Scientists have developed a specialized imaging robot to track plant-fungal trade networks, revealing nature’s underground ...

New research published in the journal Nature on February 26, 2025, uses advanced robotics to track the hyper-efficient supply chains formed between plants and mycorrhizal fungi as they trade carbon ...

Underground fungal networks are “living algorithms” that quietly help regulate Earth’s climate. Now scientists know what makes them so efficient.

They found that mycorrhizal fungi—tiny helpers in the soil—play a big role in helping grasslands store more carbon, both near the surface and in deeper soil layers, by promoting plant ...

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi are among the most critical soil organisms, they form symbiotic associations with roots that helps many plants species to thrive. This spore of the arbuscular ...

Scientists have developed a method that uses robotics to track the connections between plants and the mycorrhizal fungi that ...

Soils around the world are polluted, worn out, over-fertilised and exhausted. How did we get to a place where we think of soil as dirt? Soils are buzzing with life, criss-crossed with a hard-to-fathom ...
