Therefore, understanding fungal nutritional strategies is not only important from an ecological standpoint but also has implications in agriculture, biotechnology and medicine. The myriad of roles played by fungi in relation to nutrient cycling and their interaction with other organisms shows their importance in different ecosystems.
Since all fungi are heterotrophic, they obtain their energy from other living things. Similar to vertebrates, fungi take energy from live or dead organisms and store it in the bonds of organic substances like sugar and protein.
