"Accomplishes what few other books have--helping growers use
mycorrhizae to improve the immune systems of plants. This natural union
between plants and fungi is the foundation of our food web." --Paul
Stamets, author of Mycelium Running: How Mushrooms Can Help Save the
World
Teaming with Fungi is an important guide to mycorrhizae and the role
they play in agriculture, horticulture, and hydroponics. Almost every
plant in a garden forms a relationship with fungi, and many plants would
not exist without their fungal partners. By better understanding this
relationship, home gardeners can take advantage of the benefits of
fungi, which include an increased uptake in nutrients, resistance to
drought, earlier fruiting, and more. This must-have guide will teach you
how fungi interact with plants and how to best to employ them in your
home garden.
