Impact of the invasive diatom species Cymbella janischii on riverine microbial biofilm communities and a potential role of bacterially produced zeatin

Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract The diatom Cymbella janischii is an invasive species in Japan, causing nuisance blooms by forming thick mats in rivers. To date, there are no documented studies on the microbiome associations in C. janischii mats or the processes that drive bloom formation.

Investigating GERMs: how genotype, environment, and rhizosphere microbiome interactions underlie heat response in maize and sorghum

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Three genotypes – a heat‐resistant maize (Zea mays), a heat‐susceptible maize, and a sorghum (Sorghum bicolor) variety – were grown to the V4 stage in growth chambers under optimal conditions or subjected to heat stress. Plants were grown in soil containing a complex microbial community, or in the same soil with a depleted microbiome.

First Tetraploa Genome and Multi‐Omics Analysis Reveal Key Plant‐Microbe‐Soil Interactions for Salt Tolerance and Yield Improvement of Wheat

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Salinity is a major threat to global agricultural productivity of staple crops such as wheat. Although microbial‐based solutions hold promise for alleviating salinity stress, practical implementation is hindered by insufficient mechanistic characterization of bioinoculants and their interactions with plants.
