Real-world results from the classroom 🌱🦠🌏 Students grew milkweed with/without MycoBloom fungal inoculant and found: “MycoBloom treated swamp milkweed sprouted sooner and is much taller!” — Lisa Ball, Environmental Club Sponsor, Lawrence High School #Mycorrhizae #Milkweed #STEMeducation

MycoBloom's work with native AMF for restoration is in the news @theguardian.com along with the research of @lizkoziol.bsky.social, @invam.bsky.social fungal collection, and others: www.theguardian.com/environment/...

My new paper is out! 🧪🦠 Seven years later: native AMF inoculation improves grassland restoration successional stage, floristic quality index, and diversity, while suppressing weeds: academic.oup.com/femsle/artic... Why microbes matter in restoration 🧵

We are hiring a full time lab technician to assist with several long-term richness/biodiversity/microbe/drought/restoration manupulation experiments at the KU field station. Applications due this week! Please share. Job Posting - Research Technician share.google/GsSTtiW4rIm5...

Mid-week #mycorrhiza 🍄 No rice this week: instead a beautiful arbuscule formed by native arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus (identity unknown) within a Plantago root. This animation takes you through a z-stack 🔬

Newly Submitted Manuscript: A vibrant forb-rich prairie restoration powered by native mycorrhizal fungal inoculants! Data from 7 years post-inoculation shows AM fungal amendments boost plot quality (Floristic Quality Index) and reduces weeds. #SoilHealth #nativeplants #Mycorrhizae #forbs 🍄🧪🌏🌾🌿

Our very own @lizkoziol.bsky.social will speak at the @thegsbi.bsky.social panel on microbial inoculants this Wednesday! 🦠🌎👩‍🔬

Join me Wednesday to talk soil inoculants—the good, the bad, and the dead on arrival. 🌱💀 #SoilScience

How resilient are AMF cultures? Gi. decipiens SCT711C and Paraglomus sp. SCT771G stored for 8 years at 4C still kicking and alive. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year for you all folks!! Cheers

Happy holidays y'all #mycosky 🦠

MycoBloom mycorrhizal inoculants: #AMF from old-growth prairies, crafted by a women-owned small business, 🌿 made in the USA, and 🌎 shipped only to the US and Canada. Boost your plants the natural way! 🍄 #HealthySoil #Mycorrhizae #RegenerativeAg #prairierestoration #growyourown

Many crops lose their reliance on #AMF during domestication, but we found a novel #perennial grain is becoming MORE responsive to AMF. Work by Tom McKenna, @lizkoziol Jared Crain @crews1859 Ben Sikes, Lee DeHaan and Jim Bever @NatureAsMeasure nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...
