Congratulations to Elodie Muller for her successful PhD defense on The ecological dynamics of an invasive pathogen: Cryptostroma corticale on sycamore maple. It's been a pleasure to supervise this work! @umr-iam.bsky.social and a big thanks to the jury members for the amazing discussions

¡New #preprint from the Lab! "Phytophthora root rot induces compositional and functional changes in avocado rhizosphere bacterial communities" 🥑🦠🧬 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

The latent presence of Cryptostroma corticale (causal agent of the sooty bark disease) is widespread among French sycamore maple populations. Host density and water deficit seem to drive the silent spread of the pathogen. See our paper: doi.org/10.1111/ppa.... @umr-iam.bsky.social

An invited commentary I wrote for @funecology.bsky.social on a new study using using spatial patterns, traits, environmental preferences, and colonization dynamics to better understand how ecological communities form and respond to change. 🧪🌎🌐 besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

Can plant biodiversity predict underground fungal diversity? New study published in Nature Communications finds only 8.8% of arbuscular mycorrhizal and 1.5% of ectomycorrhizal fungal diversity hotspots overlap with plant hotspots. Link to paper: www.nature.com/articles/s41... 🧵

#Fungi are often classed according to their feeding habits as either feeding on decaying material, like wood, or living in mycorrhizal association with plants. Francis Martin and Hao Tan reveal that we need to think about this dichotomy as a continuum. www.cell.com/current-biol...
