Customizable High-Throughput Chemical Phenotyping of Root Bacteria bio-protocol.org/en/bpdetail?...
We describe a flexible, scalable, robust, and affordable method for the chemical phenotyping of bacteria.
How plants modulate their growth in response to soil microbiomes is largely unknown. We established a system with Arabidopsis to investigate such microbiome feedbacks. Intriguingly, Arabidopsis responded with improved growth and enhanced defence to a maize-conditioned soil microbiome.
In this work led by *Charlotte Joller*, we established that a glass bead-based semi-hydroponic microcosm system enables the paralleled and time-resolved analysis of exudate and microbiome dynamics. Credits: @jan-waelchli.bsky.social, @nzamboni.bsky.social & Joelle Sasse Schlaepfer

Our first Kalanchoë laxiflora story found its perfect home @Science Advances with a beautiful cover image of Kalanchoë thyrsiflora leaves. I am grateful that I can continue working with this incredible new model to learn more about succulent development 🤩

We just released a curated, fully genome sequence isolate collection from Maize roots (ZeaMiC). It is publicly available as individual strains and cost effective bundles from the amazing @leibniz-dsmz.bsky.social culture collection

We hope to expand it in the future
