From trade‐off to synergy: microbial insights into enhancing plant growth and immunity

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 22, Issue 9, Page 2461-2471, September 2024.
Summary The reduction in crop yield caused by pathogens and pests presents a significant challenge to global food security. Genetic engineering, which aims to bolster plant defence mechanisms, emerges as a cost‐effective solution for disease control. However, this approach often incurs a growth penalty, known as the growth‐defence trade‐off.

Chermebilaenes A and B, New Bioactive Meroterpenoids from Co-Cultures of Marine-Derived Isolates of Penicillium bilaiae MA-267 and Penicillium chermesinum EN-480

open access: yesMarine Drugs, 2020
The co-cultivation of two or more different microbial strains in one culture vessel was supposed to be a viable experimental approach for enhancing the diversity of the compounds produced. Two new meroterpenoid derivatives, chermebilaenes A (1) and B (2),

Metaproteomic analysis of King Ghezo tomb wall (Abomey, Benin) confirms 19th century voodoo sacrifices

open access: yesPROTEOMICS, Volume 24, Issue 16, August 2024.
Abstract The palace of King Ghezo in Abomey, capital of the ancient kingdom of Dahomey (present‐day Benin), houses two sacred huts which are specific funerary structures. It is claimed that the binder in their walls is made of human blood. In the study presented here, we conceived an original strategy to analyze the proteins present on minute amounts ...

First Report of a Ceratobasidium sp. Causing Root Rot on Canola in Washington State

open access: yesPlant Disease, 2012
Rhizoctonia root rot occurs commonly on canola (Brassica napus L.) in Washington State. Recently, isolates of an additional pathogen were found to be involved in this disease complex. Isolates of an AG-I-like Ceratobasidium sp. were collected from roots and root zone soil in central Washington near Ritzville. Identity of selected isolates was verified

Nitrogen transport in the orchid mycorrhizal symbiosis - further evidence for a mutualistic association. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Mycorrhizas are symbioses integral to the health of plant-based ecosystems (Smith & Read, 2008). In a typical mycorrhizal association, fungi in, or on, plant roots pass soil-acquired inorganic nutrients and water to the plant host.
