Fungal networks, often referred to as mycorrhizal networks, are intricate systems formed by the underground growth of fungi. These networks connect the roots of different plants, allowing them to share nutrients, water, and information. This symbiotic relationship benefits both the fungi and the plants, promoting healthier ecosystems. These networks can span large areas, linking multiple species and enhancing biodiversity. Through hyphae, the thread-like structures of fungi, plants can communicate and support each other, especially during times of stress, such as drought. This collaboration plays a crucial role in maintaining the balance of forest and grassland ecosystems.
