Atmospheric dust is a global nutrient source for plants via foliar uptake

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Atmospheric mineral dust is a critical nutrient supplier to marine ecosystems, but its role in terrestrial plant nutrition remains underexplored due to the assumption that nutrients are acquired solely from soils via roots. Here, we demonstrate that plants directly acquire nutrients from dust through leaves, revealing an unrecognized ...

Phosphate starvation induces root cell‐type‐specific transcriptional responses and alternative splicing

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Phosphate (Pi) is an essential nutrient for plant growth, and understanding how Arabidopsis thaliana root cells respond to Pi deficiency is crucial to decipher whole plant responses. We perform high‐resolution transcriptomic profiling across five distinct root cell types, identifying differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and differential ...

Increased arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal biomass and diversity in soil under long‐term climate drying and warming

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) support critical ecosystem services including plant resource acquisition and productivity. AMF functional traits such as relative biomass investment in root vs soil colonization or drought tolerance are thought to be evolutionarily conserved within AMF lineages and might influence AMF community responses to ...

Tree stem methane emissions are regulated by site‐level biogeochemistry over species identity in Amazon floodplain forests

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Tree stems in Amazonian floodplains emit substantial methane (CH4), yet controls on emission variability remain unclear. Emissions span orders of magnitude between várzea (nutrient‐rich) and igapó (nutrient‐poor) forests and among trees, suggesting controls beyond flooding.

Evaluation of combined root exudate and rhizosphere microbiota sampling approaches to elucidate plant–soil–microbe interactions

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Deciphering the root exudate‐driven interplay between plants and the rhizosphere microbiota is essential for understanding plant adaptation to the environment and future‐proofing crop production. However, sampling root exudates and rhizosphere soil remains challenging due to the low throughput and destructive nature of the process.

Endophytic and ectomycorrhizal, an overlooked dual ecological niche? Insights from natural environments and Russula species

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Ectomycorrhizal fungi (EcMF) are key components of temperate ecosystems, and recent studies suggest that they can also inhabit non‐EcM plant roots as endophytes. We aimed to (1) provide new evidence of EcMF colonization of non‐EcM hosts, (2) offer direct microscopic confirmation of such endophytism and (3) assess factors influencing ...

Rooting Conifer Genetic Research: An Accessible and Efficient Transformation System

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Conifers serve as the cornerstone of global forest ecosystems, yet their genetic transformation faces notorious challenges. To overcome the intrinsic resistance of conifer adventitious roots to Agrobacterium/Rhizobium‐mediated transformation, we systematically and iteratively engineered the binary vector by introducing chimeric Ri plasmid ...

OsbHLH064, an IVb bHLH Transcription Factor, Regulates Iron Homeostasis and Enhances Grain Fe Accumulation in Rice

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Iron (Fe) is an essential micronutrient for plant growth and development. The maintenance of Fe homeostasis relies on sophisticated regulatory networks where bHLH transcription factors play a key role. However, how these factors coordinate to regulate this vital process is not fully understood.
