Prakash P, Jiang X, Richards L, Schofield Z, Schafer P, Polin M, et al.
J R Soc Interface . 2024 Oct; 21(219):20240574. PMID: 39471871
Many species of soil fungi grow in the form of branched networks that enable long-range communication and mass flow of nutrient. These networks play important roles in the soil ecosystem...

Richards L, Cremin K, Coates M, Vigor F, Schafer P, Soyer O
ISME J . 2024 Sep; 18(1). PMID: 39236233
Soil microbial communities host a large number of microbial species that support important ecological functions such as biogeochemical cycling and plant nutrition. The extent and stability of these functions are...

Giannakis K, Richards L, Dauda K, Johnston I
Mol Biol Evol . 2024 May; 41(6). PMID: 38758976
Mitochondria and plastids have both dramatically reduced their genomes since the endosymbiotic events that created them. The similarities and differences in the evolution of the two organelle genome types have...

Giannakis K, Richards L, Johnston I
Syst Biol . 2024 Mar; 73(2):419-433. PMID: 38459872
Comparative analysis of variables across phylogenetically linked observations can reveal mechanisms and insights in evolutionary biology. As the taxonomic breadth of the sample of interest increases, challenges of data sparsity,...

Lagunas B, Richards L, Sergaki C, Burgess J, Pardal A, Hussain R, et al.
Microbiome . 2023 Jul; 11(1):146. PMID: 37394496
Background: Despite the knowledge that the soil-plant-microbiome nexus is shaped by interactions amongst its members, very little is known about how individual symbioses regulate this shaping. Even less is known...

Giannakis K, Arrowsmith S, Richards L, Gasparini S, Chustecki J, Royrvik E, et al.
Cell Syst . 2022 Sep; 13(11):874-884.e5. PMID: 36115336
Mitochondria and plastids power complex life. Why some genes and not others are retained in their organelle DNA (oDNA) genomes remains a debated question. Here, we attempt to identify the...

Achom M, Roy P, Lagunas B, Picot E, Richards L, Bonyadi-Pour R, et al.
J Exp Bot . 2021 Dec; 73(7):2142-2156. PMID: 34850882
Legumes house nitrogen-fixing endosymbiotic rhizobia in specialized polyploid cells within root nodules, which undergo tightly regulated metabolic activity. By carrying out expression analysis of transcripts over time in Medicago truncatula...

Eichmann R, Richards L, Schafer P
Plant J . 2020 Dec; 105(2):518-541. PMID: 33332645
The interaction of plants with complex microbial communities is the result of co-evolution over millions of years and contributed to plant transition and adaptation to land. The ability of plants...

Richards L, Jarrold A, Bowser T, Stevens G, Gras S
J Ind Microbiol Biotechnol . 2020 Jun; 47(6-7):449-464. PMID: 32507955
Cytochrome P450 enzymes catalyse reactions of significant industrial interest but are underutilised in large-scale bioprocesses due to enzyme stability, cofactor requirements and the poor aqueous solubility and microbial toxicity of...

Li X, Krysiak-Baltyn K, Richards L, Jarrold A, Stevens G, Bowser T, et al.
ACS Omega . 2020 May; 5(16):9339-9347. PMID: 32363285
An enzymatic biosynthesis approach is described for codeine, the most widely used medicinal opiate, providing a more environmentally sustainable alternative to current chemical conversion, with yields and productivity compatible with...
