Old tech but still good. Measuring soil microbial basal respiration in soils with and without megaherbivores 🐘 with Smithsonian #soil #carbon #microbes

Great if sobering talk at #ICOM12 by Matthias C. Rillig (currently sabbatical @OIST) on the reality of how multiple (vs single) global change factors decrease both plant biomass and arbuscular #mycorrhiza. Innovative experimental design to look at this too. International Mycorrhiza Society Conservation Intl

Bravo to Carrillo Saucedo for using art to illuminate the world of #mycorrhiza at #ICOM12. Check out the embroidery education project on poster P149

Intriguing talks about dark septate endophtes, as well as facultative and even "non-mycorrhizal" plants at #ICOM12 . Are these the new frontiers?

New @NComms paper from Plant-Soil Interactions Lab 🥳 Soil carbon's stability under future climate change is uncertain. We challenge current understanding demonstrating how plant inputs interact with soil microbes and soil minerals to determine soil carbon stability nature.com/articles/s4146…

The pros and cons of working with a puddy - inspiration (top) but sometimes physical obstruction (bottom). Hang on aren't those both pros?! What do you think?🐈😻 #CatsOfTwitter #catsforscience
