Scientists build robot to track plant-fungal trade networks, revealing nature's underground supply chains

New research published in the journal Nature on February 26, 2025, uses advanced robotics to track the hyper-efficient supply chains formed between plants and mycorrhizal fungi as they trade carbon and nutrients across the complex, living networks that help regulate the Earth's atmosphere and ecosystems.
