Summary

In this episode, we continue our journey in the world of mycorrhizal interactions with Dr. Jason Hoeksema. Join us as we investigate the ecological and evolutionary consequences of interactions between trees and mycorrhizal fungi and learn how complex and complicated these relationships truly are. This episode was produced in part by Jamie, Brent, Tanner, Rick, Kazys, Dorothy, Katherine, Emily, Theo, Nichole, Paul, Karen, Randi, Caelan, Tom, Don, Susan, Corbin, Keena, Robin, Peter, Whitney, Kenned, Margaret, Daniel, Karen, David, Earl, Jocelyn, Gary, Krysta, Elizabeth, Southern California Carnivorous Plant Enthusiasts, Pattypollinators, Peter, Judson, Ella, Alex, Dan, Pamela, Peter, Andrea, Nathan, Karyn, Michelle, Jillian, Chellie, Linda, Laura, Miz Holly, Christie, Carlos, Paleo Fern, Levi, Sylvia, Lanny, Ben, Lily, Craig, Sarah, Lor, Monika, Brandon, Jeremy, Suzanne, Kristina, Christine, Silas, Michael, Aristia, Felicidad, Lauren, Danielle, Allie, Jeffrey, Amanda, Tommy, Marcel, C Leigh, Karma, Shelby, Christopher, Alvin, Arek, Chellie, Dani, Paul, Dani, Tara, Elly, Colleen, Natalie, Nathan, Ario, Laura, Cari, Margaret, Mary, Connor, Nathan, Jan, Jerome, Brian, Azomonas, Ellie, University Greens, Joseph, Melody, Patricia, Matthew, Garrett, John, Ashley, Cathrine, Melvin, OrangeJulian, Porter, Jules, Griff, Joan, Megan, Marabeth, Les, Ali, Southside Plants, Keiko, Robert, Bryce, Wilma, Amanda, Helen, Mikey, Michelle, German, Joerg, Cathy, Tate, Steve, Kae, Carole, Mr. Keith Santner, Lynn, Aaron, Sara, Kenned, Brett, Jocelyn, Ethan, Sheryl, Runaway Goldfish, Ryan, Chris, Alana, Rachel, Joanna, Lori, Paul, Griff, Matthew, Bobby, Vaibhav, Steven, Joseph, Brandon, Liam, Hall, Jared, Brandon, Christina, Carly, Kazys, Stephen, Katherine, Mohsin Kazmi Takes Pictures, Manny, doeg, Daniel, Tim, Philip, Tim, Lisa, Brodie, Bendix, Irene, holly, Sara, and Margie.

0:00.0	Hello everyone and welcome to the Indefensive Plants Podcast, the official podcast of
0:04.1	indefensiveplants.com.
0:05.1	What's up?
0:06.1	This is your host Matt.
0:07.1	Welcome to the show.
0:08.1	How is everyone doing this week?
0:09.6	I am doing great because I am just currently obsessed with this idea of plants and their
0:14.4	micro-risal partnerships and how context-dependent those relationships can be.
0:19.2	So I want to keep that conversation going and to do that we are talking today to Dr. Jason
0:23.4	Hoaxima, who studies a myriad ways of which plants and micro-risal fungi partner and
0:28.8	how complex and often context-dependent those relationships are.
0:33.5	We of course talk about this concept of the wood-wide web and the ways in which journalism
0:38.2	has gotten ahead of the science often in aeronious ways.
0:42.5	But more than that we talk about the ways that theory and practical applications of research
0:47.1	can combine to do something really fascinating to teach us about a really complex world going
0:52.3	on underneath our feet.
0:54.5	Before I get to that I just want to say this podcast cannot happen without support and
0:58.3	there is a lot of great ways to do that but one of the best is to become a patron over

1:04.8	For just a tiny financial contribution each month you get a lot of great kickbacks and
1:08.8	best of all you ensure this show has a future.
1:11.7	I couldn't be doing this without my patrons and I thank each and every one of them for
