Engineering next‐generation crops through CRISPR‐mediated horizontal gene transfer

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Crops increasingly face overlapping stresses such as heat, drought, salinity, and pathogens that conventional breeding or genome editing rarely overcome in combination. To address this, we propose CRISPR‐enabled horizontal gene transfer (CRISPR‐HGT) as a programmable framework that recreates the evolutionary process by which plants historically

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and dark septate fungi in plants associated with aquatic environments

Acta Botânica Brasílica
There have been several reports of symbionts in the roots of plants that live in aquatic environments. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are the most common microsymbionts and possibly recolonized the aquatic environment together with plants; however ...

SOIL CHEMICAL PROPERTIES AND GROWTH OF SUNFLOWER (HELIANTHUS ANNUUS L.) AS AFFECTED BY THE APPLICATION OF ORGANIC FERTILIZERS AND INOCULATION WITH ARBUSCULAR MYCORRHIZAL FUNGI

Revista Brasileira de Ciência do Solo, 2015
The use of organic fertilizers and the inoculation of mycorrhizal fungi in the cultivation of oil crops is essential to reduce production costs and minimize negative impacts on natural resources.

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, Collembola and plant growth

Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 2000
Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi are ubiquitous in field soils, as are mycophagous animals such as Collembola. It has been suggested that these animals reduce the functioning of the mycorrhiza and are thus detrimental to plant growth. However, recent choice experiments suggest that Collembola preferentially feed on nonmycorrhizal fungi in the rhizosphere ...

Differences in mycelial turnover and persistence of wood‐decay fungi at the microscale

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary How long do fungal hyphae persist in the environment? And how does this differ between groups and species of fungi? Despite growing knowledge of fungal contributions to decomposition and soil carbon cycles, surprisingly little is known about the turnover of mycelia: What happens to fungal hyphae over time? And how this impacts different fungi's

Epigenetic regulation of mycorrhizal symbioses: from plastic responses to transgenerational legacies

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Mycorrhizal symbioses represent one of the most widespread and ecologically significant plant–microbe interactions, shaping plant nutrition, stress resilience, and ecosystem functioning. Beyond their role in nutrient exchange and systemic defense, growing evidence suggests that these symbioses also influence plant plasticity within and across ...

The root microlandscape of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi

New Phytologist
SummaryUnderstanding the drivers of assemblages of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) is essential to leverage the benefits of AMF for plant growth and health. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi are heterogeneously distributed in space even at small scale. We review the role of plant distribution in driving AMF assemblages (the passenger hypothesis), using a

Advancing Plant Microbiome Research Through Host DNA Depletion Techniques

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
The plant microbiome plays an essential role in promoting plant growth, enhancing stress tolerance and maintaining overall plant health. Metagenomic technologies have significantly expanded our ability to investigate plant–microbe interactions at high taxonomic and functional resolutions.
