Enhancing Tolerance to Combined Heat and Drought Stress in Cool‐Season Grain Legumes: Mechanisms, Genetic Insights, and Future Directions

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The increasing frequency of concurrent heat and drought stress poses a significant challenge to agricultural productivity, particularly for cool‐season grain legumes, including broad bean (Vicia Faba L.), lupin (Lupinus spp.), lentil (Lens culinaris Medik), chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.), grasspea (Lathyrus sativus L.), pea (Pisum sativum L ...

The nitric oxide response in plant-associated endosymbiotic bacteria [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Nitric oxide (NO) is a gaseous signalling molecule which becomes very toxic due to its ability to react with multiple cellular targets in biological systems. Bacterial cells protect against NO through the expression of enzymes that detoxify this molecule

Rhizobia–Bean Symbiosis Increases Root Herbivore Attraction and Growth via Volatile Signals and Enhanced Nutrition

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The symbiosis between nitrogen‐fixing rhizobia and plants is considered mutually beneficial, yet its indirect effects on other organisms remain understudied. We examined how rhizobia symbiosis in Phaseolus vulgaris influences the behaviour and performance of Diabrotica balteata larvae. Specifically, we tested larval preference for nodulated (R+

Assessing the use of native rhizobia to improve nitrogen fixation under abiotic stress

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences & Environment
Biological nitrogen fixation by rhizobia bacteria plays a pivotal role in sustainable agriculture by converting atmospheric nitrogen into a form that plants can assimilate, thereby reducing the need for synthetic fertilizers.

Non‐Additive Interactions Between Multiple Mutualists and Host Plant Genotype Simultaneously Promote Increased Plant Growth and Pathogen Defence

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding the impact of microbial interactions on plants is critical for maintaining healthy native ecosystems and sustainable agricultural practices. Despite the reality that genetically distinct plants host multiple microbes of large effect in the field, it remains unclear the extent to which host genotypes modulate non‐additive ...

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.

Circular RNAs in Lotus japonicus Responses to Nutrient Supply and Mesorhizobium Symbiosis

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Symbiotic interactions between legumes and rhizobia enable nitrogen fixation under low nutrient conditions. The establishment and function of symbiotic interactions require coordinated changes in gene expression in both the host and the microbe. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are endogenous gene‐specific molecules that can regulate transcription and

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).

Calcium and Nitrogen Availability Controls Root Exudation in Hydroponically Cultured Barley

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Root exudation is a key component of plant‐rhizosphere interactome. It is increasingly evident that root exudates influence rhizospheric microbial communities and in turn can benefit plants through improved resource allocation. However, how suboptimal nutrient availability relates to control of root exudation is poorly understood.

SUSTAINABLE WAY OF IMPROVING GRAIN LEGUMES PRODUCTIVITYAGAINST FAILURE OF INTRODUCED RHIZOBIA INOCULANT

open access: yesThe Bioscientist, 2022
Rhizobia inoculation has been established worldwide as a cheaper, more effective way of ensuring adequate nitrogen supply to legumes than even the application of nitrogen fertilizer. The development of rhizobia inoculant industries in many countries has
