Fast🏃 and slow 🐌 growing plant species interact in fundamental different ways and these differences shape ecological networks. Check our latest work @Ecology_Letters led by @karo_daniel together w/ @AllanEcology@HugoSaizB https://t.co/FQ2xWB3G2l
🌿📷PHD POSITION 📷📷We are advertising a new PhD position in the Allan Ecology Lab in Bern, Switzerland. To work on the super exciting field experiment looking at plant coexistence and biodiversity functioning mechanisms #PhDposition Please Retweet!
Please come and join us for a nice coffee and poster session at the 23rd Swiss Global Change Day! ☀️We discuss the impacts of agricultural treatment on soil, insect and plant communities within our field experiment, PaNDiv #SGCD23
Last but not least! Our final group member to present @karo_daniel showed funct. diversity can be represented by network metrics built from competition matrices and that resource addition (N) and pathogens affect competition slow and fast growing species differently! #INTECOL2022
Next up for the @AllanEcology at #INTECOL2022 is the brilliant @SchenkNoelle - beta diversity in turnover and nestedness effect beta multifunctionality. Increased land use intensity also strongly decreases beta multifunctionality. Data from @BExplo_research 🌿
A fantastic talk today by PhD student @karo_daniel explaining her exciting new research about plant competition and using network theory to study competition and how it is affected by nitrogen, fungicide and plant diversity. Work done as part of our #PaNDiv experiment!
Not all species groups obey -1/4 metabolic scaling laws. Species where adult:offspring size ratio is not a constant (fish and bivalves) have non-metabolic scaling. New paper by @DenechereR in @ASNAmNat: https://t.co/XV5vd7cZK1
Exciting Postdoc position available in our group! "Direct and indirect effects of climate change on plant-herbivore interactions", together with the @CentreOeschger at the University of Bern @unibern

Our global change experiment - PaNDiv - will be on TV soon! We had two fun days with cameraman Franco and producer Jo, and are happy to share some impressions from the making of. More soon on @nano! Merci Hugo Vincent for the pics!
#PaNDiv is getting ready for first fieldwork season ! Next two weeks we'll be measuring our focal plants height and how crowded is the area where they'll be growing... Hopefully there'll be no snow anymore (photo : this morning in field vs yesterday in Bern) 😅 #plantcoexistence
Saviez-vous que les plantes sont capables de reconnaitre leurs frères et sœurs ? On le sait grâce à l'expérience géniale menée par Susan Dudley en 2007 à l'Université McMaster. Un petit thread qui va vous faire changer de regard sur les plantes.🌱
