How to use "Fungus" in context?
In the scientific world, fungi is a collective term for all kinds of fungi. Although there is some debate about the precise definition, most biologists would define fungi as fungi, ascomycetes, and lichenized fungi. Fungi have a long and varied history and played an important role in human history. For example, mycotoxins are a group of harmful compounds that are produced by a wide range of fungi. Mycotoxins can cause a variety of diseases in humans, livestock, and other animals. Fungi can also be beneficial, secreting molecules that help plants grow.
