What is Turkey Tail Mushroom?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

<\/u>Turkey Tail Mushroom is the common name for a fungus called Tramates versicolor, Coriolus versicolor<\/em>, or sometimes Polyporus versicolor, <\/em>which is an older name. <\/em>You may also find Turkey tail under its Chinese and Japanese names, yun zhi <\/em>and kawaritake, <\/em>respectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Turkey tail is one of the most-studied medicinal mushrooms in the world.<\/a> Mainly because, it can be found all over the world. Turkey tail is a bracket fungus, which means it grows \u201csticking out\u201d of tree trunks, stumps, branches, and logs in a pattern of concentric rings. It is named after its colorful appearance, which includes bands of brown, cream, black, orange, and even blue and purple colors, which resemble a Turkey\u2019s tail. Turkey tail is a polypore fungus, which means that its underside is covered in many small holes whose function is to increase the surface area for spores. In this way, the true Turkey tail mushroom can be distinguished from lookalikes such as Stereum ostrea,<\/em> which does not have any pores.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
