This week (11-17 May) sees the 36th annual New Zealand Fungal Foray taking place in the forests near Urenui, Taranaki. Staff at Manaaki Whenua began the Fungal Forays back in 1986 and have forayed across different regions in the country almost every year since then.

Last week, we asked you to guess, based on a series of microscopy images, what samples were successfully sliced using our 7000smz-2 vibratome.
The answer? Plant roots (more specifically eucalypt root) — to investigate fungal colonisation. Did you guess correctly? 🌱

They highlight the highly complex relationship between plants and fungi. Studying the relationship is possible due to the development of effective methods for visualisation and measurement.

From asphalt to microscope: the spores from Pisolithus have cute little spiny ornamentations that assist with survival and dispersal 🦔

We're breaking new ground with a brand new vibratome application note — a sample type we don't usually discuss.
Can you guess what sample has been sectioned from these fluorescent microscopy images?

Under the microscope: a cross-section of a eucalypt root colonised by Pisolithus microcarpus 🍄. The fungal nutrient exchange network is clearly visible as it wraps around the outside of the root and in between the root cells 🫚
