Ancient plants grown in state-of-the-art growth chambers recreating environmental conditions from more than 400 million years ago have shown scientists from the University of Sheffield how soil dwelling fungi played a crucial role in the evolution of plants.

Four Sierra Vista Health Care Center employees in Colorado complained that mold in the facility gave them health problems.

An increasing number of crops commercially grown today are genetically modified (GM) to resist insect pests and/or tolerate herbicides.

Mold was discovered in most of Rowan University townhouses.

Most plants live in symbiosis with soil fungi and are supplied with water and nutrients as a result.
