It is one of several types of hypersensitivity pneumonitis caused by different agents that have similar clinical features. [2] Typical progression of the disease includes symptoms of a cold hours after spore inhalation, followed by nausea , rapid pulse, crepitant rales (a sound like that made by rubbing hairs between the fingers, heard at the ...
Almost all stages of their lifecycle can only take place inside the host cells due to their characteristics lack of mitochondria and inability to perform oxidative phosphorylation. [14] These fungi can only survive outside of their host as spores. Microsporidia infects 69 insect genera [1] forming one of the largest groups of insect infecting ...
Some markings represent apertures, places where the tough outer coat of the spore can be penetrated when germination occurs. Spores can be categorized based on the position and number of these markings and apertures. Alete spores show no lines. In monolete spores, there is a single narrow line (laesura) on the spore. [8]
It is both one of the most widely distributed psilocybin mushrooms in nature, and one of the most potent. The mushrooms have a distinctive conical to bell-shaped cap, up to 2.5 cm (1 in) in diameter, with a small nipple-like protrusion on the top. They are yellow to brown, covered with radial grooves when moist, and fade to a lighter color as ...
Spore print: White. Spores: Ellipsoid to amygdaliform with a large germ pore. Dextrinoid. The average size range is 7.7-10.5 x 5.9-7.3 μm. Smell: Indistinct or sometimes mushroomy. Taste: Indistinct. [28] [29] When dry the mushroom may discolour tan or brownish and a similar brown colour is seen in caps of aborted mushroom pins which fail to grow.
The rehydrated mushroom can also be stuffed and cooked. [53] Phallus indusiatus has been cultivated on a commercial scale in China since 1979. [49] In the Fujian Province of China—known for a thriving mushroom industry that cultivates 45 species of edible fungi—P. indusiatus is produced in the counties of Fuan, Jianou, and Ningde. [54]
Spores are oblong to spindle-shaped, and are flattened on one side; they have dimensions of 54–68 μm by 10–13 μm. The spores each contain three to five oil drops. Although the spores have been described as smooth in older literature, [24] when viewed with transmission electron microscopy, they are seen to have minute spots or punctures. [16]
The tubes offer shelter for developing spores and help to increase the area of the spore-producing surface. Pore size and shape vary a lot between species, but little within a species – some Hexagonia spp. have 5 mm wide pores whereas pores of Antrodiella spp. are invisible to naked eye with 15 pores per mm.
