Turvaka
Turvaka is a genus of fungi belonging to the family Sclerotiniaceae. These fungi are characterized by the formation of sclerotia, which are hardened, resting structures that allow them to survive unfavorable conditions. Species within the Turvaka genus are often found in soil or on decaying plant matter.
The reproductive structures of Turvaka, known as apothecia, are typically cup-shaped and emerge from the sclerotia.
Research on Turvaka has focused on its ecological roles, particularly in decomposition processes and its potential
