📣New paper 📣
We analysed papers on soil microbial diversity spanning 23 years in Southeast Asian tropical peatlands.
Most studies assessed soil bacterial communities using culture-based methods in agriculture.
Less info on unmodified peatlands - baseline?

Come join our @ibrc2025.bsky.social symposium on constructed habitats for bat conservation. This will cover a range of artificial structures used or designed specifically for bats. Presentations from the session will be compiled into case studies for a special issue. Abstract submission open now!

New research from CSAS PhD student @peteinnes.bsky.social has defined the vernalization requirements of the candidate perennial grain crops Mountain Rye and Intermediate Wheat Grass. This will help in identifying appropriate production regions for these novel crops. academic.oup.com/aobpla/artic...
A study of the vernalization requirements of mountain rye (Secale strictum syn. S. montanum) may help explain low grain yields of perennial cereals compared to wheat
Most cereal grains are annuals that need replanting each year. Perennial cereals are being developed that can be grazed and harvested for grain yearly but
