The research of MSI PI Linda Kinkel (professor, Plant Pathology) was featured on Minnesota Public Radio (MPR) recently. The story describes how microbes in the soil interact with each other and how that interaction can affect agriculture. It can be found on the MPR website: Microbes in the Crop Rows: Soil’s Secrets May Yield a New Ag Revolution.
Professor Kinkel and her group use MSI for genomic and transcriptomic studies of soil fungi and bacteria.
