Exciting explorations to better understand the traits that facilitate survival in the rhizosphere! Great joint project with @utrechtpmi and @BinfUtrecht

[Hannah Büttner @Buettner_H]

Two are better than one! In the strong partnership of a soil beneficial fungus and its bacterial endosymbiont the bacterial production of two metabolites synergistically promote the host protection against nematode predators.@Hertweck_Lab @ChemicalScience https://t.co/W85ITFIksy

A nice collaborative effort on a really interesting topic! Great to see it online! @utrechtpmi @UU_Plants @MiCRop_research #microbiome #agriculture

@nerimanyilmaz82 @_Westerdijk_ @mycobiomics @CobusVisagie2 @FungusCrous @JosHoubraken Yay! Will be great to see some FABIans this side!😃

Transylvanian is known as the fictional home of Count Dracula. Now, with our publication in Nature Microbiology it becomes the home of the first methane-eating Mycobacterium. Thanks to our team, the fellowship of the cave, led by Rob van Spanning and @wilbertbitter.@BinfUtrecht

Here are 10 fool-proof steps to create clear & concise figures for your next research paper.

(Because how you visually communicate the results of your study is as important as the text!)

Forever thankful to those who put in the hard work to get us to this stage! And excited that I will soon use this new system to name a new bacterial species from stink bugs!

Great to see this summary of work we do in the metagenomics group @BinfUtrecht and we had the opportunity to share this with young upcoming scientists @UniUtrecht. Many internship projects available if you’re interested! @lingyi_owl @Ch_Melkonian @BEDutilh

[Arista @Arfourie]

@nerimanyilmaz82 @DrAndiWilson @inqababiotec Well done!! Now the exciting part starts😁👏🏻

@EvolvedBiofilm @ImDrBooth Thanks Akos!! Preprint thread to follow shortly 👀👀👀

[MiCRop - Microbial Imprinting for Crop Resilience @MiCRop_research]

It's Dutch #weekendvandewetenschap! Come meet MiCRop at the Open Day at Science Park 904 in Amsterdam, look at some nice fungi, try to catch phosphates in a virtual environment, and much more! See you there! Full programme: https://t.co/uEgIVUM0V9

Cool. Leo Eberl's @leberl2 group identified a T4BSS from P. putida that can deliver toxic effectors into bacterial competitors in a contact-dependent manner, breaking the paradigm that T4BSSs are only used for effector transfer into eukaryotic cells.

Do you know that Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Pa) can push its competitor, Klebsiella pneumoniae, away? Here is a movie to show you how. @pseudocap @pseudo_papers

Dear all, we are happy to announce that the official publication of the #SeqCode is now live. Please circulate this paper among your colleagues, and let's open together a new chapter in the prokaryotic nomenclature...

[Arista @Arfourie]

Love these visuals to explain in easy terms how bacteria can be useful in plant production and numerous other fields!

[BacterialWorld @Bacterialworld]

Bacteria developed many nasty toxins to kill their competitors. 💀

These generally inhibit essential mechanisms in the prey's metabolism.

Saw this @msichicago and definitely have to agree.
