A precise relationship among Buller's drop, ballistospore and gill morphology enables maximal packing of spores within gilled mushrooms
Martina Iapichino, Yen Wen Wang, Savannah Gentry +2
Basidiomycete fungi eject spores using a surface tension catapult; a fluid drop forms at the base of each spore and after reaching a critical size, coalesces with the spore and lau…
Timing of fungal spore release dictates survival during atmospheric transport
D Lagomarsino-Oneto, J Golan, A Mazzino +2
The fungi disperse spores to move across landscapes and spore liberation takes different patterns. While many species release spores intermittently, others release spores at specif…
Pruning to Increase Taylor Dispersion in Physarum polycephalum Networks
Sophie Marbach, Karen Alim, Natalie Andrew +2
How do the topology and geometry of a tubular network affect the spread of particles within fluid flows? We investigate patterns of effective dispersion in the hierarchical, biolog…
Summoning the wind: Hydrodynamic cooperation of forcibly ejected fungal spores
Marcus Roper, Agnese Seminara, Ann Cobb +2
The forcibly launched spores of the crop pathogen \emph{Sclerotinia sclerotiorum} must eject through many centimeters of nearly still air to reach the flowers of the plants that th…
