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

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 3, Page 1438-1452, May 2026.
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 ...

Mikroorganismen an Aesculus hippocastanum – olfaktorische Perspektive von Cameraria ohridella (Deschka & Dimic) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Since the 80s, the popular park- and city tree Aesculus hippocastanum has been infested with the leaf miner Cameraria ohridella (DESCHKA & DIMIC 1986). Additionally, the pathogenic fungi Guignardia aesculi causes leaf blotch disease and Erysiphe flexuosa

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

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 5, Page 2480-2493, May 2026.
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 ...

Clearing the Noise: Seasonal Dynamics of Endophytic Bacteria in Fagus sylvatica Leaves Revealed by Application of PNA Clamps

open access: yesPhysiologia Plantarum, Volume 178, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT The characterization of the seasonal dynamics of endophytic bacteria in beech leaves can be hindered by co‐amplification of chloroplast and mitochondrial plant DNA. This study applies established peptide nucleic acid (PNA) clamps to suppress host‐derived amplification while resolving bacterial succession across the vegetative season ...

Endophytic Biostimulant Pyrroloquinoline Quinone Enhances Banana Growth and Primes Immunity Against Fusarium Wilt

open access: yesPhysiologia Plantarum, Volume 178, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT Pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) is a redox cofactor derived from prokaryotes that participates in various biological processes involving dehydrogenase enzymes. Previous field trials identified a PQQ‐producing endophyte, Burkholderia seminalis 869T2, which enhances banana growth and reduces Fusarium wilt incidence from 24.5% to 3.4%.

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 ...

Fungal Pathogen Activity and Stress‐Dependent Responses of Grapevine Wood to Esca and Drought

open access: yesPhysiologia Plantarum, Volume 178, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT Biotic and abiotic stresses alter the physiology of perennial plants, with consequences for fungal endophytes and disease expression. In grapevine, drought inhibits esca disease expression, but the underlying molecular interactions between the plant and fungi are unknown. We combined wood metatranscriptomics, metabolomics, and metabarcoding to

Development of a multigenic metabarcoding of prokaryotic microbiota: application to Bacteria and Archaea of agronomical interest encountered in the rice rhizosphere of Camargue [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
It is our hypothesis that soil and plant microbiota are playing an eminent role in shaping both natural ecosystems and agricultural production systems. It is now widely admitted that bacterial communities show a great diversity in the rhizosphere and in ...

Dual mutualistic associations in sainfoin (Onobrychis viciifolia Scop.) : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Agricultural Science in Agronomy at Massey University [PDF]

open access: yes, 1982
Recent studies established that many legumes, when infected with the appropriate Rhizobium spp. and arbuscular fungi, nodulated better and exhibited greater dinitrogen fixation than plants infected with only the rhizobia.

Improved Draft Genome Sequence of Microbacterium sp. Strain LKL04, a Bacterial Endophyte Associated with Switchgrass Plants. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
We report here the genome assembly and analysis of Microbacterium strain sp. LKL04, a Gram-positive bacterial endophyte isolated from switchgrass plants (Panicum virgatum) grown on a reclaimed coal-mining site.
