It grows in an anaerobic environment 20- 100 meters underground, lives in soil and depends on water, so it will not rot and deteriorate in water. At the same time, this slime mold mainly depends on spores and hyphae, which is very active and can be cut and regenerated at will.
However, it is by no means the endless growth of everyone's legend. If it can grow rapidly, it will not be rare.
Extended data:
Its structure is not composed of a single cell, but a polymer composed of bacteria, slime molds and fungi. Studies have shown that Ganoderma lucidum feeds on microorganisms such as bacteria, yeast and mold spores. Take cellulose, chitosan, chitin, etc. As a nutrient, it is rich in protein, nucleic acid, candida and Geotrichum candidum.
Its cells contain photosynthetic pigments. According to the genealogical analysis of the origin and evolution of life, its position should be between bacteria (algae) plants and protozoa.
There are both vegetative bodies and solid human bodies, but unfortunately, after biological evolution reached this level, it stopped evolution because of the limitation of external light. Therefore, biologists call it "blind branch", which is at the fork of life evolution.
