902 work One Thousand American Fungi that, if stewed, G. glutinosum is "delicious." [18]
