I asked ChatGPT to create a visualization of my workspace (office and lab) based on my list of publications, and here’s the result! 🧬🔬 From fungal cultures to genome analysis stations, it captures the essence of our research #ScienceArt #LabLife #Genomics #PlantPathology

📢How does #AMF genotype/nuclear organization affect cover-crop yields, nutrient acquisition and Carbon capture? 👉Check out the tremendous work by Robbie Ferguson in collaboration w Pedro M. Antunes and Cynthia Kallenbach, and with Ken_Mugambi 🤘🤘🤘 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

After much consideration, I’ve decided to join the thriving community on #Bluesky! I’m looking forward to exploring a platform that aligns more with fostering open dialogue and meaningful interactions. 📍Follow me on Bluesky: bsky.app/profile/riccar…

We're hiring! If you're looking for a postdoc position and are interested in #fungal genomics and/or giant transposons please apply. We're hoping to find someone with experience transforming A. fumigatus. uu.varbi.com/what:job/jobID…

“The 2024 Outline of Fungi and Fungus-like Taxa” is here, providing a comprehensive update to the fungal taxonomic landscape. With over 1000 notes on new genera & taxa, it’s an essential resource for mycologists worldwide. mycosphere.org/pdf/MYCOSPHERE… #Mycology #Fungi #taxonomy

I’m thrilled to let you now that your paper on a Fusarium forming mutualistic interactions with poplar that resemble ectomycorrhizal symbiosis was published in IMA Fungus: doi.org/10.3897/imafun…

Our new study reveals diverse #Colletotrichum species causing pre-harvest #apple 🍎 bitter rot and Glomerella leaf spot in Italy. Findings highlight the need for targeted disease management strategies to protect apple orchards. The American Phytopathological Society Regione Emilia-Romagna doi.org/10.1094/PDIS-1…

Genome evolution of #AMF and filamentous plant pathogens is strikingly similar 🤯 Jordana Oliveira shows that A/B compartments are common in AMF. Within these, TEs locate preferentially near effectors within evolving rapidly genome regions (B-comps)... academic.oup.com/gbe/article/17…
