Presentation

I lead a research group at SLU, currently focusing on:

Role of soil microbes in organic matter decomposition and nutrient cycling
Plant-mycorrhizal fungal interactions
Effects of management practices and land-use change on soil biodiversity and ecosystem functions
Biogeography of soil microbes
