Really nice work from @jellespooren.bsky.social showing that disease-suppressive soils might sometimes be generated in the phyllosphere. Turning the concept of soilborne legacies upside down 🌱🦠 With @cornepieterse.bsky.social @svanwees.bsky.social and others @utrechtpmi.bsky.social
Proud to share our latest pre-print manuscript entitled 'Downy mildew disease-suppressive soils transmit a protective core microbiome to the phyllosphere' (lnkd.in/dBk28gnT). Super cool to see the final chapter of my PhD at the Plant-Microbe Interactions group of Universiteit Utrecht now online!

Happy to announce that NWO funded a project in which @cornepieterse.bsky.social and my team will explore the ancient links between rapid #auxin signaling and immune responses. My first careful steps in the plant-microbe interactions community…

Seed tuber microbiome can predict growth potential of potato varieties - Nature Microbiology
Time-resolved drone imaging of potato crop development and seed tuber microbiome data can be used to predict potato vigour, or growth potential, in next-season crops in trial fields.
