🌲Research shows post-#agricultural forests dominated by arbuscular #mycorrhizal trees have depauperate ectomycorrhizal fungal communities that may hinder establishment of historically dominant ectomycorrhizal #trees, potentially limiting #forest function! besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/13…

What determines transfer of carbon from plants to mycorrhizal fungi? For the past 2 years, we debated this question. And I mean debated. nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/np… #TansleyReview New Phytologist 1/n



I'm giving a talk at my alma mater this week! Acadia Research Acadia University So excited!

New paper🚨: Ever wonder how plants talk to fungi? When plants are low on phosphate (Pi), they exude #Strigolactones (SLs) in soil to obtain Pi from microbes. We show a broad range of fungi in soil respond to SLs 👇 Is the SL response in fungi conserved? authors.elsevier.com/a/1jsQB3vVUPRm…
