Representing Pecchia Lab from PSU at the #MushroomShortCourse! #PecchiaPower Penn State College of Agricultural Sciences psuPPEM Swathi Kothattil Eoin O'Connor

Excited to get stuck into this! A topic I still care so much about a long way from home! Eoghan Daltun 🌍 #rewilding

Happy to share my work with researchers and growers in PA and elsewhere at the #mushroomshortcourse (2022) alongside a bright team of young researchers. I discussed using #proteomics to study #microbiomes in mushroom production Penn State College of Agricultural Sciences psuPPEM Swathi Kothattil Isako Di Tomassi -account inactive as of 20JAN2025

Looks like the snow boots won't be coming out yet as anticipated. Still waiting for the cold of the US North-East

Enjoyed speaking with Finding Genius Podcast about the Devome project with Kevin Hockett @Buckhout_Bull John Pecchia Fabricio Vieira and Isako Di Tomassi -account inactive as of 20JAN2025 group covering #metaproteomics #microbiomes #microbiome #agaricus

This is the relatable content I needed this morning

Led by Celine Petersen & Kåre Nielsen (Ålborg Uni).

Ed Kaiser, our mushroom culture curator, did a great job representing psuPPEM at tonight's PSU Science Policy "Science on Tap". He talked about cool fungal technology (like fungal styrofoam!), the PA mushroom industry, and tons more. Plus, mushroom trivia!

Excited to see our first paper from the Devome project in Microbiology Spectrum. Here we select for developmental #microbiomes (devomes) by manipulating materials used in the cultivation of the button #mushroom @Buckhout_Bull Kevin Hockett One Health Microbiome Center journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/sp…

This article by Penn State scientists Isako Di Tomassi -account inactive as of 20JAN2025 Eoin O'Connor @Buckhout_Bull Kevin Hockett and others unveils an experimental breakthrough in compost and casing microbial communities for more sustainable mushroom cultivation. 🍃🍄 ASM journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/sp…

🍞Can microbes in sourdough starter be used to detoxify gluten in breads? Dr. Josephine Wee (Penn State) and Dr. Charlene Van Buiten 🐀 (Colorado State University) received a $500,000 USDA grant to investigate the potential of sourdough microbes to improve bread quality and safety. psu.edu/news/research/…

🍄 Join us this Friday @ 11 AM EST for a seminar led by Penn State's Dr. Eoin O'Connor (Eoin O'Connor) and Dr. Fabricio Vieira! We are excited to learn more about mushroom devomes and utilizing #HITS for mushroom development research. Can't make it? DM us for the zoom link!

New research by Eoin O'Connor and others reveals that substrate passaging (a technique including reused substrate) has a suppressive effect on blotch disease in button mushrooms, improving the overall healthy crop yield and development time! 🍄🧫 sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
