Observing the invisible: X‐ray CT for plant–microbe interactions

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 3, Page 959-966, August 2026.
Utility of X‐ray computed tomography (X‐ray CT) for visualising belowground plant interactions between multiple spatial scales and focal planes. Summary Plant–microbe interactions are inherently spatial, yet the physical structure of the soil and rhizosphere is rarely treated as a mechanistic variable in experimental design.

Fine‐root trait variation in temperate trees follows arc‐shape pattern along deep soil profiles

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 3, Page 1101-1115, August 2026.
Root trait variation along the soil depth profile in four temperate tree species. Summary Roots are plants' interface with the soil, controlling access to water and nutrients. Yet, fine‐root trait variation along deep soil profiles and its functional implications remain poorly understood.

CNGCs in Marchantia paleacea uncouple arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis and rhizoid development

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 4, Page 2027-2040, August 2026.
Rhizoid growth and AM fungal infection are uncoupled. Summary In Marchantia paleacea, MpaDMI1‐dependent nuclear Ca2+ oscillations are essential for arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungal colonisation, indicating that endosymbiosis‐mediated nuclear Ca2+ signalling is a conserved feature of land plant–AM symbiosis.

Conserved symbiosis‐associated genes in the cycad Encephalartos natalensis suggest co‐option for cyanobacterial symbiosis

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 4, Page 2168-2185, August 2026.
The heterocyst‐rich Encephalartos natalensis cyanobacterial zone in coralloid root suggests co‐option of conserved symbiosis‐associated genes. This figure was created in BioRender (BioRender.com/https://BioRender.com/n3qveqc). Summary Plant‐cyanobacterial symbioses have evolved independently at least four times across land plants, yet their underlying ...

Global distribution and biogeography of ericoid mycorrhizal fungi

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 4, Page 2135-2151, August 2026.
Global predictions of local ericoid mycorrhizal fungal richness, its latitudinal trends and environmental predictors. Summary Ericoid mycorrhizal (ErM) fungi play a crucial role across terrestrial ecosystems, forming mutualistic symbiosis with Ericaceae and contributing to soil organic matter dynamics.
