Here's 123 new bryophyte genomes for you! Apparently, bryophytes time and again include microbial genes in their genomic repertoire, and occupy a langer gene space than vascular plants. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Morgen (am 25.9.25) erscheint mein Buch "Mutter Erde", geschrieben gemeinsam mit dem Wissenschaftsjournalisten Jörg Blech. Im Buch schildere ich auch den wissenschaftlichen Prozess der Erforschung des Bodens und seiner Ökologie.

"Moss meets laser on a mountain" may sound like cheap clickbait, but is actually the topic of my recent paper in @journalofecology.bsky.social Thanks a lot for the shout-out!

Thanks for setting up this platform, Ingolf and colleagues. Exciting times ahead for glacier forefield research :)

Ok, hear me out, here's the plan:

I’m very happy to share our new paper “Intensive feeding modifies nutrient patterns in a strictly protected area” (doi.org/10.1016/j.je...), just out in Journal of Environmental Management. We explore underestimated consequences of a common management practice: supplementary feeding of deer. (1/5)

I don’t know who needs this right now, but I really enjoy browsing “Paper Skygest”, a feed of posts on academic papers *from people you follow*. I think it’s what a lot of us are actually here for

Anyway, some good, some bad, and I was provoked to think - which is what I want in an article!
