Small, fascinating, and beautiful, fungi are essential components of #biodiversity, just like animals and plants. ❤️🍄🌎 Explore the fungal tree of life and find out how many fungi you can identify. Via @laszlognagy group.szbk.u-szeged.hu/sysbiol/nagy-l…
Props to Emily A. Holt, Isaiah Jonas and Mariah Stechelin for bringing light to gender inequity in lichenology: bioone.org/journals/the-b… #lichens
Seeking a quarter or half-time mycology faculty to co-teach our new mycology certificate @EvergreenStCol. I can tell you from experience that our students are amazing and teaching at Evergreen is a dream job! Please retweet: evergreen.peopleadmin.com/postings/3534 #mycology #fungi #mushrooms
In case you missed it: Women are less likely to be credited for their scientific contributions than men. It’s true across multiple fields & at all stages, with important repercussions for career progress. #WomenInSTEM #WomenInMedicine #MedTwitter nature.com/articles/s4158…
@CarriLeRoy @NSF @POTUS @WHOSTP @EvergreenStCol Go Carri!!
Excited to share our latest paper on comparative genomics of lichen fungal symbionts out today in @NatureComms. TLDR: unexpectedly, lichen fungi contain a Swiss Army knife of genes involved in degrading complex carbohydrates. nature.com/articles/s4146… A🧵1/14
Our PNAS paper on the evolution of the deadly toxin, amanitin, in mushrooms is behind a paywall. Thus, you will find below a summary of the main findings … 📸 The Death Cap (Amanita phalloides) pnas.org/doi/abs/10.107…
@bdproctor Also, it looks like a morel to me but you can compare Verpas to Morels: learn.freshcap.com/tips/false-mor….
@bdproctor If you did, you would be a millionaire! As far as I know they are not cultivatable (accept maybe some folks working on top secret patented methods). Morels commonly come up in the spring in fresh (1-2yr old) wood chip mulch. Check out around Purce Hall to see what I mean!
This is the most important work of my career & why I'm hopeful for the future Southern mtn caribou are endangered & could be lost in our generation. Not accepting that fate, 2 First Nations began an ambitious recovery effort & did the impossible Thread👇 esajournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ea…

Happy birthday to educator, activist, and artist Sarah Mapps Douglass, born #onthisday in 1806! Douglass was a founding member of the Philadelphia Female Anti-Slavery Association & a skilled botanical artist. Her paintings are the earliest surviving work signed by a Black woman.

“At this dystopian moment, I'm just not feeling it, and I don't think I'm alone. I have many friends and colleagues who study extreme weather, in academia, government and the private sector. I think I can speak for many of us when I say we're stunned.” cnn.com/2021/09/02/opi…
Where I slept in Antarctica. The view from my tent in the Dry Valleys, next to the glacier I hiked up in search of tardigrades embedded inside it. There was a rare light snowstorm when I filmed this; in the largest area of Antarctica not covered in snow/ice. @NSF @InsideNatGeo
We made the cover of the latest @Botanical_ American Journal of Botany issue! Great photo of male catkins by @cornellwillow to showcase the study of sexual dimorphism in Salix. bsapubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/aj…
Although they're one of the most under-noticed parts of the landscape, Oak Spring wouldn't be nearly as beautiful without lichens. During our recent #BioBlitz, visiting lichenologists found 70 lichen species on the property!
September is #NationalMushroomMonth! To celebrate, here are some illustrations from our favorite fungi artist, Anna Maria Hussey. Defying Victorian-era conventions for women, Hussey depicted fungi - along with the dirt and insects in their habitat - with care and accuracy.🍄
