2025 @Root2Res Faba shovelomics with the @PlantEcoHutton team has kicked off, we'll be taking some #rhizosphere soil and #roots back to our lab @Soilmicrobio for nutrient cycling and microbial community analysis 🫘 🧬 always great to work with this crew.

Our paper-
Size Matters: Influence of Available Soil Volume on the Root Architecture and Plant Response at Transcriptomic and Metabolomic Levels in Barley
is published in the June edition of Plant Cell Environment.

🎬 Check out our video!
Sampling #RootExudates and #RhizosphereSoil from the same plant is a significant challenge. In this video, we explain how to sample both efficiently, without damaging the plant's #RootSystem. 🌿✨

It was a pleasure to have Rahul Bhosale @RabhoRoot at the @JamesHuttonInst yesterday.
His talk about the regulation of the root angle in cereals at the @IntBarleyHub seminar series was very inspiring!

"There are databases around [Fred, Groot, Oak Ridge Laboratory, Try] but we need to try harder to standardize data" to be able to join forces, comments @LarryMattYork at #ISRR24 in Leipzig, referencing nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/…

@zheng_congcong (@Ibg2Root) shows nice reproducibility of results btw rhizorons (a.k.a rhizoboxes) and filed results 4 #rhizosphere pH changes at low P, by 2 #rice varieties. 0.5 pH change makes a great difference in P uptake in P deficient strongly p-sorbing acid soils. #ISRR12

Last day of #ISRR24 in Leipzig started with an inspiring keynote by @KSchlaeppi, bringing #soil, #microbiota and #plants together once more.

Klaus Schläppi @UniBasel_en presents his vision of #SustainableAgriculture via #microbiome diagnostics. A study of 81+ (?!) field sites showed that AMF success greatly depends on the conditions of interaction. Background microbiome (esp pathogens) has great influence. #ISRR12

It was an absolute pleasure to give a keynote at the #ISRR12 around our work in Wheat early vigour and metabolomics to improve crop competitiveness as an integrated pest management @LincolnUniNZ @CSIRO @CharlesSturtUni @peterry73452611 @rebetzke_0
