Book Northern Polypores  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Northern Polypores Classic Reprint written by William Alphonso Murrill and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-20 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Northern Polypores Polypores are tough or woody fungi found chiefly on wood in the form of brackets of various shapes and sizes, the fruiting surface being composed of tubes or furrows. Sometimes the walls of these tubes split with age and the hymenium appears spiny, resembling the hydnums; sometimes the furrows change with age to appear like gills. When the fruit-body is perennial, the tubes are often arranged in layers. The family may be divided into four groups, the resupinates, the annual poroid species, the perennial poroid species, and the agaric-like species. The resupinate species cannot be satisfactorily studied without the advantages of a large herbarium and are therefore omitted here, but some of the larger species of the other groups are comparatively easy. Polypores as a class are very destructive to trees and timber. On the other hand, one species possesses medicinal properties, some of the encrusted species supply tinder, and several of the more juicy ones are excellent for food if collected when young. The only species recognized as poisonous is the medicinal one, Fomes Laricis, and it is so tough and bitter that no one would think of eating it. Polypores are very easily collected and preserved and they largely retain their characters when dried, which makes them excellent objects for class study during the winter months. Many of them, also, remain in situ during the winter in perfect condition for collecting. As a group, they lend themselves remarkably well to studies in gross and minute anatomy, variation, adaptation, and injurious effects on trees and structural timbers.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Western Polypores Polypores are tough or woody fungi found chiefly on wood in the form of brackets of various shapes and sizes, the fruiting surface being composed of tubes or furrows. Sometimes the walls of these tubes split with age and the hymenium appears spiny, resembling the hydnums; sometimes the furrows change with age to appear like gills.

Book The Polyporaceae of Wisconsin  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Polyporaceae of Wisconsin Classic Reprint written by J. J. Neuman and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-27 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Polyporaceae of Wisconsin This great family of fungi is represented in Wisconsin by a large number of species, belonging to all the commonly accepted genera except Cydomyces. Many of them are common in all parts of the state but a few have so far been found only in certain regions. Polyporus volvatus, for example, is of course found only in the northern part of the state where its host, the pine, grows in considerable abundance. Many other species that have been collected only in the northern part of the state will probably also be found in the southern part, as their hosts, and the conditions necessary for their growth, are present in both regions. For example, Fomes marginatus grows on various deciduous trees, but it has thus far not been collected in the southern part of the state with the exception of one specimen which was found growing on a hickory stump in Madison., The group includes parasitic, saprophytic and terrestrial species. To the latter belong the Holeti, Boletini, Strobxlomyces and Form terrestris. The great majority, however, belong to the first two groups and it is not yet clear as to many wood inhabiting species whether they are in a strict sense parasitic or saprophytic. The collections on which the following account is based are now in the herbarium of the University of Wisconsin. They were made during a period of six or seven years by a number of collectors. By far the largest number of species was collected by the writer on special excursions into our northern forests. The brief account of the distribution and relation of the polypores to various decays in timber trees is largely the result of a special study of certain of our northern forest regions which were worked over in the summer of 1904, while the author was employed as a special agent of the United States bureau of Forestry. Abundant specimens of wood in various conditions of decay were collected and later worked over microscopically.

  • Publisher : Ballantine Books
  • Release : 2023-08-08
  • ISBN : 0345536274
  • Pages : 321 pages

Download or read book The Mushroom Hunters written by Langdon Cook and published by Ballantine Books. This book was released on 2023-08-08 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A beautifully written portrait of the people who collect and distribute wild mushrooms . . . food and nature writing at its finest.”—Eugenia Bone, author of Mycophilia “A rollicking narrative . . . Cook [delivers] vivid and cinematic scenes on every page.”—The Wall Street Journal In the dark corners of America’s forests grow culinary treasures. Chefs pay top dollar to showcase these elusive and enchanting ingredients on their menus. Whether dressing up a filet mignon with smoky morels or shaving luxurious white truffles over pasta, the most elegant restaurants across the country now feature one of nature’s last truly wild foods: the uncultivated, uncontrollable mushroom. The mushroom hunters, by contrast, are a rough lot. They live in the wilderness and move with the seasons. Motivated by Gold Rush desires, they haul improbable quantities of fungi from the woods for cash. Langdon Cook embeds himself in this shadowy subculture, reporting from both rural fringes and big-city eateries with the flair of a novelist, uncovering along the way what might be the last gasp of frontier-style capitalism. Meet Doug, an ex-logger and crabber—now an itinerant mushroom picker trying to pay his bills and stay out of trouble; Jeremy, a former cook turned wild-food entrepreneur, crisscrossing the continent to build a business amid cutthroat competition; their friend Matt, an up-and-coming chef whose kitchen alchemy is turning heads; and the woman who inspires them all. Rich with the science and lore of edible fungi—from seductive chanterelles to exotic porcini—The Mushroom Hunters is equal parts gonzo travelogue and culinary history lesson, a fast-paced, character-driven tour through a world that is by turns secretive, dangerous, and quintessentially American.
