Our fungal celebration continues!
The relationship between fungi and plants is one of the most famous and consequential connections in biological history. This episode, Aly is here to help us explore how fungi and plants work together and work against each other, what we know about the deep history of their relationship, and how fungi and plants together have shaped the world as we know it.
Fungi will return…
In the news: toothy birds, polar forests, coelacanth evolution, and a Pennsylvanian lagerstatte.
