These fungi have countless branching, thread-like hyphae that together make up the mycelium.

这些真菌有无数分枝，线状菌共同构成了菌体。

Only in this way can the hypha be preserved.

只有这样。菌才不被破坏。

Molds form branches that are like thin threads called hyphae.

菌分枝像线，它们被称作菌。

In a single pinch of dirt, these hyphae, when lined up, can extend 11 km!

在一小撮土里，这些菌如果排成一排能够伸 11 公里。

That means that the sugars flow from the tree roots into the fungal hyphae.

这意味着糖分从树根流入真菌菌。

The white thin hair is the hypha of mucor, which gives tofu a new vitality.

白色是毛菌菌是它们赋予豆腐新活力。

They multiply and metamorphose— substituting their rounded structures for elongated thread-like forms called hyphae.

它们繁殖和变形——用它们圆形结构代替称为菌长线状形式。

The strange food covered with white hypha is actually tofu.

这些附着着白色菌奇特食物它们实质是豆腐。

They also extend hair-like filaments called hyphae into the soil which pump water even more efficiently than the tree's own roots.

它们还将像头发一样叫做称为菌伸到土壤，它比树木自身根部吸水效率更高。

They took their inspiration directly from nature, observing movement patterns in fungal hyphae, brain neurons, and pollen tubes.

他们直接从大自然汲取灵感，观察真菌菌、脑神经元和花粉管运动模式。

Once the sugars enter the fungus, they travel along the hyphae through pores between cells or through special hollow transporter hyphae.

糖类进入真菌后，它们通过胞间孔隙或特殊空转运体菌沿菌传播。

So Hueber examined them under the microscope and found long, tube-shaped cells that were similar to the hyphae found in modern fungi.

因此 Hueber 在显微镜下检查它们，发现长管状胞与现代真菌发现菌相似。

But unlike its tiny predecessor, the giant fungus sent out huge networks of hyphae in all directions, sending food back to its central pillar.

但与其微小前身不同， 巨型真菌向各个方向发出巨大菌网络，将食物送回其心支柱。

The researchers who conducted this study knew that soil fungi whose hyphae are symbiotic with tomatoes (providing them with minerals in exchange for food) also form a network connecting one plant to another.

土壤真菌菌与番茄属共生关系，真菌向番茄提供矿物质，作为交换，番茄则向真菌供给“食物”。而实验研究者们同样早就清楚地知道，真菌菌还在植物之间构建起了网络。

For Dr Johnson believes he has shown that just such an internet, with fungal hyphae standing in for local Wi-Fi, alerts beanstalks to danger if one of their neighbours is attacked by aphids.

约翰逊博士认为，他已经很明白地展示出，正是这样一个地下网络，凭借真菌菌所起到局部无线网络（Wi-Fi）作用，在邻近植物遭蚜虫进犯时，可以向其它豆茎发出警报，警惕邻近危险。
