An Inside Look at How Plants and Mycorrhizal Fungi Cooperate
Researchers have studied both sides of plant-fungi symbiosis in one of the first cross-kingdom spatially-resolved transcriptomics studies to date.

More »Researchers have pioneered new understanding of which fungi take on certain functions at the forest floor. For the first time, they compared three different fungal guilds in a range of different locations. They sampled soils in four forest ecosystems, extracted RNA to understand gene expression, and developed new tools to map that soil RNA to fungal genomes.
