mycorrhizal-networks
Mycorrhizal networks are underground fungal systems that connect plant roots together, forming symbiotic relationships where fungi provide essential nutrients and water in exchange for sugars produced by photosynthesis. These networks fundamentally reshape how plants acquire resources and interact with their environment, enabling nutrient exchange and resource distribution across entire plant communities. Understanding mycorrhizal networks is central to modern plant biology and has significant implications for sustainable agriculture, forestry, and ecosystem restoration.
