Plant - Soil Interactions
This module is designed to guide students through observing differences between landscapes and ecosystems and asking questions about how plant-soil interactions might affect those differences. Because there is so much to learn about soils, we focus on mycorrhizae as a really cool example of a soil organism that is key to plant-soil interactions.
