TALKING SHITAKE.....

Mushrooms can talk to each other and have a vocabulary of up to 50 words, fungi boffins say.

And they are thought most likely to be chatting about the weather and potential dangers.

They could even be letting other mushrooms know they are about and warning them off their patch.

Researchers analysed patterns of electrical activity of four species.

They say spikes of activity were where the fungi were “chatting”.

It is thought the info is relayed along fungal roots called mycelium.

Prof Andrew Adamatzky, from the University of the West of England, found the average “word” length was 5.97 letters.

It makes their language more complex than English, with 4.8, but simpler than Russian’s six-letter average.

That's Mad....

I’m very vocal about my hatred of mushrooms. It’s nice to know they’re probably bitching about me too.
