MycoMap BC: How DNA is revealing British Columbia’s Hidden Fungal Diversity

-
Bob Harkins Branch

Help improve our understanding of BC mushrooms! Join Elora Adamson, coordinator of MycoMap BC, for an introduction to the project and information on how to contribute. MycoMap BC is a new project that uses community science and DNA sequencing to map fungal biodiversity across the province. Participation is open to all, with no mycological expertise required. Participation from those in Central and Northern BC is especially valuable due to the relative lack of data in those areas. Join us to learn more about it!
