 | Colorized SEM image of an R. catawbiense root cross-sec- tion with ericoid hyphal coils visible inside the epidermal cells, from a mesocosm inoculated with R. maximum (novel) soil, with roots colored brown and fungal hyphae colored green. By Taz Mueller (Biological Sciences ’18). |
 | SEM image of Halteria, a freshwater ciliate found in many fresh water ecosystems. Little jumpy movements are characteristic for Halteria, a strategy possibly evolved to defend itself against predators. |
