Toward a systems understanding of plant–microbe interactions [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2014
Plants are closely associated with microorganisms including pathogens and mutualists that influence plant fitness. Molecular genetic approaches have uncovered a number of signaling components from both plants and microbes and their mode of actions. However, signaling pathways are highly interconnected and influenced by diverse sets of environmental ...

Genome-resolved metatranscriptomics reveals conserved root colonization determinants in a synthetic microbiota

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
The identification of processes activated by specific microbes during microbiota colonization of plant roots has been hampered by technical constraints in metatranscriptomics.

Getting to the edge: protein dynamical networks as a new frontier in plant–microbe interactions [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2014
A systems perspective on diverse phenotypes, mechanisms of infection, and responses to environmental stresses can lead to considerable advances in agriculture and medicine. A significant promise of systems biology within plants is the development of disease-resistant crop varieties, which would maximize yield output for food, clothing, building ...

Shared features and reciprocal complementation of the Chlamydomonas and Arabidopsis microbiota

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Plants and algae associate with microbial communities that affect their growth and development. Here, the authors characterize the microbiota associated with a unicellular alga in soil, revealing extensive taxonomic and functional overlap with the root ...

Rapid evolution of bacterial mutualism in the plant rhizosphere

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Beneficial plant-microbe interactions are common in nature, but direct evidence for the evolution of mutualism is scarce. Here, Li et al. experimentally evolve a rhizospheric bacterium and find that it can evolve into a mutualist on a relatively short ...

Nicotinic Acid Catabolism Modulates Bacterial Mycophagy in Burkholderia gladioli Strain NGJ1

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2023
Burkholderia gladioli strain NGJ1 exhibits mycophagous activity on a broad range of fungi, including Rhizoctonia solani, a devastating plant pathogen. Here, we demonstrate that the nicotinic acid (NA) catabolic pathway in NGJ1 is required for mycophagy ...

Calcium regulates the mycophagous ability of Burkholderia gladioli strain NGJ1 in a type III secretion system-dependent manner

open access: yesBMC Microbiology, 2020
Background A rice associated bacterium Burkholderia gladioli strain NGJ1 demonstrates mycophagy, a phenomenon wherein bacteria feed on fungi. Previously, we have reported that NGJ1 utilizes type III secretion system (T3SS) to deliver a prophage tail-like

Experimental-Evolution-Driven Identification of Arabidopsis Rhizosphere Competence Genes in Pseudomonas protegens

open access: yesmBio, 2021
Beneficial root-associated microorganisms carry out many functions that are essential for plant performance. Establishment of a bacterium on plant roots, however, requires overcoming many challenges.

Modulation of ethylene- and heat-controlled hyponastic leaf movement in Arabidopsis thaliana by the plant defence hormones jasmonate and salicylate [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Upward leaf movement (hyponastic growth) is adopted by several plant species including Arabidopsis thaliana, as a mechanism to escape adverse growth conditions. Among the signals that trigger hyponastic growth are, the gaseous hormone ethylene, low light
