Petra’s work is focussed on understanding mycorrhizal communities, their drivers and their role in ecosystem functions. In particular, this research will help us better understand regenerating woodlands, and the role of mycorrhizal fungi in their establishment.

Petra joined Forest Research in 2022 after completing her PhD which dealt with various aspects of ecology of mycorrhizal fungi in woodlands using field studies, mathematical models and restoration experiments.
