This project investigates the role of Mucoromycotina fungi in the evolution of early land plants, challenging existing beliefs about plant-fungal symbioses. It aims to explore the diversity and functional significance of these relationships, which are crucial for understanding plant adaptation to environmental changes.
The colonisation of the landmasses by plants >500 Mya was a major turning point in Earth’s history, drastically altering the development of the biosphere and providing the basis for all terrestrial life ever since.
The hypothesis that early plants were facilitated in their invasion of the land environment by forming symbioses with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) is widely supported by fossil and molecular evidence.
My previous findings in physiology identified the role of AMF as a driving for…
