Many people have invested time and effort in creating R and its packages, so it is essential to give them appropriate credit. To get the most up-to-date citation for R, you can use the citation() function. To cite a particular package, include its name in the (). Easy, right?

Metagenome-assembled genomes inform about carbohydrate utilization by microbes across habitats & the tree of life. CAZYmes are now reported from many new phyla. C utilization is phylogenetically conserved and made fit for the habitat of each microbe. journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/ms…

Mest van #insecten is niet alleen goed voor de bodem, maar het kan ook de schimmel bestrijden die #verwelkingziekte veroorzaakt. De mest stimuleert de groei van bacteriën die de #schimmel om zeep helpen, ontdekte promovendus Azkia Nurfikari. bit.ly/3ifqaAG Wageningen U&R

Congrats to the new doctor Azkia Nurfikari! Azkia just defended her thesis on using insect waste for sustainable crop production (including aspect to increase soil suppressiveness). NL Inst of Ecology

How to translate beautiful diversity experiments -and their functioning- into our cities? By getting used again to the looks of lush, untamed nature.E.g. plant decay and leaf damage are signs trophic diversity and ecosystem functioning! So explains Prof. Joshi OST – Ostschweizer Fachhochschule at #BES2022

Does biodiversity still matter for ecosystem functioning, when we look at an entire landscape? Yes, says Pete Manning, but we don't know the mechanisms yet. Michael Schrerer-Lorentzen points at looking into the impact of biodiversity on neighbouring ecosystems #BES2022

Having a downtime at #BES2022? I can hardly imagine. Curious about what saprotrophic fungi can do in arable soils, when activated? Then come check out our Online Talk via #Whova event app

#GSB2023 Super surprised and excited to get the poster prize by FEMS Soil Biodiversity I receive a lot of encouragement and have great connections. Such a fantastic conference!!! Same as our fantastic (GSB)group! Elly Morrien Prof. Franciska de Vries 🦠🍄🪱🌱🍂🌍 Fangbin Hou @MariGliesch Cynthia Albracht

I am so glad I got a travel support grant offered by Root Phenotyping Working Group of IPPN in Soil Biodiversity 2023 conference! So excited 😆

Fungal habitats within a forest are distinct, but share some community members: leaves have a legacy for litter, litter for soil and soil affects roots. The deadwood of various sizes hosts different fungi and contributes most to forest stand biodiversity. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Il presidente di Coldiretti Ettore Prandini riesce a scrivere almeno cinque inesattezze/falsità in 4 righe. La prima: l’importazione, se arriverà l’autorizzazione di Efsa e Ue, non potrà essere vietata per il principio di libera circolazione delle merci. La seconda: finché non

Anna Clocchiatti presents the SOILGUARD project. Fungi are restricted by soil degradation and tillage in arable fields. In these degraded soils restoration benefits mainly the fungal channel #BES2023. So organic practices work really well on degraded soils!

Come check out my poster showing the nice research going on in my group: 15.0 #BES2023 featuring work and thoughts of Julia Averkamp @NanZhang_0211 Steven de Goede Anna Clocchiatti @BorisJansenUvA & Emilia Hannula

Great talk by Estelle @estelle-ravel.bsky.social : the duration and changes over time of land management practices matters for delivering both yield and ecosystem services. But we need more long-term studies (>20 yr). Also cool methodology: metanalysis of 143 metanalyses #BES23

Exciting insights presented by Kathryn Hand: low-tech tools and citizen science work really well for collecting data about trees in cities - and makes people more aware of trees in the process 🌳 #BES23 #BES2023

Find out about us at the Food system microbiomes conference, Session 10: CIRCULAR FOOD SYSTEMS FOR MICROBIOMES IMPROVING ANIMAL, HUMAN AND ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH. Join Anna Clocchiatti from the Universiteit van Amsterdam at 3:30 PM tomorrow for the FSM conference in Turin. Her
