Bread Bag Nightmares - What would happen if you changed the temperature?

Most fungi grow best around room temperature. But they can grow at a range of temperatures from cold (like in a refrigerator) to quite warm (body temperature). At temperatures colder or warmer than their favorite temperature, they usually do not grow as rapidly. If the temperature is too cold or too hot, they will not grow at all, and may even be killed.
