“It gives us an idea of how these two organisms might interact.” Because infected ants lost their normal activity patterns but still summited at a particular time, de Bekker suspected that circadian ...

There also appear to be differences in the way the various species of fungi interact in each case. Delgado explains, “Interestingly, it was the group with rhinitis and comorbid asthma that ...

“These are absolutely critical interactions for both the aboveground and belowground world,” says Michael van Nuland, a soil microbe scientist who focuses on tree-fungi relationships.

Beyond this plant-fungus co-evolution lies another phenomenon that scientists are just beginning to understand: how these fungi interact with bacterial communities in the soil. It turns out that ...

There are many types of fungi that can infect frogs, and it is possible there are fungus-frog interactions yet to be discovered. A frog with signs of fungal disease, such as “altered behavior of ...

But it is also expected because it fits the pattern of healthy microbiomes throughout the body, including the gut, mouth, and skin, where bacteria and fungi interact as part of a complex community.” ...

It will also be important to piece together how bacteria, viruses and fungi interact and contribute to cancer, says Nadim Ajami, a microbiome specialist at the MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston ...

Mushrooms and possibly all fungi have the ability to cool down by “sweating” away water, a new study reveals. It’s not yet clear why fungi might want to stay cool. However, the discovery ...

Nicole Hynson For all their myriad and longstanding services to plants throughout their evolutionary history, mycorrhizal fungi have been largely neglected by agronomists and botanists until recently.
