The message
from Kay Easton contains these words:

Mycelial strands when they meet sometimes join and form fruit bodies.


I this asexual or sexual reproduction, or is the concept not relevant?
It's a long time ago that I learnt about fungi, if indeed I ever did!


But what I was referring to was that the Act says you mustn't dig up
plants, not that you mustn't pick fruit.

Fungi are not plants: they occupy a completely separate phylum.

That's what I thought - but it was someone else that brought truffles
into the argument!!
