episode 93: Udder industry is angry – Proximity proteomics, cactus trafficking, graphene confusion


Big udder won’t like this episode – not specifically because we said anything but mostly because they are a joyless bundle of cow farts. In this brand new and highly sought-after episode, we are discussing proximity proteomics, global earthworm abundance and the best way to water your plants.

  • Global data on earthworm abundance, biomass, diversity and corresponding environmental properties 
  • Joe Brown on Twitter: “Water your plants with … water. New findings from Ellie Brown, age 8. https://t.co/niRGFDtIOg“
  • Can algae contribute to the war with Covid-19? 
  • Global Cactus Traffickers Are Cleaning Out the Deserts (Thanks, Apple Chew Yen Peng)
  • This Unique Flower Smells Like Dead Insects to Attract And Trap Coffin Flies
  • Flowers respond to pollinator sound within minutes by increasing nectar sugar concentration
