Where two fungal pathogens are expected to spread

Parts of the US, Canada, Europe and northern Asia are expected to become more suitable habitats for infection-causing fungi Apergillus flavus and Aspergillus fumigatus by the year 2100. Meanwhile, a warming climate means temperatures could become too hot to support the fungi in parts of South America, Africa and Australia, according to a new study by researchers at the University of Manchester.

Note: Data reflects SSP245 emissions pathway, which assumes a moderate reduction in planet-heating pollution.
