GONZALO MORALES // Peru Trade / Follow @tecnoycienciaEC But for plants and animals to survive, needed nutrients
And it is believed that. a thinner body than human and very much like a fungus, hair was among the first inhabitants out of the water.
the fossil of the fungus, which dates back some 440 million years ago, spent his life under earth, rotting matter.
Even the scientist who analyzed it, Dr. Martin Smith, admits it is a “humble little mushroom”.
But this pioneer, known as Tortotubus, could help explain how early creatures colonize a rocky and barren earth.
this fungus was the one who started this process to obtain nitrogen and oxygen from the rudimentary land.
Smith , who conducted the research at the University of Cambridge- not rule that has probably been some kind of bacteria and algae, but this is difficult to know because rarely preserved as fossils.

This makes Tortotubus the oldest fossil ever found a body on land.
“it is (in fact) the first fossil of an organism that lived only in soil “says Smith.
” it must have decomposed dead material and basically podrirlo “.
in many parts of the world, such as Sweden and Scotland have found fossils of fungi.
But this microfossils is thinner than a human hair and rope- like structure is similar to fungal we see today.
Scientists believe that this primitive organism contributed to composting and in the process of putrefaction, which paved the way for bloomed plants, grow trees and later animals.
“During the period when there were these body, life was practically restricted to the oceans, had not yet evolved anything as complex as a simple moss and plants and lichens, “Smith said
.” But before they could flourish plants or trees, or animals that depend on it is needed to establish the process of putrefaction and composting, “explains Smith, who published their study in the journal” Botanical journal of the Linnean Society. ”
