title: Molecular structure of starch-type polysaccharides from Hericium ramosum and Hericium coralloides.
abstract: Starch isolated from the fungi Hericium ramosum and Hericium coralloides differs from that of higher plants in that it consists only of short-chain amylose molecules (32 to 45 glucose units long).
