Unraveling complexity in climate change effects on beneficial plant–microbe interactions: mechanisms, resilience, and future directions
Plant microbiomes have the potential to mitigate the impacts of climate change, yet both the complexity of climate change and the complexity of plant–microbe interactions make applications and future....

My 2nd dissertation chapter is out in Plant, Cell, & Environment!
We use a model legume to assess how plant host genotype and microbes non-additively interact to shape plant growth and disease ecology.
Check it out here: doi.org/10.1111/pce....

Excited to share our paper in @pnas.org with Aldo Compagnoni and Tom Miller !
Climate change may push dioecious plants toward female-biased sex ratios which will impair seed production. Ignoring this feedback underestimates range shifts. www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

Florida citrus lands offer hope for habitat recovery
Florida citrus production has been in decline due to widespread citrus greening disease introduced as early as 2004, also known as Huanglongbing (HLB). But is there some lemonade to be

To understand how climate change affects natural ecosystems we need to know how warming influences species interactions. In our newest paper we show that predator-prey interactions fundamentally change across latitude leading to context dependent effects of warming. 🧪

My dissertation chapter is in Ecology Letters!
We tested microbiome network theory empirically in nature and found central early colonisers significantly (1) enhanced biodiversity, (2) reshaped assembly trajectories and (3) increased recruitment of non-peripheral microbes.

Central Taxa Are Keystone Microbes During Early Succession
For decades, microbiome network theory has predicted that highly connected ‘hub’ taxa act as keystone species that disproportionately affect their communities. However, this has never been empiricall...
