👉 Pleurostoma is a type of fungus that grows on the skin of plants. It's known for its ability to colonize and thrive in the fungal community, often causing root rot or blight on plant leaves.
👉 Pleurostomataceae is a family of flowering plants that includes various species commonly known as "frog's foot" or "mushroom plant." These plants are characterized by their distinctive, bulbous leaves and tubular fruiting bodies. They are also known for their ability to produce edible fruits, such as the common mushroom (as in mushrooms), which can be eaten raw or cooked.
👉 Pleurostomia, a type of lung disease, is characterized by inflammation and scarring in the lining of the lungs caused by pleura, which are sac-like structures that surround the lungs. This condition can lead to difficulty breathing due to the narrowing or thickening of the pleural space, making it difficult for the lungs to expand and contract properly.
