The Mycorrhizal Network: Do trees really speak to each other?
from SUGi Talks · host SUGi
SUGi Talks 🌿 EP06: The Mycorrhizal Network: Do trees really speak to each other? Did you know that underneath the forest floor a sophisticated network of fungi forms a secret super highway between plants? Carrying resources and chemical messengers, this highway acts as a mysterious support system allowing trees to communicate and share material. The Mycorrhizal Network, or the Wood Wide Web, was popularised by Dr. Suzanne Simard in her book “Finding the Mother Tree”. On this episode of SUGi Talks we speak with our SUGi Forest Maker in Chile: Gabriel Orrego, who is also a former student of Dr. Simard and the co-founder of Symbiótica. Together, we’ll explore this secret system of cooperation underneath our feet. Thank you Gabriel!
