Very pleased to be able to say that this comprehensive (and surprising!) metabarcoding survey of Phytophthora communities in British plant nurseries is now in print at bsppjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

This was the work of a large consortium led by Sarah Green at Forest Research.
The prevalence of Phytophthora in British plant nurseries; high‐risk hosts and substrates and opportunities to implement best practice
DNA metabarcoding of root and water samples collected from 132 British plant nurseries over 7 years reveals the prevalence of Phytophthora pathogens, their niche preferences and high-risk hosts and m...

We're looking to expand our board of Reviewing Editors at Microbiology Resource Announcements (MRA) for 2025 (link below). Great for ECRs who would appreciate a relatively light reviewing load to gain experience with editing papers in genomic and other resources.
