Genetic design of soybean hosts and bradyrhizobial endosymbionts reduces N2O emissions from soybean rhizosphere

Nature Communications
Soybeans fix atmospheric N2 through symbiosis with rhizobia. The relationship between rhizobia and soybeans, particularly those with high nitrous oxide (N2O)-reducing (N2OR) activities, can be leveraged to reduce N2O emissions from agricultural soils ...

Screening of Antibiotics and Heavy Metals Resistant Nitrogen Fixating Bacteria for Efficient Phytoremediation

Journal of Microbiological Sciences
Use of sewage water and agriculture biocides for cultivation has resulted in soil pollution with antibiotic and heavy metal in Pakistan. These two major contaminants hinder Rhizobia survival, nitrogenase enzyme activity and nodulation.

Leaf Tissue‐Specific Phosphorus Allocation Is Linked to Leaf Lifespan in Chickpea Accessions

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plants strategically allocate phosphorus (P) among leaf tissues to support physiological functions. However, there is limited understanding of contrasting leaf cellular P‐allocation patterns and their physiological consequences. We quantified leaf P fractions, photosynthetic P‐use efficiency (PPUE), and P‐remobilisation efficiency (PRE) in ...

Co-inoculation with rhizobia and AMF inhibited soybean red crown rot: from field study to plant defense-related gene expression analysis.

PLoS ONE, 2012
BackgroundSoybean red crown rot is a major soil-borne disease all over the world, which severely affects soybean production. Efficient and sustainable methods are strongly desired to control the soil-borne diseases.Principal findingsWe firstly ...

Directed Evolution of Plant‐Associated Bacteria Enhances Plant Holobiont Stress Tolerance

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant stress responses are shaped by both the plant genome and its associated microbial communities, which together form the plant holobiont. Given the rapid adaptive potential of plant‐associated microbes, we hypothesised that directed evolution under selective pressure can accelerate the development of holobiont‐level stress tolerance ...

Rhizobial Symbiosis Enhances Salinity Tolerance in Legumes Through Coordinated Physiological and Molecular Responses: Evidence From Common Vetch and Pea

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil salinisation severely constrains crop production. Legumes rely on rhizobial symbiosis for sustainable nitrogen acquisition. Although salinity is known to impair nodulation and nitrogen fixation, how symbiosis influences plant tolerance to salt stress remains unclear.

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

Agrosystems, 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.

Concurrent Increases in Root Phosphorus Acquisition and Leaf Phosphorus Resorption Underpin Enhanced Phosphorus Economy in Chickpea During Reproductive Development

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Phosphorus (P) acquisition and leaf P‐use strategies are critical for reproductive success and productivity, yet, their developmental association during the reproductive phase remains unclear. Five chickpea accessions contrasting in P‐remobilisation efficiency (PRE) were grown in a temperature‐controlled glasshouse under moderate P deficiency.
