  Well screw them, get over here and tell me about it. Sounds interesting as hell, and I only really have a base understanding of it. I’ll get a table ready.

    Okay so you know how you have a gut microbiome that’s part of how you digest all this weird crap, like a whole ecosystem? Like how when you eat something you havent in a while, it doesn’t necessarily go down easy, because you might have a small/extinct population of whatever handles some of the stuff in there?

    That’s nothing compared to plants and fungi-anf its not totally clear which, if either, is in control.

  Maybe they’re more into endosymbiotic nitrogen-fixing organelles

  right??? like how would you need to adjust the rhizomes for a new planet if it had a suitable atmosphere but no organisms

    I guess plants can also grow without mycorrhiza associations or nitrogen fixing bacteria. But otherwise you could probably add fungi/bacteria into the mix, too. I don’t think we are even close to understand all the different interactions between various microorganisms with larger organisms with plants. Even pathogenic associations are sometimes net positive for plants.

  You obviously need a better family. Who doesn’t want to hear more about fungi?

  is it true trees use it to communicate, and “think”? sounds dope as fuck tbh.

  • flora_explora@beehaw.org ⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    I’m sceptical. A lot of this is popular science that anthropomorphizes these relationships and blow them out of proportion. What you may think of “communicate” and “think” does not necessarily reflect what is meant in this context.

  Meet them half way and talk about family trees and their relation to this fun guy.

  Can someone talk to me about them? Explain like I’m a relatively not-stupid person with little experience in biology
