What happens if you put mushroom spores on top of a living mushroom of a different species?

As far as I would guess from some brief research, nothing would happen, except maybe the spores would be picked up by the wind and the mushrooms would grow elsewhere. Mushroom spores only form mushrooms given special conditions, e.g., the spore must land on the ground where it can form a network of mycelium threads below ground and then grow the 'fruiting' part of the plant above ground. What I imagin you're wondering is if a mushroom could grow ontop of another mushroom. Chances are the base mushrom would not provide the correct nutrients for the mycelium to grow.
