Description:

Welcome to David Moore's World of FungiThis is an interactive website of general fungal biology that covers the whole range of mycologyChoose a page to visit from the hyperlinks in the Table of Contents below Find out about some ground breaking research into the chemical signalling that controls the shape and form of fungi Get close to understanding the structure of the first fungal hormonal compounds to be chemically characterised CLICK HERE A computer program for creating life-like three-dimensional simulations of growing fungal mycelia and tissues. The program is distributed as freeware you can download from this website CLICK on the graphic above or CLICK HERE you're here to find out about fungi, but I'd like to ask you this question: Why don't we save the atmosphere by cultivating more shellfish? Planting trees may not be the answer Allow me to share four interesting and incontrovertible facts about shellfish: 1. There’s a lot of shell in shellfish (30 to 50% of the live weight is shell) 2. Shellfish shell is mineralised carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. 3. Shellfish shell is not digested and is chemically stable for geological periods of time. 4. The shellfish industry (and everyone else for that matter) seems to be totally blind to the fact that the shellfish cultivation industry is the ONLY industry on the planet that currently REMOVES serious quantities of carbon dioxide permanently from the atmosphere. The shellfish industry is the ONLY industry on the planet that could save the atmosphere by massively increasing its production. I like trees and I’m all in favour of planting more of them, but as a mycologist I have to say that forests don’t only contain trees that can store gigatonnes of carbon in the wood they make; forests also contain wood-decaying fungi that can (and do) digest that wood, releasing the stored carbon as CO2 in the process. Lliving trees store carbon; dead trees give it back to the atmosphere. That’s life. Dead shellfish leave behind 50% of their live weight in the form of crystalline calcium carbonate, which is mineralised atmospheric carbon dioxide. That's the legacy we need to save the atmosphere. ONLINE RESOURCES - just a click away click on a hyperlink below to open the resource in a new window We should know more about fungi They have killed us, saved us and served us since before written records began. Find out more about fungi in our online Exposé of Kingdom Fungi If there was a monster weighing over a hundred tonnes rampaging through the forests of Michigan eating the trees, you should know about it, right? Could keep you awake at night. I can understand. Trust me. I sympathize. You might lie there worrying that your legs could fall off. What? They haven’t told you about that either? Not a word? CLICK HERE and I'll blow the whistle; even if the black-clad agents of the Fungal Bureau of Investigation do come hammering down my door. in these coronavirus-restricted times. Upgraded Points (UP) is a website devoted to bonus reward points and travel miles earned for credit card purchases, but the folks at UP have created a new list of 100 Virtual Tours you can take from your own home. From LFC’s Anfield to the White House via the Amazon Rain Forest, Planet Mars and Volcanoes in Hawai’i, there’s a tour for every taste. It’s aimed at kids and students, but I reckon a lot of parents will find calming interest HERE! Free-to-download Educational Resources The UK’s Microbiology in Schools Advisory Committee (MiSAC) promotes the teaching of microbiology in schools and colleges by developing and publishing new ideas for the educational use of microorganisms, including practical activities. Their website makes available a wide range of (free!) downloadable resources that offer higher-school teachers and students up-to-date insights into how microbes support activities on which we all depend. In the past six months MiSAC has added teaching resources to its website covering topics as diverse as: Herpesviruses; Nitrification and ammonia oxidising microbes in soil; Producing life-saving drugs; Gut microbes; Why mistakes make influenza dangerous; Feeding farm animals; Making plant roots work; The African trypanosome and human trypanosomiasis; Bacterial endospores; Recycling leaves and wood … and many more.
