Very neat agricultural microbiome research. There was legacy effect of potato plant vigor based on what production field it was grown in.
Microbial communities can harbor many species that do not coexist in pairs, yet can coexist in the full community. Here we provide the mathematical foundations of emergent coexistence, and explain why it can't be predicted from pairwise tests journals.plos.org/ploscompbiol...
Delighted to share my latest TED-Ed video, explaining how scientists discovered that cats use the chemicals from silvervine and catnip to protect themselves against mosquitoes. This discovery may open the way to the development of new mosquito repellents for human use.

Background Deep groundwaters populated by diverse and active microbes are among the most energy and nutrient-limited ecosystems. Characteristics of this ecosystem (including nutrient and dispersal lim...
This study finds that plant genotypes with high-quality symbioses from multiple microbial mutualists are larger/more robust and most likely to survive pathogen stress. This provides novel evidence th...

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.
Of the many bewildering behaviors cats display, one of the strangest is their obsession with a specific species of plant. After just one whiff, even the most stoic cat can start pawing, drooling, biti...

Re-analysis of over 92,000 metagenomes reveals hundreds of thousands of previously undescribed Bacterial and Archaeal clades hidden in plain sight.
Soil microbial ecology has been transformed by recent progress in sequencing and metagenomics, reshaping our understanding of soil microbial functions. This article examines how metagenomics can be us...

Cataloguing Earth's biodiversity remains one of the most formidable challenges in biology, and the greatest diversity is expected to reside among the smallest organisms: microbes. Yet the ongoing cens...
