Show us your soil!

International Day for Biological Diversity is coming up, and we want to highlight Earth's most biodiverse habitat -- soil.

Send us a photo of the soil you love at the link below and we will feature it in our post!

How do ectomycorrhizal fungi alter soil food webs? Evidence from our multi-omics analysis suggests that they help suppress plant pathogens and enrich bacterial indicators of plant and fungal health. Read our recent EIC Jack Gilbert article to find out more: journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/ms….

Women scientists can face extreme hurdles balancing family with academic careers. This is especially challenging for field biologists.

Read the essay by Toby Kiers in The New York Times exploring how expeditions with kids can be an academic act of defiance.

Excited to share our new meta-analysis in New Phytologist 🥳. Spoiler: presence of mycorrhizal fungi was associated with a 6.7% increase in decomposition . Thanks Dr. Kathleen Treseder for your support!

Bravo to the Dutch who are starting a movement to protect underground ecosystems by removing pavement & tiles SPUN

The 'strange new sport' called 'tegelwippen' has municipalities competing to get rid of the most paved infrastructure
