Hi guys,
I haven’t looked up the academic literature on this yet, but it seems fungi may both increase agricultural yields and sequester carbon. When I saw “fungi” I immediately thought of Elio.
Are “dark septate endophytes” a species that forms microfilie?
Many thanks for your efforts.

PS. TWIM had dropped off my podfeeds for a year and I hadn’t noticed. The feed changed? Vincient, if you could announce changes on TWIV and other channels when they happen, that would be sweet.

Dear TWiM hosts,
Thank you for sharing the link to Mycotalks I emailed after Episode 227. On Episode 227 you shared a paper from Floyd Wormley’s group about immunity to cryptococcosis. Floyd Wormley gave a talk about his group’s work at the most recent Mycotalks. Here is a YouTube link to the virtual talk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s0Rfnh0VTug . This virtual seminar series features 2 speakers/month so it also includes a talk from Neil Gow who gives a talk about signaling across the fungal cell wall. Here is the link for Mycotalks again to access all past and future talks: https://www.exeter.ac.uk/medicalmycology/mycotalks/.
Best,
