Consistent root microbiomes across contrasting habitats in a wild perennial vine

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Communities of bacteria and fungi associated with the roots are similar across diverse habitats in a wild plant. Abstract While we are beginning to understand that the plant microbiome is important for plant health, we still lack information about how plant microbiomes are shaped across environments and how they influence plant performance, in ...

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

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
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 ...

Non-Rhizobial Endophytes (NREs) of the Nodule Microbiome Have Synergistic Roles in Beneficial Tripartite Plant–Microbe Interactions

open access: yesMicroorganisms
Microbial symbioses deal with the symbiotic interactions between a given microorganism and another host. The most widely known and investigated microbial symbiosis is the association between leguminous plants and nitrogen-fixing rhizobia.

Seeding rate and reseeding potential of ball clover in binary mixtures with annual ryegrass

open access: yesCrop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 2, December 2026.
Abstract Legumes can form symbiotic associations with rhizobia and fix atmospheric nitrogen (N), contributing N to forage systems when grown in mixtures with non‐N‐fixing species. Ball clover (BC; Trifolium nigrescens Viv.) is a cool‐season annual legume with strong reseeding potential due to its production of hard seed.

Nodule crushing: a novel technique to decentralize rhizobia inoculant technology and empower small-scale farmers to enhance legume production and income

open access: yesFrontiers in Sustainable Food Systems
Millions of small scale legume farmers lack access to rhizobia bacterial inoculants that improve crop protein and yield, and minimize fossil-fuel based nitrogen fertilizers, through biological nitrogen fixation (BNF).

Bayesian optimized color filter: A fast method for segmentation of plant phenotypes from 3D point cloud images

open access: yesThe Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract Multispectral three‐dimensional (3D) imaging offers substantial potential for plant phenotyping, yet manual segmentation of plant organs remains a bottleneck in breeding programs. We developed a color‐based filtering workflow for faba bean (Vicia faba L.) point clouds that optimizes lower and upper thresholds of spectral indices and broadband ...

Genotype‐by‐Environment Interaction Influenced the Crude Protein and Total Amino Acid Content in Lentil Varieties

open access: yesLegume Science, Volume 8, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.) is a globally important grain legume valued for its high‐protein content and nutritional quality. However, the genetic and environmental factors influencing protein and amino acid composition, particularly the role of genotype × environment interaction (GEI), remain partially uncovered.

Annexin- and calcium-regulated priming of legume root cells for endosymbiotic infection

open access: yesNature Communications
Legumes establish endosymbioses with arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi or rhizobia bacteria to improve mineral nutrition. Symbionts are hosted in privileged habitats, root cortex (for AM fungi) or nodules (for rhizobia) for efficient nutrient exchange ...

Advancing Thermotolerance in Beans: Integrating Physiology, Genomics, and Breeding for Climate Adaptation

open access: yesLegume Science, Volume 8, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Rising global temperatures increasingly threaten bean production and the food security of millions of people who depend on these protein‐rich legumes. Heat stress during the reproductive stages induces pollen sterility, flower abscission, and disruptions in source–sink relationships, resulting in yield losses of 30%–40% or more when critical ...
