Is there an edible mushroom that is able to grow on conifers?

Context:

In agroforestry systems we often intervene to reduce growth of less helpful trees in the system. I prefer to do this with as little harm (compaction, noise, felling damage) as possible. Some saprophytic mushrooms like leatiporus, pleurotus are really good at this, while producing food from low edibility rated trees like Robinia along the way.

Boosts welcome 🙏

@iwein in the Pacific Northwest I generally advise people not to eat anything that is fruiting directly off a conifer

ymmv, idk anything about foraging in other parts of the world

but here, pretty bad choice
