Are novel and co‐xenic associations common in alien fungal and fungus‐like plant pathogens?

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 252, Issue 2, Page 843-860, October 2026.
Possible scenarios for plant–pathogen associations during invasion. An introduced plant may occur in a new area without its pathogen (enemy release) or together with its pathogen (co‐introduction). The presence of the alien plant (in red) and its co‐introduced pathogen (in dark red) can result in pathogen spillover to co‐occurring plants. Host jumps to

Microbial endophytes: diversity, functions and host-endophyte interactions

open access: yes, 2018
This presentation outlines methods of detection of plant endophytes as well as functions of endophytic microbes (bacteria and fungi) in plants.  Functions include enhancing resistance of plants to biotic and abiotic stresses, modulating and increasing plant growth, deterring herbivory and increasing nutrient absorption in plants.

Effect of selenium hyperaccumulation on the root endophytic and rhizosphere microbiome of two Astragalus species

open access: yesPlant Biology, Volume 28, Issue 6, Page 1960-1972, October 2026.
Selenium hyperaccumulation has little impact on the overall microbiome diversity but rather affects interactions with key plant microbial mutualists, including rhizobia. Abstract Metal hyperaccumulation is prevalent throughout plant evolution, particularly in the legume family (Fabaceae), and acts as a presumed chemical defence against herbivory ...

Underground allies: Mycorrhizal flexibility facilitates orchid occurrence in post‐mining landscapes

open access: yesPlant Biology, Volume 28, Issue 6, Page 1899-1911, October 2026.
Epipactis helleborine associates with largely habitat‐specific fungal communities, with limited overlap between mining and woodland sites, yet maintains comparable genetic diversity across habitats. These results highlight the role of mycorrhizal flexibility in enabling habitat shifts and expanding ecological niches in human‐altered landscapes ...

Metagenomic Association Uncovers Host Genotype‐Structured Rhizobacterial Networks and Novel Taxa That Enhance Soybean Salt Tolerance

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 53, 24 September 2026.
An STI‐guided metagenomic association framework links soybean salt‐tolerance phenotypes with rhizosphere microbiome composition and network organization in natural saline soils. The approach identifies candidate beneficial taxa, including Thalassospira xiamenensis, and provides an efficient strategy for mining stress‐protective microbes from native ...

Endophytes in Cannabis sativa: Identifying and Characterizing Microbes with Beneficial and Detrimental Effects on Plant Health

open access: yesPlants
The roles of endophytes in Cannabis sativa (cannabis, hemp) remain poorly explored. While in vitro studies suggest that there can be several benefits, such as plant growth promotion and protection against pathogens, more in planta studies are needed ...

Forage mass, accumulation, and nutritive value of four perennial forages grown in a loblolly pine silvopasture in the Mid‐South United States

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Establishing forage in loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.) plantations has the potential to increase grazing acreage for cattle farms in the Mid‐South, but appropriate species selection still requires investigation. The objective was to evaluate forage mass, accumulation, and nutritive value of four perennial forage species, novel‐endophyte tall ...

Ecology, abiotic stress response and biotic interactions of fungal leaf endophytes from three Mediterranean plant species

open access: yes
reservedFungal leaf endophytes play a key role in boosting plant tolerance to abiotic stresses and enhancing plant resistance against diseases. Endophytes might become a pivotal tool to face climate change challenges in a sustainable way. In this thesis,

Soil Microbial Assembly Mirrors a Savanna Mosaic Amid Plant Invasion and Soil Disturbance

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
Grasslands and woody patches supported distinct soil and microbial assemblages, consistent with differences in vegetation inputs and nutrient regimes. Grasslands exhibited relatively simple assembly patterns, with plant diversity closely associated with soil nutrients and comparatively homogeneous microbial communities.
