Jigsaw Puzzle : Fly agaric fungi
Jigsaw Puzzles from Science Photo Library
Fly agaric fungi
Fly agaric fungi (Amanita muscaria). The mycelium of the fly agaric fungus shares a symbiotic relationship with spruce, forming a mycorrhizal sheath around the roots of the tree. This is a mutualistic relationship, with the fungus helping its host to extract nutrients and water from the soil, in return for sugars via the plants photosynthesis. This fungus is hallucinogenic and poisonous. The genus Amanita is recognized by its swollen basal volva and the ring on its stem

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing beauty of Fly agaric fungi (Amanita muscaria) in all its glory. The intricate details of this fungus are truly remarkable, but what makes it even more fascinating is its symbiotic relationship with spruce trees. The mycelium of the fly agaric fungus forms a mycorrhizal sheath around the roots of the tree, creating a mutually beneficial bond between them. In this unique partnership, the fungus aids its host by assisting in nutrient and water absorption from the soil while receiving sugars through photosynthesis. However, despite their harmonious alliance, one must approach these stunning organisms with caution as they possess both hallucinogenic and poisonous properties. This characteristic adds an element of intrigue to their already enchanting presence. Recognizable by its swollen basal volva and distinctive ring on its stem, Amanita muscaria belongs to the genus Amanita within Basidiomycetes - a group of fungi known for their diverse biological functions. This image not only highlights nature's wonders but also serves as a reminder that even seemingly delicate and beautiful elements can have hidden complexities beneath their surface. It invites us to appreciate the intricacies of biology and explore our understanding of mutualistic relationships in ecosystems worldwide.
