psy. Cubensis = homthallic or heterothallic?
    #6825205 - 04/23/07 10:07 PM (17 years, 8 months ago)

I'm reading a book right now about edibles, but there are a few really good chapters on mushroom biology as well, which in all honesty I didn't know that mush about before. I came across something in the breeding section, and was wondering if cubensis is homothallic, heterothallic, or secondarily heterothallic. This book has tons of information about edibles such as Agaricus and Lentinula. but the only thing it says about any psilocybe species is that they are "hallucinogenically poisonous" and should never be consumed. I'm thinking that they are heterothallic, meaning they cannot grow from a single spore into a fruit. Is there anyone who can help me out?

i believe they are heterothallic also. i believe i read somewhere it takes 2 spores inoculated into a jar too fully colonize and fruit.

Just after I posted that I continued reading, and the book says that 90% of mushrooms are heterothallic, so I'm assuming it is. Next question, is it bifactorial, or unifactorial?

Homothallic because spores from the same cap are capable of breeding to form new mushrooms. Heterothallic spores need to mate with an individual from another fruiting body.

Bifactorial because of the A and B mating types.
