The 2nd project of my PhD work is now live! We showed strong associations of plant-derived metabolite trimethyllysine and rhizobiome functions, on mechanisms of rhizosphere recruitment and the microbial capacity to enhance host’s drought stress resilience. @sonnytmlee.bsky.social shorturl.at/mivJs

Interaction of plant-derived metabolites and rhizobiome functions enhances drought stress tolerance
Background : Plants evolved alongside microbes, enabling plants to better cope with abiotic and biotic stresses. The interactions between plant roots and local soil microbes are critical for environme...

So excited that my thesis first chapter is live in ASM's #mSystems journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/... We use a bunch of techniques to show that gut microbial populations may be “stealing” valuable amino acids from the mice host, resulting in persistent gut inflammation! #PhDSky #MicroSky 🧪🦠🧫🧬

Inflammatory bowel disease is associated with an increase in Enterobacteriaceae and Enterococcus species; however, the specific mechanisms are unclear. Previous research has reported the associations ...
