Congratulations to our Phd student Kristin Hauschild to her first-author-paper no.3 🥳 Here we tested whether different soil amendment strategies (catch crops, microbial inoculants) can improve apple plant performance in replant disease-affected soil. academic.oup.com/femsec/artic...

Unfortunately I can't attend #Rhizosphere6 conference this time. But my colleagues are there with exciting new results from our lab 👇🏻

Wonderful surprise on a Sunday morning. Big thank you to @phytobiomesjournal.bsky.social for selecting our publication as Editor's pick!

New publication out describing data collection since 2004 in a Central Germany field trial with contrasting tillage and fertilization. Data comprises soil nutrients, microbiome, plant gene expression, yield @doreenbabin.bsky.social @[email protected] doi.org/10.1038/s415...

What a pleasure presenting the final results of a two years inoculation field experiment at IOBC-WPRS Biocontrol meeting in Turin today - sampling&analysis was a lot of work, but with many great people and the results paid off. The study will soon be published (proof loading). Stay tuned 😉

Inoculation with a microbial consortium mitigates early drought in maize under field conditions. Finally published: rdcu.be/eo0iU Great collaboration within the DiControl project of @jonkampouris.bsky.social @doreenbabin.bsky.social @igzleibniz.bsky.social @jki-research.bsky.social and many more

Full of ideas after a productive retreat with @jki-research.bsky.social EP colleagues in the idyllic place Dresden-Pillnitz. Thanks to JKI-ZO colleagues for hosting us! @drhheuer.bsky.social

Recent publication from the lab. Great collaboration between @jki-research.bsky.social and INIA Uruguay

Teaser: inoculated wheat after wheat performs similarly good as wheat after rapeseed. If you want to know more, pass by at the poster session this afternoon 👇🏻

Final piece of our DFG project published. Great collaboration between JKI and TU Dresden @agmicro-lab.bsky.social @jhtzethof.bsky.social

This year I am presenting in #VAAM 2025 a piece of my work as a postdoc in @agmicro-lab.bsky.social led by @doreenbabin.bsky.social, with a focus on drought stress and interactions of inoculated plant-BMs with the resident rhizosphere microbiome.

Job alert: Are you interested in agroecology? We are looking for a 65%PhD student to work on weed-suppressive microbes in the frame of a European research consortium. More details and how to apply here: interamt.de/koop/app/ste... (english pdf announcement under "Anlagen")

Proud that our GFFA stand about the GER-URY bilateral project Micro2Health made it into the Uruguayan newspaper

First paper 2025 from our group fresh off the press: seed inoculation with beneficial microbes can attenuate drought stress during maize growth link.springer.com/article/10.1...

Bye bye X @DoreenBabin and hello bluesky!
