Exploring the Mycology and Parasitology of Plant Life: Roots and Rivals
£78.95
Usually dispatched within 6-10 days
This book delves into the fascinating and often unseen dynamics of plant life. It unravels the complex relationships plants share with fungi and parasitic organisms, shedding light on a world teeming with cooperation, competition, and survival.At the book’s heart lies an exploration of mycology, the study of fungi, and parasitology as they intersect with Botany. Readers will journey into the intricate web of fungal networks that support plant growth, from mycorrhizal fungi facilitating nutrient exchange to endophytes bolstering plant resilience against stress. This book also delves into the more ominous elements of plant existence, showcasing how parasites such as mistletoe, dodder, and nematodes conduct biochemical warfare to drain resources from their unwilling victims.Written for science enthusiasts, researchers, and environmentalists, the book offers an accessible yet profound look into the interconnectedness of life below and above the soil, inviting readers to rethink their perception of plant mycorrhizal association, not as solitary organisms but as players in a vibrant, competitive, and collaborative community.
