Ciri dan struktur
The fruit bodies (basidiocarps) are pale, with a smooth greyish-brown top surface, while the creamy white underside has hundreds of pores that contain the spores. The fruit body has a rubbery texture, becoming corky with age. Fomitopsis betulina has a bipolar mating system These factors are all variants or alleles of a single gene, as opposed to the tetrapolar mating system of some other basidiomycete species, which involves two genes.
Habitat dan peran ekologis
Fomitopsis betulina is one of the most common species of brown rot fungi. In most infections there is only one fungal individual present, but occasionally several individuals may be isolated from a single tree, and in these cases it is possible that the birch bracket fungus entered after something else killed the tree. These fungal "individuals" can sometimes be seen if a slice of brown-rotted birch wood is incubated in a plastic bag for several days. This allows the white mycelium of the fungus to grow out of the surface of the wood. If more than one individual dikaryon is present, lines of intraspecific antagonism form as the two individual mycelia interact and repel each other. The fungus is eaten by the caterpillars of the fungus moth Nemaxera betulinella. Adults of the pleasing fungus beetle Aporotritoma pulchra have also been recorded from F.betulina, but it does not seem to be a regular food source for them. Old fruit bodies that have survived the winter are often colonized by the white to pale yellow fungus Hypocrea pulmonata.
