JUNIPER PUBLISHERS- Trends in Technical & Scientific ResearcH Bioluminescence: Chemical Study on Visible Light Emission from Fungal Mycelium and Fruiting Body Authored by Katsunori Teranishi Although the visible light emission by living organisms is generally thought to be rare, in fact the bioluminescent phenomenon can be widely observed in nature, for examples insects, fishes, bacteria, and fungi. The phenomenon has intrigued scientific researchers over the years.The chemical mechanisms underlying bioluminescence differ between species. Some mechanisms, such as bioluminescence of firefly, jellyfish, bacteria, and dinoflagellate, have been elucidated and further more their principles have allowed the development of many novel technologies in agriculture, biology, ecology, and medicine. However, many other bioluminescence mechanisms yet remain to be understood. Further research of bioluminescence will lead discoveries of biological significance and novel possibili...
