[CANUFNET] CBC Quirks & Quarks - Mycorrhizae Research

[Kevin Mengers]

Greetings!

Last week I caught a re-airing of this interview on CBC Radio's Quirks & Quarks.

I found the interview and a brief read of the Paper very interesting. I was also compelled to ponder; to what extent my daily attempts at assisting home and property owners with their stressed and declining trees might be heavily influenced by the lack of a Mycorrhizae relationship in Urban Soils?

Enjoy!

Best Regards,
