“
In addition to monitoring plants and animals of conservation concern, more and more conservationists are interested in including fungi in monitoring programs to capture more of the organisms, ecological interactions, and functions in a given habitat. But, how should we best monitor fungi? This is still largely undecided, particularly so for microscopic fungi in habitats where there has been little historic research, like lakes, rivers, and oceans. This is why we need MOSTFUN!”
