The role of endophytes to combat abiotic stress in plants

Plant Stress
Climatic changes and global warming produce abiotic stressors that affect plant development and productivity. Abiotic stressors, such as drought, salt, cold, and heat, significantly impair global agricultural crop yields.

Reprogramming of Gene Transcripts and Metabolites by the Wild Soybean Endophyte Pseudomonas sp. 77S3 Improves Soybean Salt Tolerance

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soybean is a critical source of protein and vegetable oil worldwide. Expanding its cultivation into salinity lands represents a promising strategy for increasing production; however, soil salinity severely limits soybean growth by disrupting physiological and metabolic homeostasis.

Fungicides and the grapevine wood mycobiome: a case study on Tracheomycotic Ascomycete Phaemoniella chlamydospora reveals potential for two novel control strategies [PDF]

, 2019
Original ResearchPhaeomoniella chlamydospora is a tracheomycotic fungus that colonizes the xylem of grapevines (Vitis vinifera L.), causing wood discoloration, brown wood streaking, gummosis, and wood necrosis, which negatively affect the overall ...

Non‐Additive Interactions Between Multiple Mutualists and Host Plant Genotype Simultaneously Promote Increased Plant Growth and Pathogen Defence

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding the impact of microbial interactions on plants is critical for maintaining healthy native ecosystems and sustainable agricultural practices. Despite the reality that genetically distinct plants host multiple microbes of large effect in the field, it remains unclear the extent to which host genotypes modulate non‐additive ...

The unseen world: environmental microbial sequencing and identification methods for ecologists [PDF]

, 2014
Archaea, bacteria, microeukaryotes, and the viruses that infect them (collectively “microorganisms”) are foundational components of all ecosystems, inhabiting almost every imaginable environment and comprising the majority of the planet’s organismal and ...

The role of bacteria in pine wilt disease: insights from microbiome analysis. [PDF]

, 2018
Pine Wilt Disease (PWD) has a significant impact on Eurasia pine forests. The microbiome of the nematode (the primary cause of the disease), its insect vector, and the host tree may be relevant for the disease mechanism.

Phyllosphere Keystone Beneficial Specialists Enhance Yield in Nutrient Deficiency‐Resistant Sorghum Cultivars

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The phyllosphere, the aboveground interface between plant leaves and their microbial residents, plays a vital yet underappreciated role in crop productivity. While root‐ and soil‐associated microbiomes are well‐studied, the ecological assembly and yield‐related effects of host‐mediated phyllosphere microbial communities remain largely ...

Synergistic activity of endophytic phytobiome enhances stress tolerance and secondary metabolite production in plants

Plant Stress
Endophytes are asymptomatic, mutually beneficial microorganisms that acquire nutrients and habitat from the host plants while enhancing secondary metabolite production and improving stress tolerance. Under stress conditions, the plants’ physiological and

Field‐grown coastal dune plants exhibit similar survival, growth, and biomass in recycled glass substrate and natural beach sand

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Restoration of coastal dunes following tropical storm events often requires renourishment of sand substrate dredged from offshore sources, although dredging has well‐described negative ecological impacts and high economic costs. As a potential solution, recycled glass sand (cullet) made from crushed glass bottles has been proposed as a potential ...
