Scientists have finally figured out how the world's deadliest mushroom, the death cap, is spreading across the U.S. so quickly.
Published Feb 10th, 2023 8:20PM ESTThe world’s deadliest mushroom has been spreading across the United States faster than expected. The “death cap” mushroom, which is more formally called, is extremely toxic to humans. The species originated in Europe, but has quickly been finding a new home all across the U.S.
Different types of mushrooms should always be approached carefully, especially as death caps continue to spread across the U.S. Image source: Mindaugas/Adobe Other specimens collected in 2014 showed that two different spots contain the same material, which the scientists say makes them the same individual mushroom. These asexual spores are formed in the world’s deadliest mushroom when it replicates its own chromosomes in two distinctly identical packages.
