Rhizosphere protists are key determinants of plant health

open access: yesMicrobiome, 2020
Background Plant health is intimately influenced by the rhizosphere microbiome, a complex assembly of organisms that changes markedly across plant growth.

A review on the plant microbiome: Ecology, functions, and emerging trends in microbial application

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Research, 2019
Plants have evolved with a plethora of microorganisms having important roles for plant growth and health. A considerable amount of information is now available on the structure and dynamics of plant microbiota as well as on the functional capacities of ...

The soil microbiome increases plant survival and modifies interactions with root endosymbionts in the field

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2022
Evidence is accumulating that the soil microbiome—the community of microorganisms living in soils—has a major effect on plant traits and fitness. However, most work to date has taken place under controlled laboratory conditions and has not experimentally

What is a hologenomic adaptation? Emergent individuality and inter-identity in multispecies systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Contemporary biological research has suggested that some host–microbiome multispecies systems (referred to as “holobionts”) can in certain circumstances evolve as unique biological individual, thus being a unit of selection in evolution.

Taxonomic Features and Comparison of the Gut Microbiome from Two Edible Fungus-Farming Termites (Macrotermes falciger, M. natalensis) Harvested in the Vhembe District of Limpopo, South Africa [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Background Termites are an important food resource for many human populations around the world, and are a good supply of nutrients. The fungus-farming ‘higher’ termite members of Macrotermitinae are also consumed by modern great apes and are implicated ...

A T-DNA mutant screen that combines high-throughput phenotyping with the efficient identification of mutated genes by targeted genome sequencing

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology, 2019
Background Nitrogen dioxide (NO2) triggers hypersensitive response (HR)-like cell death in Arabidopsis thaliana. A high-throughput mutant screen was established to identify genes involved in this type of programmed cell death.

Sphagnum physiology in the context of changing climate: emergent influences of genomics, modelling and host-microbiome interactions on understanding ecosystem function. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Peatlands harbour more than one-third of terrestrial carbon leading to the argument that the bryophytes, as major components of peatland ecosystems, store more organic carbon in soils than any other collective plant taxa. Plants of the genus Sphagnum are

Molecular bases and role of viruses in the human microbiome. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Viruses are dependent biological entities that interact with the genetic material of most cells on the planet, including the trillions within the human microbiome.

Long-term effect of epigenetic modification in plant–microbe interactions: modification of DNA methylation induced by plant growth-promoting bacteria mediates promotion process

open access: yesMicrobiome, 2022
Background Soil microbiomes are considered a cornerstone of the next green revolution, and plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB) are critical for microbiome engineering.

Abiotic Stresses Shift Belowground Populus-Associated Bacteria Toward a Core Stress Microbiome

open access: yesmSystems, 2018
Adverse growth conditions can lead to decreased plant growth, productivity, and survival, resulting in poor yields or failure of crops and biofeedstocks.
