1、 How big is the world's largest mushroom

The world's largest mushroom is Armillaria, commonly known as honey mushroom, which was found in malhall National Forest Park in the blumentine mountains in eastern Oregon. The mushroom was so huge that people were surprised when they found it. Its length can reach a radius of 5.6 kilometers, which is equivalent to the size of a whole hill

2、 What does the world's largest mushroom look like

The shape of honey mushroom is a huge mushroom shape, which can cover 2200 acres. No one can estimate the specific volume. It is regarded as a millennium longevity. It is estimated that the life expectancy is at least 2400 years. Scientists expect the actual age to be one or two times higher than predicted

If you really look at the world's largest mushroom on the ground, you can only see a small part exposed to the ground. What you see is a fruiting entity about the size of an ordinary mushroom, and the huge part is the part that extends into the ground. Its growth is to move from one tree to another along the tree root, and then grow by bacteria to absorb water and nutrients in the soil

3、 Damage to forests

The growth of this fungus will absorb the water and nutrients in the soil, which will destroy the root tissue and lead to root rot, so it will do great harm to the forest. However, such species are also an important part of forest ecosystem. In a word, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages
