Very honoured to be involved in this huge collaboration investigating global invasion in ☘️ by contributing fitness data from the transcontinental common garden experiment I completed during my PhD with @evoecolab.bsky.social! Well done to @brandonhendrickson.bsky.social and many many others!

Pedro Gundel: plant-fungi symbiosis and the impact of host fitness and vertical transmission efficiency In our new post Pedro Gundel, researcher at University of Talca (Chile) presents his work ‘Temporal host–symbiont dynamics in community contexts: Impact of host fitness and vertical transmission ef…

📰Behind the Paper!📰

🌱@pgundel.bsky.social shows how symbiotic species transmit between generations, discusses the complexity of ecological processes and shares the long path that paved the way to this work🛣️

Thank you for this wonderful opportunity! We studied the relative contribution of the #fitness of symbiotic and non-symbiotic individuals, as well as the #vertical_transmission efficiency, to the prevalence of #symbiosis between #Lolium multiflorum and the #endophytic_fungus #Epichloë occultans.

We published an article in @funecology.bsky.social (Functional Ecology) showing community dependent #plant-endophyte #symbiosis prevalence with #vertical_transmission playing a significant role!
