Grateful to see our paper featured in an Eos Research Spotlight, “How Plant–Fungi Friendships Are Changing.” Cool title!
Mycorrhizal fungi provide plants with nitrogen, but in exchange they take up to half the carbon plants pull from the atmosphere. In a new study, researchers investigate how the environment influences this give-and-take.
How Plant-Fungi Friendships Are Changing - Eos
A new framework shows how much carbon plants allocate to their endosymbionts and how that amount might change in the face of warming soil and rising carbon dioxide levels.

New paper! 📢
Our paper on modeling mycorrhizal carbon costs is out in @jgrbiogeo.bsky.social
Running the Myco-CORPSE model across 1800+ eastern U.S. forest sites, we validated modeled tree C allocation to AM & ECM fungi against literature data — the first such test ever! 🌲🍄 doi.org/10.1029/2025...
