They are harvested selectively for each different fungi?

very similar

biosafety cabinet yes

that was the name

Well, they are basically flow hoods with fashion

Only inoculation (spreading spores into nutritious medium) happens in these things

Germination of spores and initial mycelium spreading happens in hermetic bags, and then the mycelium is released into fruiting substrate

wow they need to be germinated, never knew that

You can basically do it at home in small scale if you have spare 500$

Yes, but that happens relatively quickly and without much hassle… Germinating slime molds, on the other hand

That’s fucking pain embodied

Slime molds (aka myxomycetes) are fucking pricks

Radial forces follow the radius

They have like 47.000 genders and even within single species they’re picky as hell

Finding corresponding myxo colony to breed is a true heroic feat

Though specifically breeding myxomycetes does not have any meaningful sense in it, since isolating desired genes is too hard… They breed and mutate quite aggressively

So it is done mostly by enthusiasts, and in lab environment myxos are only cloned iirc

Are they safe for eating btw?

or theyll parasite on our cells

And the germs.. They are harvested selectively for each different fungi?

Some mexican folks eat Fuligo septica, but it is not recommended

Mostly because they tend to accumulate heavy metals in their cells as they age

It helps them to withstand extreme conditions and parasites

heavy metals are deadly to parasites as well?

When you collect spores and germinating them, you are basically rolling the dice on which genetic traits you will get

Mainly to other parasitic fungi / amoeba

Ah I meant that if germs are filtered for specific taxons

So it is not done unless absolutely needed to preserve a colony or isolate desired genes

Go to Jim and workout to get a juicy 4ss

Of course, if you have got a colony with something you like, you can always clone and isolate it to get these things more often

If I correctly understand your question

so they’re isolated by..? Different provided metabolism requirements or different env/mechanical hazards?

yes you do

(because from my diletant POV, avoiding cross contamination is nearly impossible)

You germinate spores; you take it through all other stages up to fruiting; you search for populations with needed traits, collect their spores, repeat the process
