Using Fungal DNA Barcoding to Identify Fungal Species in a James River Park System Soil Microbiome
Fungi in the soil have the ability to form mutualistic relationships with plant roots and improve the way they resist a variety of plant diseases and abiotic stressors, influencing the survivability of the plants. The James River Park System (JRPS) is home to a variety of ecosystems that support diverse plant and fungal populations, including native plants and invasive plants. Therefore, it is important to identify what is present in the soil microbiome. The purpose of this project is to isolate fungal sequences from soil samples collected in the JRPS to identify what fungal species are present in the JRPS soil microbiome, aiding a larger, ongoing study exploring the relationships between soil microbial communities in areas where the invasive ivy is and is not present. Using DNA barcoding, several species of Ascomycetes, Basidiomycetes, and Zygomycetes were identified from soils in two areas of the JRPS, one where invasive ivy was removed and another where ivy was present. Ascomycete and Zygomycete fungi were identified in both soils, while Basidiomycete fungi were primarily identified from the soils in the English ivy-free area.https://scholarscompass.vcu.edu/uresposters/1487/thumbnail.jp
Homeplace as a Methodology of Care: Conducting Critical Qualitative Research with 2SLGBTQIA+ Youth in Higher Education
This paper addresses the alarming trend of policies and legislative actions targeting diversity, equity, inclusion, and affirmation/accessibility (DEIA) efforts in higher education, particularly those affecting 2SLGBTQIA+ youth. These policies not only pose a direct threat to the physical and psychological safety of marginalized students but also undermine the institutional support systems essential for their personal and academic development. Authored by a nonbinary undergraduate and two 2SLGBTQIA+ teacher education researchers, our paper explores student-led critical qualitative research as a countermeasure to these regressive policies. Building from bell hooks\u27 conception of homeplace, we offer our suggestions for establishing safe, supportive, and liberatory spaces for 2SLGBTQIA+ students in higher education through action research and methodologies of care
