These roots extend several hundred meters underground, securing the host organism in place and accessing underground aquifers and nutrient sources in a wide variety of soils. The type of soil, climate and atmosphere is believed to influence certain characteristics of organisms, but key traits appear consistent. While they may share several attributes with fungi - deep roots, bioluminescence, spores, broad upper growths - they are technically a type of woody plant.|In-game description}}'''Radicoida''' is a genus of [[Exobiologist|exobiological]] flora.

Initial results | Initial results suggest that some evolutionary markers in the DNA of these plants may not be entirely natural in origin. According to the researchers, certain sequences in the biochemical structure of the achenes indicate artificial intervention. However, the scientists emphasized that these changes were not made recently. One specialist, who wished to remain anonymous, reported that the markers indicate intervention "on a timescale measured in billions, not millions, of years" and suggested that if the plant was genetically modified, it was "by unknown hands in the very, very distant past."<ref name=":0">[https://canonn.science/codex/radicoida/?highlight=radicoida%20unica Canonn Research: Radicoida]</ref> | ||
Radicoida Unica was first discovered by the [[Lexi October|October Consortium]] in [[HIP 87621]].<ref name=":0" /><ref name=":1" /> They monopolized research on the unique flora and classified most of the information as of April 3312.<ref name=":0" /><ref name=":1" /> The disclosed information says the Radicoida Unica is capable of remaining dormant for centuries and possesses an unusually complex biochemical composition and cellular resilience, as well as adaptability to local conditions. Researchers from the October Consortium note that, with prolonged exposure, the plant likely forms symbiotic relationships with biological organisms. It appears to be aware of surrounding activity and has a flowering period during which seed capsules are formed. The pulp of these capsules contains a compound that enhances physical performance and reduces decision-making time—at least in laboratory mice. This substance has already been linked to numerous potential medical applications, mainly next-generation stimulants. | Radicoida Unica was first discovered by the [[Lexi October|October Consortium]] in [[HIP 87621]].<ref name=":0" /><ref name=":1" /> They monopolized research on the unique flora and classified most of the information as of April 3312.<ref name=":0" /><ref name=":1" /> The disclosed information says the Radicoida Unica is capable of remaining dormant for centuries and possesses an unusually complex biochemical composition and cellular resilience, as well as adaptability to local conditions.
