A study published in PNAS highlights the impact of climate change on tree migrations in the far north.

Trees are struggling to shift to new habitats due to a lack of suitable mycorrhizal fungi in the soil.

35% of tree-fungi partnerships, especially affecting pine trees in North America, could be negatively impacted by climate change.

Trees with more diverse mycorrhizal partnerships have a higher survival rate in harsh conditions.

The research underscores the importance of symbiotic relationships between trees and fungi in adapting to changing environmental conditions.

There is an urgent need to understand and protect these crucial ecological interactions to ensure the survival of trees amidst climate change.
