Mushroom, grey lookalike.
    #18930055 - 10/04/13 08:08 AM (10 years, 3 months ago)

Hello, ive already posted this on the other board here on shroomery about it, but i have been told that i dont need to worry.
Ive yield the shrooms and ate them but not the grey one, and im fine so far but it still bothers me.
I just got an old picture, should have taken another one when it was ready to yield.

the pic is very blurry, but you can still see the difference between this one and the others around.

False albinism is relatively common across the entire psilocybe genus. If the morphology matches the other fruits, and there is no difference other than a paler colour, you're fine.

From the biological aspect What if i would have done a print of that one?
Would have been a chance of the fruits to have false albinism aswell?

The way mushroom genetics work, the mycelium making up a fruitbody contains both "parent" genes. These remain more or less separate, but both contributing to the appearance of the mycelium and fruit until spore production begins. At that point the two DNA groups undergo sexual reproduction to produce bastidia and spores. If i understand correctly, each of the four spores in any bastidia have identical genetic material - but each bastidia is different. The chances of an offspring carrying and expressing a unique mutation from a parent fruit is therefore pretty low. Everytime you reproduce mushrooms using spores you roll the genetic dice!

Basically, a spore print would be extremely unlikely to yield similar mutants. If you cloned the fruit, chances would be much higher - but even the individual fruits can contain multiple genetic strains and there's a good chance that the resulting clone would differ - but it's certainly possible!

Some of the other members here have spent years isolating traits and attempting to domesticate new strains - I'm sure they'll have better answers than I. If you're interested, try asking in Advanced Mycology...

Contaminant mushrooms are uncommon in indoors grows but when they do happen they're pretty easily distinguishable from Cubes. The difference is going to be more than a little grey discoloration on the cap.
