Forests: woodland through the year and the great northern forest, sentence 12

A mushroom is only the fruit of a fungus; the main fungus is a web of fine threads in wood and soil that rots dead things back into soil, and some wild mushrooms are deadly, so never touch or eat them.

Who acts: mushroom, main fungus, soil, wild mushrooms · What happens: be, rot back, not touch, eat · To what, where: fruit, web, dead things, soil, things
