Guttation on fungi?
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/7f/Fomitopsis_pinicola_with_Guttation_02.jpg/220px-Fomitopsis_pinicola_with_Guttation_02.jpg)
Are the drops sometimes seen on some mushrooms, e.g. Fomitopsis pinicola or Serpula lacrymans, also called guttation? --Biodehio (talk) 20:07, 29 January 2017 (UTC)
I'm not sure. These drops arent water and (as far as I know) contain fungal spores used for reproduction, so the function is different from plant guttation W4Vdragon (talk) 10:53, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
Okay, actually I might be wrong... The process seen in the Hydnellum fungus is called guttation in the article W4Vdragon (talk) 10:56, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
Guttation Injuries
[edit]1. Loss of viable minerals 2. Injury due to accumulation of salt. 3. The pathogens can enter during active guttation. 4. Chlorosis and Necrosis are two major guttation injuries that is seen due to accumulation of salt and infection by microbes. [1] EarthDragon (talk) 13:27, 16 May 2022 (UTC)
