While looking around for a paper in conservation biology, I stumbled upon this study about the coral associated marine fungi. I was very interested, may it be that #fungi can ride the popularity of #coral in some #research line?
Could that even mean... I'll find a job one day?
Keypoints for the layman:
we didn't know many of the species (as it is often the case for fungi, especially marine ones)
Many overlap with the ones found in sponges
Only a few, like 11 species (or OTUs) are likely to be really associate in a symbiosis
What do they do there? No fucking clue.
