This was a great effort to have a team of inspired and inspiring colleagues that is now taking steps to move soil macroecology forward. iDiv Biodiversity Research we will do our best to continue to foster these initiatives

Marcel vd Heijden @Agroscope shows some great results on how soil biodiversity and especially fungi/AMF improve soil functions in agricultural systems Rhizosphere 5 #Rhizo5

Great job indeed!

Congratulations

Exciting manuscript in Nature Communications on AMF and soil microbial communities. Synergies between mycorrhizal fungi and soil microbial communities increase plant nitrogen acquisition disq.us/t/3fvjjy8

I had an interesting chat with a colleague about the theory hold by some that to have a very productive lab everyone must work long hours and the PI should strictly control what everyone is doing. This is totally false and I will try to convince you in this thread of the opposite
