Mycorrhizal fungi help regulate the Earth's climate and ecosystems by forming underground networks that provide plants with essential nutrients, while drawing carbon deep into soils. Scientists and ...

Importantly, Mueller's team showed that many arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi also produce their own CLE16-like peptides, which also promoted symbiosis when added to the soil.
