Carbon Cycling and Mycorrhizal Symbiosis - Dr Andy Taylor, The James Hutton Institute

Webinar Overview

The great majority of terrestrial plants form mycorrhizal associations with soil fungi, with a reciprocal exchange of sugars for soil-derived nutrients forming the basis for these ancient relationships. The cycling of carbon between the atmosphere, plants, and the soil has been intimately linked for millions of years to the physiological interactions and the traits developed during the coevolution of host plants and their associated mycorrhizal partners.

This webinar will illustrate some of the influences that the mycorrhizal symbiosis has on carbon sequestration in managed and natural ecosystems.
