How climate shapes soil fungal traits Many soil microbes play a vital role in ecosystems, as they help plants access nutrients and water and assist in stress tolerance such as during drought and to defend against pathogens. One such group...

Our new global study led by @smriti-pehim-limbu.bsky.social is now out in @pnas.org. TLDR: Certain spore traits were linked to climate AND species range sizes! YES we can use traits to gain insight into env adaptations for microbes.

Preferential nitrogen and carbon exchange dynamics in Mucoromycotina “fine root endophyte”-plant symbiosis Mucoromycotina “fine root endophyte” (MFRE) fungi are an understudied group of plant symbionts that regularly co-occur with arbuscular mycorrhizal fun…

Hot off the press today in @currentbiology.bsky.social, our very latest on Mucoromycotina ‘fine root endophyte’ #mycorrhizas! led by Nathan Howard, we show N source preference and exogenous C metabolism by #MFRE: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... short 🧵
