Still mourning #fungal26? Want to celebrate the release of the April 2026 edition of G3? Why not give this a gander? We found impact of low level contamination on population analyses in both Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Aspergillus fumigatus! #mycosky #academicsky

A visit from an artist yesterday was the perfect excuse to spend some time admiring this very beautiful arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus: 𝘎𝘪𝘨𝘢𝘴𝘱𝘰𝘳𝘢 𝘮𝘢𝘳𝘨𝘢𝘳𝘪𝘵𝘢 (pictured here colonising rice roots)

Motivated by a seminar from @tomthirkell.bsky.social, I've delved back into my image archives of mycorrhizal fungi in random plant species. This beautifully bunchy fungal arbuscule in a buttercup root needed sharing!🔬🏵️

Sort of out of focus view of teeth
#mycosky #fungifriends Donkia pulcherrima? Fuzzy pale orange top, white teeth pores. But high-elevation central BC growing on pine.

It was very interesting to know about Zolly and Sahana transposable elements found in the fungus Leptosphaeria maculans, the causal organism of blackleg in canola, and their potential roles in morphological variations, i.e. sectoring in culture plates, and sensitivity to fungicides.

It's Mycology Monday! May your week put the "fun" in fungi 🍄
#MycoSky #Fungi
#mycosky #mycology bluesky! I’m looking for some inspiration - what are some of your favourite recent (published within the last 1–3 years) fungal comparative phylogenomic studies that you’ve read?

sarcoscyphaaustriaca is another species of scarlet #elfcupmushrooms and these ones are saprobes that lie hidden in the leaf litter and can be easily missed. We found a jackpot of these in #dundasvalleyconservationarea on the Main Loop #mycosky #fungifriends
Any expertise in Cyathus taxonomy on BkueSky? I have a question about the tunica of the peridioles of a potentially #newspecies from Honduras. #mycosky #mycology @opwall.bsky.social 🍄🇦🇷
