Mini-grant for bark microbiome research

Peter Pellitier, Don Zak and Tim James has received a mini-grant, titled “Expanding the Plant Microbiome: Inner Bark Endophytes and Plant Resistance to Emerald Ash Boring Beetles”, from the Integrated Training in Microbial Systems (ITiMS). This mini-grant for $10,000 will go towards research for sampling and studying the bark microbiome in forests in order to better understand the role that bark endophyte communities play for tree and forest health. Congrats to Peter, Don and Tim!
