Research Description
I explore mycorrhizal and nitrogen-fixing associations by mapping the diversity of tree symbiotic guilds and their fungal and bacterial partners in Australian forests. My research spans national (all forests) to bioregional (broad-leaf temperate forests) scales. I aim to identify diversity hot-spots and primary global change threats to these vital partnerships.
