What appear to be the largest fossilized AMF spores, almost 2mm in diameter, were found in Portugal 💪

Cristina Rotoni successfully defended her PhD thesis, titled "Joint ventures in plant performance: integrating plant traits, arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, and microbial partnerships to boost productivity" at Utrecht University today.

Congratulations Dr Rotoni!

畑に生えているヒメジョオンの根にも菌根菌は共生しています。根ごと引き抜いて捨てるのは勿体ないのです。

Our opinion piece on soil inoculations as a tool to restore biodiversity and resilience in afforestation on post-agricultural lands. It calls for targeted strategies and monitoring to optimize ecosystem recovery.

Excited to share our paper in @TrendsMicrobiol

This piece is not about microbes but about very critical aspects of academia:

Acaulospora scrobiculata, described by the legendary Jim Trappe in 1977. It is a special species for me as it was the first AMF species that I was able to identify by myself back in 80s when I sampled sand dunes in southern Brazil.
