Anyway isn't a fungus a plant? I mean it grows in the ground right, and you can plant them........
To be honest I don't know a lot about mushrooms.

When people say plant science it can be a pretty broad term though and I do know a couple of people who have worked with mushrooms.

We often use bacteria etc for our work so a general knowledge of biology comes into play a bit.

So basically I wouldn't be much help myself unless I was put on a project and asked to learn about it - then I'd have access to all the right journals.

I do have a friend who lives in the country in an area where a lot of wild mushrooms grow and I have collected them, cooked and eaten them with her.

She studied plant science too.

I can't remember how we could tell the difference between the good and bad ones now.........
