Description

Antrodia are a group of wood-decaying organisms known for their ability to break down tough plant materials. They typically form large, flat, and often colorful fruiting bodies on tree trunks and branches. Some species can produce enzymes that degrade lignin, a complex substance in wood, making them important in forest ecosystems for nutrient recycling. Unique to some members of antrodia, vibrant yellow or reddish hues can make their presence in nature strikingly noticeable.
