Mushrooms communicate with each other using up to 50 "words",
scientist claims
Professor theorises electrical impulses sent by mycological organisms
could be similar to human language
Buried in forest litter or sprouting from trees, fungi might give the impression of being silent and relatively self-contained organisms,
but a new study suggests they may be champignon communicators.
Mathematical analysis of the electrical signals fungi seemingly send
to one another has identified patterns that bear a striking structural similarity to human speech.
Previous research has suggested that fungi conduct electrical impulses
through long, underground filamentous structures called hyphae -
similar to how nerve cells transmit information in humans.
