Hey there, does anybody know what, if any, is the most widely accepted urbanization index out there? I want to compore different cities in their level of urbanization and a starting point would help a lot!

This happens in all fields! Navigating migration offices when you have 'unusual' passports just becomes part of our life.

Dr Adam Frew from Western Sydney - HIE says that under high P availability, there's high competitive exclusion among mycorrhizae fungi, which can either increase or decrease fungi taxonomic diversity.

Well, hope to see you two as arbuscules. See you during the symbiotic phase!

Pipetting R. irregularis can be so relaxing!

Are Funneliformis mossease spores supposed to float in water?

1/6 For 30 years ecologists have been told that correlations between traits across species need to be corrected for phylogeny (usually via PGLS), because related species are not independent. Several half-truths in that ... besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/13… @Jecol Mark Westoby Barbara Holland

I am recruiting a PhD student to join my project linking fungal morphology to carbon cycling at University of Jyväskylä in Finland. Deadline is the 31st of July!

🍄Mycorrhizal fungi take on carbon equivalent to 36% of the world’s annual fossil fuel emissions!

Great work from Dr. Heidi Hawkins Toby Kiers Prof. Katie Field et al.

Pretty excited to announce that this fall I will start a new project linking mycelial morphology to function among saprotrophic fungi at University of Jyväskylä as a Research Fellow funded by Suomen Akatemia | Research Council of Finland. PhD annoucement soon. Working on beauties like this one:

🌱🍄 Mycorrhizal fungi are important for soil and plant health 🌿🌍 Surprisingly, we're still in the dark about the fungal communities in Australian agro-ecosystems! 🤔

That's why we're conducting a nationwide soil survey to identify and map these amazing fungi. 🧪🌾 We need…

Kiitos Suomen Akatemia | Research Council of Finland & University of Jyväskylä !!
