Agar question
    #26418970 - 01/06/20 09:02 AM (4 years, 1 month ago)

What happens when myc consumes a contam? One of my plates had a tiny brown contam. I used my clean plates and left the contaminated one in the corner. The brownspot grew slowly and was quickly overtaken by white myc. Just wondering, is it dead now? If I test this plate would I see contams?

It's not dead, but the cube (presumably) myc is suppressing it.

For example, here's a moldy plate I let go to battle:

 

A couple weeks later:



As you can see, the mold didn't spread anymore.
Brown usually means yeast or bacteria which, in my experience, spreads less rapidly than mold.

I still wouldn't use your plate for grains.

edit: You'll be relatively safe to transfer from anywhere but where the contamination is. In my case of a mold that sporulates, those odds are lower.

That's the most interesting thing I've seen in a while!

Dam, mycelium can pull it's own sometimes!

Yeah, it makes me wonder of strain-specific disease resistance and/or immune/competition functions.
Obviously it's not something you would want to or know to breed for with the way we grow mushrooms axenically.
But it's pretty curious.
