I am currently excited to be starting up more experiments with #AMF in #microfluidic chip systems to follow up on this study together with postdoc @aylamonges.bsky.social, @edithhammer.bsky.social and @hanbangzou.bsky.social and look at hyphal decision making.

Hallo Blueskylers. Todays lab outcome: nice video footage on nanoplastic interaction with fungal hyphae. U see green nanoplastic dots depositing or bypassing the hyphae (alongated shape). Not good for publication, but exciting to look at 😀 #nanoplastic #groundwater #fungi #microfluidics #soilchip

Agricultural drought affects soil microbes, especially fungi and microbes associated with roots. Although organic and conventional farming systems promote unique microbiomes, both systems may encounter similar challenges during severe drought conditions. doi.org/10.1016/j.ej...
