Re: Tree DNA
Wow! Thank you for sharing that.
Barely related: Have you read “The Overstory” by Richard Powers? It’s fiction, but it contains a lot of tree science explained so that we can understand it. I’m not going to live long enough to really understand trees ( there’s too much to learn even if I started young, but I am fascinated with them.
