Wednesday Nite @ The Lab

Although fungi have played important roles in the earth’s history, we know very little about them because so few have been fossilized. However, the ability to sequence hundreds of fungal genomes has made it possible to understand more about fungal evolution. At this presentation, hear about the amazing, few fungi that have been fossilized, as well as the role that fungi played in the Carboniferous and the formation of the coal deposits we use today.
