Positive interactions between an exotic invader and moss biocrusts vary across life stage and correspond with the effect of water pulses on soil nitrogen by Slate, Mandy L., McLeod, Morgan Luce, Callaway, Ragan M.

“…The size and frequency of resource pulses can affect plant interactions and increase the abundance of invasive species relative to native species. We examined…”

A rapid, quantitative, and affordable fluorometric method to determine the viability of roots with potential application in fungal hyphae by McLeod, Morgan Luce, Rummel, Alexii, Lekberg, Ylva

“…Existing root viability methods tend to be time consuming, finicky, and sometimes subjective. Plate reader assays are rapid but often limited to homogeneous…”
