Soil fungi play major roles in ecosystem functioning and plant resilience to environmental stresses. However, they are often overlooked in ecosystem restoration plans. In the Coastal Range of southern...

Conversamos con Adriana sobre el recién reconocido reino Funga, sobre la importancia de mapear y comprender mejor a los hongos desde el conocimiento local y sobre cómo los hongos nos muestran que todo...

Transitions between saprotrophic and biotrophic lifestyles represent pivotal evolutionary events in fungal ecology; however, the genomic and physiological mechanisms underlying such shifts remain poor...

We are delighted to invite you to the upcoming meeting: Fungal Conservation in Europe: Evidence to Action which will take place in Uppsala, Sweden 14-17 April 2026.

Mushroom-forming fungi have along evolutionary history and a suite of important ecological roles. This Review highlights advances in understanding of Agaricomycetes evolution and ecology driven by gen...

The Society of Fellows at Dartmouth College invites applications for a fellowship in the Department of Environmental Studies.

A new fossil fungus discovered in Scotland shows evidence of plants and fungi sharing nutrients to survive on land.

Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungus–plant hyphosphere networks serve as a keystone ecological infrastructure for sustainable agroecosystems. Exploring AM fungal functionality can lead to increased nutr...

The gold standard for fungal classification has long been specimen or culture-based, however, many Fungi display simple morphological characteristics,…

Dinidorid stinkbugs were reported to possess a conspicuous tympanal organ on female hindlegs. In this study, we show that this organ is specialized to retain microbial symbionts rather than to perceiv...

Before their ecological relevance and unique properties were revealed to me, my earliest memory of fungi was as a whimsical toadstool in the background of a fairytale book. Growing up, I also saw them...

Ectomycorrhizal fungi (EMF) are essential for nutrient cycling and plant symbiosis, yet their invasions remain understudied, particularly in South America. Large-scale forestry introductions have spr...

Heavy metal(loid) contamination in crops has emerged as one of the most critical environmental issues affecting global agriculture today. The presence of these toxic elements not only jeopardizes the

Mycorrhizal fungi form hyphal networks for water and solute transport between soil and plant roots. Trait-based research on these organisms typically focuses on spores and resource exchange structure...
