Gymnopilus junonius is a type of mushroom-forming fungus in the family Hymenogastraceae.

Armillaria can remain viable in stumps for 50 years. Chemical treatments do not eradicate the fungus entirely, and they are not cost-effective. The most frequent and effective approach to managing root disease problems is to attempt to control them at final harvest by replanting site-suited tree species that are disease tolerant.
Polypores (Ganoderma sp.) growing on a tree in Borneo Polypores are a group of fungi that form large fruiting bodies with pores or tubes on the underside (with some exceptions). They are a morphological group of basidiomycetes -like gilled mushrooms and hydnoid fungi , and not all polypores are closely related to each other.
