Pushing the frontiers of biodiversity research: Unveiling the global diversity, distribution, and conservation of fungi
Fungi comprise approximately 20% of all eukaryotic species and are connected to virtually
all life forms on Earth. Yet, their diversity remains contentious, their distribution elusive, and …
