Our maps predicted the steppes of Kazakhstan as hotspots of fungal biodiversity. No samples had been collected to identify which mycorrhizal fungi exist there.
@bethanfmanley.bsky.social and @thecrobe.bsky.social went to ground truth the prediction and New Humanist wrote about it: buff.ly/oIg3dDo

Fascinating and important work on rainforest restoration and mycorrhizal networks by @bethanfmanley.bsky.social
Magic mushrooms: how scientists discovered fungi are the secret ingredient for restoring the world’s forests
Healthy fungal networks help trees and plants grow, making them key to successful reforestation. The only problem? Almost nothing is known about this subterranean ecology

Check out our latest paper on AM fungi, knowledge gaps and @globalgoalsun.bsky.social Sustainable Development Goals... AM fungi might be too small for us to see, but are too important for us to lose! Amazing work led by @thecrobe.bsky.social and @bethanfmanley.bsky.social 👇
Over 70% of Earth's ecoregions have yet to be sampled for arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi.
By analyzing eDNA sample locations, we found most soils are unsampled. Drylands are especially overlooked despite covering almost 1/3 of the Earth's terrestrial land.
