We obtained 679 MAGs from our field surveys and monolith experiments, providing insights into microbial distribution under different land legacies and precipitation levels.

Recovery of 679 metagenome-assembled genomes from different soil depths along a precipitation gradient - Scientific Data Scientific Data - Recovery of 679 metagenome-assembled genomes from different soil depths along a precipitation gradient

Check out our paper here! www.nature.com/articles/s41... We hope our highly resolved soil-associated MAGs will be useful to the scientific community! #soil #microbiome

Interaction of plant-derived metabolites and rhizobiome functions enhances drought stress tolerance Background : Plants evolved alongside microbes, enabling plants to better cope with abiotic and biotic stresses. The interactions between plant roots and local soil microbes are critical for environme...

The 2nd project of my PhD work is now live! We showed strong associations of plant-derived metabolite trimethyllysine and rhizobiome functions, on mechanisms of rhizosphere recruitment and the microbial capacity to enhance host’s drought stress resilience. @sonnytmlee.bsky.social

So excited that my thesis first chapter is live in ASM's
#mSystems journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/... We use a bunch of techniques to show that gut microbial populations may be “stealing” valuable amino acids from the mice host, resulting in persistent gut inflammation! #PhDSky #MicroSky 🧪🦠🧫🧬
