Why do you think this fungus would absorb more radiation than e.g. a similar volume of water?
not more exactly but could make use of the energy to grow whatever the shield is made of. byproducts like salad greens lol
wouldnt fungus also use the radiation since it needs it to live? water just gets more and more irradiated since everything just stays
