New paper out 😁. A collaboration with colleagues in India, Nepal, Poland and Japan reviewing how #plant -#microbe associations might be able to help plants deal with urban #pollution. Fascinating topic to be involved with.

If you are off to @NorwichSciFest today do pick up a copy or two of @ParameciumP books, 'Aggi and the Mystic Boots' and 'Blake's Small Adventure'. Both great books for keen #microbe hunters #protists #microbes #microbiology @NorfolkNats

How wild is this? An ancient microbe could be our grandparent to the nth degree:
WRITER FUEL: Ancient microbes whose existence predates the rise of nucleus-carrying cells on Earth may hold the secrets to how such complex cells first came to be.

A galaxy of colorful goo swirls around this petri dish! 😍
The goo is released by endophytic fungi, fungi that live with a plant and don’t cause disease. They are largely beneficial for the plant, enhancing the plant’s growth and nutrient gain. Both the plant and the microorganism benefit from their symbiotic relationship 💚
These fungi ooze out exudates, liquid reservoirs that contain enzymes and other products, to help their cells survive. They can then reabsorb this external cache when needed.

#Microbe filter feeders
This recent research explores how mesh feeding #zooplankton are able to feed directly on #prokaryotic #microorganiisms and suggests #Prochlorococcus (#Cyanobacteria) may be able to evade #predation.
