Agricultural management and plant selection interactively affect rhizosphere microbial community structure and nitrogen cycling. [PDF]

, 2019
BACKGROUND:Rhizosphere microbial communities are key regulators of plant performance, yet few studies have assessed the impact of different management approaches on the rhizosphere microbiomes of major crops.

Effect of Endophytic Fungi on Thrips tabaci Development and Population Dynamics

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Endophytic fungi are promising biocontrol agents because they colonise healthy plant tissues asymptomatically while inducing systemic resistance that negatively affects herbivorous insects. We investigated whether treatments with the endophytes Trichoderma harzianum and Beauveria bassiana in two onion cultivars (Allium cepa L.; Sturon and Red ...

Drivers of strigolactone diversity: P450s in strigolactone biosynthesis

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This review summarizes the discovery and functional identification of cytochrome P450 in strigolactone biosynthesis, classifies and summarizes the members discovered so far, clarifies their biological significance, discusses the technology of strigolactone synthesis research, and finally describes some problems in strigolactone research and potential ...

BIOAVAILABILITY OF ELEMENTS FOR EFFECTIVE PHYTOREMEDIATION AND PHYTOMINING: THE ROLE OF RHIZOSPHERE PROCESSES [PDF]

, 2018
The success of phytoremediation (especially phytoextraction) and phytomining depends heavily on the bioavailability of target elements, which, among others, is a function of soil mineral phases, soil organic matter, pH and redox potential ...

Klebsiella sp. strain B7 enhances alkaline tolerance by secreting pyruvic acid to accelerate L‐malic acid accumulation in soybean

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Klebsiella sp. strain B7 acts as a positive regulator in alkaline stress responses in soybean. By activating pyruvic acid metabolism and L‐malic acid biosynthesis pathways, B7 significantly increases alkaline tolerance and yield in soybean. ABSTRACT Alkaline stress is a major constraint on crop growth and development and negatively impacts soybean ...

Shaping future forests: how can ecophysiology support climate‐smart forest management?

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Climate change, particularly the associated increase in extreme events and disturbances, threatens the numerous environmental, social, and economic benefits that forests provide, both locally and globally. Heat and drought pose significant risks to forest ecosystems; the anticipated future climate is expected to exacerbate this trend ...

Soil phosphorus drives subcontinental patterns of carbon isotope discrimination across Australia

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Several transects have been established to study the sensitivity of carbon isotope discrimination (Δ13C) in woody plants to mean annual precipitation (MAP) across Australia. These have shown a surprising divergence in Δ13C‐MAP sensitivity among subcontinental regions.

Benzoxazinoid‐mediated microbiome feedbacks enhance Arabidopsis growth and defence

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Plants modulate their surrounding microbiome via root exudates and such conditioned soil microbiomes feed back on the performance of the next generation of plants. How plants perceive altered soil microbiomes and modulate their performance in response to such microbiome feedbacks, however, remains largely unknown.

A BAC-guided haplotype assembly pipeline increases the resolution of the virus resistance locus CMD2 in cassava

Genome Biology
Background Cassava is an important crop for food security in the tropics where its production is jeopardized by several viral diseases, including the cassava mosaic disease (CMD) which is endemic in Sub-Saharan Africa and the Indian subcontinent ...

Root and microbial contributions to anoxic microsite formation in the rhizosphere: a microfluidic approach

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Plant root‐associated anoxic microsites may influence the fate of nutrients and contaminants in the rhizosphere, but their dynamics remain relatively unknown. To examine the formation of root‐induced anoxic microsites over space and time, we use microfluidic devices integrated with transparent, planar oxygen sensors in a wheat (Triticum ...
