Artwork description

Sí, unas setenta especies de hongos pertenecientes a varias familias (Omphalotus, Armillaria, Mycenaceae...) que habitan en los bosques de todo el mundo brillan en la oscuridad. Esta propiedad se llama bioluminiscencia y es el resultado de una serie de reacciones químicas que forman parte del metabolismo de los seres vivos.
La luz emitida por los hongos es de color azul verdoso y está asociada a la enzima luciferasa, que participa en muchos de estos procesos. Los científicos no saben exactamente cuál es la razón del fenómeno, pero se cree que juega un papel importante en la reproducción y la supervivencia fúngica.
