Abstract: In aquatic ecosystems, microplastics are a relatively new anthropogenic substrate that can readily be colonized by biofilm-forming organisms. To examine the effects of substrate type on microbial community assembly, we exposed ambient Baltic bacterioplankton to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/1462-2920.16227
Abstract: Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi provide plants with vital mineral nutrients and co-exist inside the roots alongside a complex community of bacterial endophytes. These co-existing AMF and bacterial root communities have been studied individually and are known… read more here.
