Yellow Morel
Morchella esculenta

10 cc/mL liquid culture 

Morchella esculenta is one of the best known members of the genus Morchella, recognized by its deeply ridged and pitted cap with coloration ranging from pale yellow to golden brown. The name Morchella is associated with the morels as a distinct group of cup forming Ascomycota, while M. esculenta has historically been applied to several closely related yellow morel forms. Modern taxonomic work using DNA has helped clarify relationships within the Morchella esculenta complex, an area where older names and regional forms can be difficult to separate by appearance alone. Its honeycomb like cap, hollow interior, and highly distinctive structure make the Yellow Morel one of the most recognizable taxa in the genus.
