Experts said that the fires are so intense that they’re making their own pyrocumulus cloud systems. The clouds can be seen as wide, spectacular columns of dark gray smoke in the sky. They stretch vertically for a […]

Say hello to my little friend: Trees have developed a symbiotic relationship with fungi to survive drought stress
New analysis of the symbiotic relationship between trees and fungi decodes how the pair withstands drought. These conclusions give scientists a better understanding of how the mutual association can be used to develop more plant feedstocks for bioenergy in case of drought. By investigating how specific adaptations of common fungi are created in relation to […]
