Do you know about mycelium networks? 🪴 ⠀ The underground network of fungi -- called the mycelium -- connects to the plants and trees in a forest. This line of connection allows for communication and nutrient exchange among all of the organisms. ⠀ That's why the mycelium is often called the "Wood Wide Web." 🌳 ⠀ What fun mushroom facts can you share?

Nature shows what it takes to work in teams. Yet, why are human systems so challenging? From bees pollinating flowers to trees sharing nutrients through underground fungal networks, cooperation is everywhere! This harmony in nature inspires us to work together, beyond ourselves, to pool our strengths and skills for not only greater impact but increased efficiency. Let's channel nature's collaborative spirit to create exponential reframings of our fractured world!

🍄Fascinating Fungi Facts! The Invisible Network🍄 Mushrooms that people know will pop up ("fruit") above ground. They're often seen after rain and deploy spores to reproduce. Other mushrooms, like truffles, fruit beneath the soil. They rely on animals to dig them up and spread their spores. Finally, many fungi live their life building mycelium in an invisible network, growing with other organisms underground. Each type plays a role in nature's design. #TrufflePig #Mycelium #MushroomGrowing mycelerator.com

Happy #FAQ Friday! Check out our latest on #microbial activity - answer below: A: Because BiOWiSH® organisms are strongly root associated, they are expected to remain viable and active in the rhizosphere throughout the life of the plant. It should be noted that BiOWiSH® microbes are not intended to populate the bulk soil with BiOWiSH® Bacillus; rather, they partner with their host plant’s rhizosphere to augment the hologenome of the plant-microbe partnership.

Mode of Action Spotlight: Competitive Exclusion Competitive exclusion occurs when organisms compete for resources in the same ecological niche, limiting the resources available. Ultimately, the better-adapted organism will win. This is the case for Trichoderma harzianum strain T22. This effect is not limited to the petri dish. When applied to seeds, transplants, soil mixes, or other propagative material, T22 grows onto plant roots as they develop, protecting them for several weeks. This protection hinders the growth and development of pathogenic organisms including Fusarium, Pythium, Rhizoctonia, Phytophthora, Cylindrocladium, and Thielaviopsis. #Bioworks #biocontrol #trichoderma #modeofaction #Fusarium #soil #roothealth

Discover the fascinating journey of tannins under the microscope. Vegetable extracts and members of the polyphenol family, tannins are not just chemical compounds; they are a bridge between different species and kingdoms, acting as messengers of the plant world. These polyphenols boast unique properties, such as their role in stabilising animal proteins, modulating microbiota and reducing GHG emissions in the atmosphere. Learn more about the unparalleled benefits of tannins for plants, animals and humans, and how they contribute to protecting our forest heritage and promoting economic development in rural areas. Let’s appreciate the virtues of tannin together! Read the full article "Tannin under the microscope" here: https://lnkd.in/gtdY-bP #Tannins #Sustainability #Innovation #Science

mycorrhizal fungi have many branching threads (called mycelium) that grow out from the root tip of a tree and connect with the roots of other trees and plants to form a mycorrhizal network. The mycelium spans vast areas connecting trees and plants across a forest in an expansive underground network.

Beneath the Earth's surface lies a bustling world of microscopic life. In just one teaspoon of soil, there are more microbes than there are people on Earth. These tiny organisms, including bacteria, fungi, and protozoa, play crucial roles in the ecosystem, such as nutrient cycling and supporting plant growth. Despite their small size, these microbes form complex communities that sustain life aboveground, emphasizing the interconnectedness of ecosystems and the importance of preserving soil health. #biology #didyouknow #funfact #microbiallife #soil #microbes #hiddenworld #ecosystem #microscopic #biodiversity
