Extinction risk and threats to plants and fungi
Nic Lughadha, Eimear; Bachman, Steven P.; Leão, Tarciso C. C.; Forest, Félix; Halley, John M.; Moat, Justin; Acedo, Carmen; Bacon, Karen L.Plant and fungal biodiversity underpin life on earth and merit careful stewardship in an increasingly uncertain environment.
