Because mycorrhiza is in your heart Toby!! keep up with the awesome research!!

あなたが目にしているその根は、根ではなく菌根である可能性が高いのです。

And picking out homokaryotic spores over dikaryotic 😅😅😅

I see them in cultures all the time, pretty fun to watch swimming around

Paper published...a small contribution to AMF systematics synonymizing two species with Rhizophagus clarus, in collaboration with Jim Bever (

Happy New Year for you and all INVAM's crew!!! Cheers.

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

After mounting and observing spores of 27 AMF species in four days, participants of the taxonomy workshop deserved good beer and some typical german food from Blumenau. I am very happy for this 10th edition of the workshop, it is four days with good discussion about AMF taxonomy and biology.

Second day of the X Workshop on Taxonomy of Glomeromycota and we already discussed the spore development model, observed 10 spp. in Gigasporaceae, discussed methods to grow these fungi and visited facilities of CICG. We are ready to dive in Acaulosporaceae and Entrophosporaceae tomorrow!!

Lab is all set and organized to receive students, technicians and researchers from Brazil, Chile, Venezuela, Colombia, Argentina and Peru to attend the X Workshop on Taxonomy of Glomeromycota. Four days learning about AMF spore morphology, spore wall, germinal walls, and how to grow them. Excited!!

One of my favorite group of invertebrates!!

I’m also looking for a PhD student to investigate crop-mycorrhizal interactions, more info about the project and application process here: www.findaphd.com/phds/project...

The IMS needs your help! See ad below

We are studying AMF traits of families in Glomeromycota. Spoiler from an experiment investigating the effect of soil pH on sporulation, mycorrhizal colonization and external hyphae production, part of the Master's thesis of Lidia Laurindo with collaboration of @1pantunes.bsky.social

Hi, thanks for starting this pack, could you include me? Cheers

Hi Matthias, I would appreciate if you could sign me in for this group. I am not a hard core ecologist but I certainly like the subject! Cheers

I just joined Bsky, nice to see mycorrhizal people here
