Very delighted and honored to write this FEMS Microbio Rev with Chris Greening. This review focuses on termite-engineered microbial communities of termite nest structures. academic.oup.com/femsre/advance…

Sharing the final version of our review with @hongjieli1 at FEMS explaining how termites engineer microbes of their nests / mounds / fungal gardens. These communities benefit termites in multiple ways and are globally significant (e.g. CH4 cycling). academic.oup.com/femsre/advance…
