Phellinus everhartii Glass Tube Agar Slant
Phellinus everhartii glass tube slant preserved on sterile nutrient agar for long term storage, genetic preservation, and advanced research. Glass tubes provide a practical format for maintaining live strains while reducing the need for frequent transfers and minimizing contamination risks.
This perennial bracket polypore produces dense, thick fruiting bodies marked by a dark, cracked upper pileus and a rich golden brown pore surface. Native to North American hardwood forests, the species develops primarily on living oaks, acting as a specialized heart rot pathogen and white rot wood decomposer that plays a key ecological role in forest canopy dynamics.
The mycelium displays persistent, steady growth on standard agar formulations under sterile laboratory conditions and should be stored in a cool, dark environment to ensure maximum viability. Suited for strain evaluation, comparative decay research, and academic collections, this specimen offers a reliable foundation for studying hymenochaetoid basidiomycetes, tree defense responses, and specialized wood decay biochemistry.
