Trees forming partnerships with two different types of mycorrhizal fungi can better withstand drought and nutrient scarcity.

Researchers have created a new fungus battery that can be powered just by feeding it water and nutrients, not recharging it.

When trees and soil fungi form close associations with each other, both partners benefit. Many tree species have further ...

“Ultimately, fungi helped plants move away from being these marginal tiny little things on the water’s edge into large forests and entire ecosystems,” explains Katie Field, an associate ...

When trees and soil fungi form close associations with each other, both partners benefit. Many tree species have further enhanced this cooperation by forming a concurrent symbiosis with two different ...
