Yasin Korkmaz's, Marta Belka's and my new paper explores how overlooked animal vectors spread fungal pathogens in forests. These "cryptic vectors" play a bigger role than we think, especially as climate change shifts species distributions. rdcu.be/edIXl #ForestHealth #FungalEcology #ClimateChange

How cryptic animal vectors of fungi can influence forest health in a changing climate and how to anticipate them
