Effective Rhizobia Relieve Negative Effects of Drought Stress During the Vegetative Stage in Soybean Under Field Conditions

open access: yesJournal of Agronomy and Crop Science, Volume 211, Issue 4, July 2025.
ABSTRACT Soybean (Glycine max L.) forms a symbiotic relationship with compatible soil rhizobia, enabling biological nitrogen fixation. Among numerous factors, moisture deficit is a major challenge to soybean production due to its direct impact on the ability to fix nitrogen.

Experimental Drought Suppresses Amphibian Pathogen Yet Intensifies Transmission and Disrupts Protective Skin Microbiome

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 31, Issue 6, June 2025.
This study used ecologically realistic enclosures with pumpkin toadlets to simulate short‐term drought conditions in Brazil's Atlantic Forest. Drought reduced the overall levels of a harmful amphibian fungus, but it also disrupted their protective skin‐associated bacteria and caused the toadlets to cluster in wet areas of the enclosures, which ...

Evening complex component ELF3 interacts with LUX proteins to repress soybean root nodulation

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 23, Issue 6, Page 2194-2206, June 2025.
Summary Formation of root nodules is a unique hallmark of the symbiotic interaction between legume host plants and rhizobia and is governed by a complex regulatory framework that balances the appropriate orchestration of rhizobial infection and subsequent nodule organogenesis. In contrast to prominent model species such as Medicago truncatula and Lotus

Harnessing eDNA Metabarcoding to Monitor Species Diversity in Restoration Sites: Insights From Laikipia, Kenya

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 3, May–June 2025.
The restoration of terrestrial ecosystems in Arid and Semi‐arid Lands (ASALs) has gained momentum through initiatives like the Bonn Challenge and Kenya's Forest and Landscape Restoration Implementation Plan (FOLAREP). This study piloted soil environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding to assess biodiversity in restored areas of Lower Naibunga Community ...

Cyclic β-glucans at the bacteria–host cells interphase: One sugar ring to rule them all [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Cyclic β‐1,2‐D‐glucans (CβG) are natural bionanopolymers present in the periplasmic space of many Proteobacteria. These molecules are sugar rings made of 17 to 25 D‐glucose units linked exclusively by β‐1,2‐glycosidic bonds.

Agronomic Performances of Faba Bean (Vicia faba L.) Varieties to Rhizobial Inoculation, Biochar and Lime Applications Under Acidic Soil Conditions in Ethiopia

open access: yesFood and Energy Security, Volume 14, Issue 3, May/June 2025.
ABSTRACT Soil acidity influences nutrient availability and plant growth performances in Ethiopian highlands. Sustainable agronomic practices like bio‐organic amendments are getting attention to address such problems. This study was, therefore, conducted to evaluate the effects of various bio‐organic amendments on the grain yield and yield components of

Role of the irr protein in the regulation of iron metabolism in Rhodobacter sphaeroides [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
In Rhizobia the Irr protein is an important regulator for iron-dependent gene expression. We studied the role of the Irr homolog RSP_3179 in the photosynthetic alpha-proteobacterium Rhodobacter sphaeroides.

Analysis of nifH-RNA reveals phylotypes related to Geobacter and Cyanobacteria as important functional components of the N2-fixing community depending on depth and agricultural use of soil [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In this survey, a total of 80 787 reads and 28 171 unique NifH protein sequences were retrieved from soil RNA. This dataset extends our knowledge about the structure and diversity of the functional diazotrophic communities in agricultural soils from ...

Oligotyping reveals stronger relationship of organic soil bacterial community structure with N-amendments and soil chemistry in comparison to that of mineral soil at Harvard Forest, MA, USA [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The impact of chronic nitrogen amendments on bacterial communities was evaluated at Harvard Forest, Petersham, MA, USA. Thirty soil samples (3 treatments × 2 soil horizons × 5 subplots) were collected in 2009 from untreated (control), low nitrogen ...
