Description
Sordaria is a group of small, dark-colored fungi often found on dung and decaying plant material. They play a crucial role in decomposition processes. Many species in this group are used in genetic research due to their unique spore color patterns, which allow scientists to easily observe genetic inheritance. Some sordaria species can forcefully shoot their spores over impressive distances.
