All that time they’ve been nibbling at this stone, producing acid that creates tiny cracks for hyphae anchors. Scientists claim that given enough time, which admittedly is a lot, lichen will ...

AM fungi make threads of hyphae thinner than spider silk and weave them through plant roots. Then, they begin to trade, offering plants water and phosphorus, a vital plant nutrient in soils.

Watch nutrients flow through an underground circulatory system that connects fungi and plants. A new study shows how these networks form. 0:10 Researchers are trying to understand the underground ...

Small organisms can have a big impact, and researchers have explored nearly a dozen nontraditional yeast strains to determine which ones could brew the best nonalcoholic beers for a rapidly ...

Introduction: Tobacco root rot caused by Fusarium spp. is a soil-borne vascular disease that severely affects tobacco production worldwide. To date, the community composition and functional shifts of ...

The rhizosphere, a biologically active zone where plant roots interface with soil, plays a crucial role in enhancing plant health, resilience, and stress tolerance. As a key component in achieving ...
