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

Plant, 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

Matchmaking: a meta‐analysis of plant growth‐promoting microbial partnerships driving tree seedling performance in the Atlantic Forest biome

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction The Brazilian Atlantic Forest (BAF) is a biodiversity hotspot, and inoculating native seedlings with plant growth‐promoting microorganisms (PGPMs) may enhance seedling vigor for forest restoration. Objectives We performed a meta‐analysis to evaluate the effects of PGPMs on BAF seedlings and identify strategies to optimize ...

Quality of Forage Cactus Silage with the Addition of Hay from Forages Adapted to the Semiarid Region

New Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 2, April 2026.
This study investigated the effects of including hays from different forages adapted to the semiarid region on the forage cactus (Opuntia fícus‐indica (L.) Mill) silage quality. A completely randomized design, with five treatments was used: pure forage cactus and forage cactus associated with 30% hay from gliricidia (Gliricidia sepium), pornunça ...

The lectin-rhizobium interactions underlying symbiotic nodulation: a focal review on vegetable legumes

Vegetable Research
Lectins are carbohydrate-binding proteins that play key roles in cell recognition, signaling, and plant defense. In leguminous plants, lectins are crucial for symbiotic interactions with rhizobia—nitrogen-fixing bacteria that enhance soil fertility and ...

Genetic Diversity and Nodulation Potential of Bradyrhizobium Strains in Cowpea and Soybean

Plants
Bradyrhizobium is a genetically diverse genus that forms symbioses with numerous legumes, including major crops such as cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) and soybean (Glycine max). Understanding the genetic and symbiotic diversity of native strains is essential

Growth Response of Crop Legumes to Soil Microbiota Is Linked With Soil Nutrients and Planting History

Plant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Soil microbiota provide essential services to plants, but predicting or manipulating these benefits is difficult. Here, we investigated microbial benefits to legume crops at a landscape level to uncover factors that predict those services and can be modified by growers.
