ABOUT THE LIVE WEBINAR
Mycorrhizal fungi are vital partners in plant survival and forest health, yet they often go unnoticed due to their hidden nature and complexity. This engaging webinar introduces participants to the fascinating world of mycorrhizal fungi and their critical roles in forest ecosystems. Learn from global researchers about fungal biodiversity, the intricate connections between fungi and carbon cycling, and how these underground networks shape the world above. The session will also highlight the work of the Society for the Protection of Underground Networks and its efforts to conserve this essential, unseen life.
