MINERAL BALANCE. "When soil resources, such as P or N, limit photosynthesis, C is in excess. Mycorrhizal fungal hyphae explore the soil volume for P and N, and transport the nutrient (over distances of cm to m) in exchange for excess plant C. Mycorrhizal hyphae are more efficient at exploring the soil volume than even fine roots. As long as P or N are limiting, plants will support mycorrhizal fungi." https://lnkd.in/e7Tq5KC View in LinkedIn

MINERAL SUPPLY. "The crucial role of mycorrhizal fungi in improving the mineral nutrition of their host plants is well established. Mycorrhizal roots take up P, N, Zn, Cu, Ni, S, Mn, B, Fe, Ca, and K from soil more efficiently than nonmycorrhizal roots, especially at low fertility levels." https://lnkd.in/e7Tq5KC View in LinkedIn

OTHER APPLICATIONS. "Beyond the challenges posed by optical waves, cloaking has been studied and proposed for sound, mechanical, seismic, and even matter waves. This has been possible because all these phenomena are governed by wave equations, in many ways analogous to the way electromagnetic signals and light propagate." https://lnkd.in/ejq5Tyt View in LinkedIn
