Four New Species of Harringtonia: Unravelling the Laurel Wilt Fungal Genus [PDF]
Journal of Fungi, 2022 Symbiosis between beetles and fungi arose multiple times during the evolution of both organisms. Some of the most biologically diverse and economically important are mutualisms in which the beetles cultivate and feed on fungi.
