Morels are the fruiting body of mycelium that either lives symbiotically with living vegetation or decomposes dead vegetation. The mushrooms are identified by their iconic honeycombed cap with ...

Now, researchers have developed a building material made of mycelium—the tubular, branching filaments found in most fungi—and bacteria cells. As detailed in a study published last week in the ...

Plant-based brand Happiee, best known for its seafood alternatives, has expanded its range with the launch of easy-cook lion’s mane mushroom chunks. Claimed to be the first products of their kind in ...

Design practice Studio TOOJ's illusory Duk furniture series features hard, unmoving forms that look like draped cloth but are made of wood and mycelium. The Duk – the Swedish word for ...

But the art installation material is actually Reishi, a leathery material made from mycelium, a root-like structure found in fungus. It’s just one of many elements at the new 265-room hotel ...

A team of engineers from Montana State University has developed a building material using the root-like mycelium network of a fungus, along with specially selected bacteria. This hybrid material ...

Cordyceps is a genus of fungi with a mycelium structure resembling white, root-like filaments. It targets insects as its favorite hosts, invading their bodies and gradually replacing their tissues.

Mycelium as a scaffold for biomineralized engineered living materials. Cell Reports Physical Science , 2025; 6 (4): 102517 DOI: 10.1016/j.xcrp.2025.102517 Cite This Page : ...

Chelsea Heveran at Montana State University and her colleagues tested whether a similar mineralised structure could be created around a scaffold of fungal mycelium. Mycelium is a network of ...

Microscopy images of S. pasteurii grown in liquid cultures with non-viable mycelium scaffolds. Red circles indicate the likely presence of bacteria. Image from the study. Researchers in a ...

Led by Ethan Viles, the team looked beyond construction for inspiration, drawing from other applications of fungal mycelium, such as its use in packing and insulation. Their research identified ...
