I became interested in entomopathogenic fungi fungi that kill insects.

Those organisms that paired with fungi were rewarded, because fungi do not need light.

Fungi don't like to rot from bacteria, and so our best antibiotics come from fungi.

Sunlight was cut off, and fungi inherited the Earth.

Those fungi and bacteria are as highly evolved as humans.

So, the prospect of fungi existing on other planets elsewhere,

Preserving the genome of these fungi in the old growth forest

Irrigation encourages the growth of stem rust fungi like UG 99

Consider the fungi including mushrooms, rusts, molds and many disease causing organisms.

Viruses, bacteria, protozoa, and fungi... the four musketeers of the pathogenic world.

So, fungi and mycelium sequester carbon dioxide in the form of calcium oxalates.

Pathogens are bacteria, viruses or fungi the things that cause diseases or infections.

Everything is covered in invisible ecosystems made of tiny lifeforms bacteria, viruses and fungi.

We call it mycophobia, the irrational fear of the unknown, when it comes to fungi.

In fact, we're more closely related to fungi than we are to any other kingdom.

Uh, yeah, well, uh, I grew spores and fungi... in my parents' refrigerator this summer.

Most of you may not know that fungi were the first organisms to come to land.

Fungi multiplied. Orchids emerged, genitalia shaped to lure insects ... a trick shared by the largest flower on Earth.

And the root system, and also through beneficial fungi, which link up everything under the ground and move nutrients around.

Fungi married algae ... clinging to rock, and eating it too ... transforming barren land. True land plants arose, leafless at first.

Six different broad approaches the plants, the animals, the fungi, the protests the little things the bacteria and the Archaea bacteria.

I want to present to you a suite of six mycological solutions, using fungi, and these solutions are based on mycelium.

More recently, at Einstein University, they just determined that fungi use radiation as a source of energy, much like plants use light.

A group of 20 eukaryotic microbiologists published a paper two years ago erecting opisthokonta a super kingdom that joins animalia and fungi together.

You get fungi, you get fish, you get plants, you get amphibia, you get reptiles, and then, of course, you get the dinosaurs.

Most of us don't have fungi or algae in our brains, so what is our brain going to do if we put that in?

And there are a few other land dwellers that can make light some insects, earthworms, fungi but in general, on land, it's really rare.

We are planning to send the QST 713 strain of bacillus subtilis into space to see if it will become more virulent to fungi,

There's one last elephant in the room, the proteins themselves, which come from algae and bacteria and fungi, and all over the tree of life.

Even the most extreme animals fight for survival, and only cold adapted organisms survive there, including many types of algae, animals, bacteria, fungi, plants, and protista.

If there's a lot of nitrogen in one place in the soil and a lack of nitrogen in the other, the fungi will move it for you.

So, I went to the EPA homepage, and they were recommending studies with metarhizium species of a group of fungi that kill carpenter ants, as well as termites.

And the species in the soil go to work basically chewing through those roots, decomposing them the earthworms, the fungi, the bacteria and the result is new soil.

The Life Box you're gonna be getting a DVD of the TED conference you add soil, you add water, you have mycorrhizal and endophytic fungi as well as spores,

You could fly 100 Ph.D. students under the umbrella of this concept, because my supposition is that entomopathogenic fungi, prior to sporulation, attract the very insects that are otherwise repelled by those spores.

Then, what is just as important get the right fungi in there that will grow into those leaves, bring back the nutrients to the roots of the trees that have just dropped that leaf within 24 hours.

And he got to then learn about all the millions of different bacteria and fungi that were also in the soil that keep it fertile, cycle the nutrients, that hold those nutrients in their bodies and release them to the plants, and they weren't in his soil.
