DNA🧬 is being extracted and sequenced to assess seasonal dynamics of #aquaticfungi biodiversity in several regions in Europe.

Stay tuned! 🍄💧

Mobility of ECRs between Partners labs is one example of #FUNACTION transnational added value.

Ziming🇸🇪 and Pietro🇮🇹 visited our Estonian🇪🇪 team where they were trained and collaborated on sample preparation and #eDNA extraction.
