Unraveling the interplay between root exudates, microbiota, and rhizosheath formation in pearl millet

Microbiome
Background The rhizosheath, a cohesive soil layer firmly adhering to plant roots, plays a vital role in facilitating water and mineral uptake. In pearl millet, rhizosheath formation is genetically controlled and influenced by root exudates.

Endophytic Bacillus subtilis antagonize soil-borne fungal pathogens and suppress wilt complex disease in chickpea plants (Cicer arietinum L.)

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
The present study aimed to identify potential endophytic bacteria antagonistic against three soil-borne fungal pathogens, Rhizoctonia solani, Sclerotium rolfsii, and Fusarium oxysporum f.sp.

Differences between soil solutions obtained from rhizosphere and non-rhizosphere soils by water displacement and soil centrifugation

, 1994
Soil solution was obtained from potted rhizosphere or non-rhizosphere soils by water displacement or soil centrifugation. The pH of the displaced solutions was lower than that of bulk soils when solutions were obtained from non-rhizosphere soil, although

Sustainable Cropping Requires Adaptation to a Heterogeneous Rhizosphere

, 2020
Root–soil interactions in the rhizosphere are central to resource acquisition and crop production in agricultural systems. However, apart from studies in idealized experimental systems, rhizosphere processes in real agricultural soils in situ are largely

Root traits and microbial community interactions in relation to phosphorus availability and acquisition, with particular reference to Brassica [PDF]

, 2014
Brassicas are among the most widely grown and important crops worldwide. Phosphorus (P) is a key mineral element in the growth of all plants and is largely supplied as inorganic rock-phosphate, a dwindling resource, which is likely to be an increasingly ...

Bacillus strains immobilized in alginate macrobeads enhance drought stress adaptation of Guinea grass

, 2021
Drought stress reduces crop growth and yield. This study aimed to formulate alginate macrobeads inoculants using strains Bacillus sp. XT13 and XT14, and evaluate their effect on the stress response of guinea grass under drought.

Contrasting responses of the bacterial communities in ectomycorrhizal roots and rhizosphere soils to defoliation or winter hardening

, 2018
We examined the effects of photosynthetic activity of the host tree on the bacterial communities in ectomycorrhizal (ECM) roots and in rhizosphere soil.

Rhizosphere Responses to Elevated CO2 [PDF]

, 2013
Rising atmospheric CO2 levels are predicted to have major consequences on C cycling and the functioning of terrestrial ecosystems. Experimentation during the last two to three decades using a large variety of approaches have provided sufficient ...

Effects of bacterial inoculants and irrigation regimes on yield, mycorrhizal colonisation, and photosynthetic efficiency in strawberry cultivars

Acta Scientiarum Polonorum: Hortorum Cultus
Strawberries (Fragaria × ananassa) are a globally significant fruit crop with high nutritional and economic value. However, their shallow roots and high water demands make them vulnerable to water stress.

Vers une souveraineté alimentaire durable : opportunités et défis de la filière rizicole en République Démocratique du Congo (synthèse bibliographique)

Biotechnologie, Agronomie, Société et Environnement
Introduction. Rice, mainly represented by two species — Oryza sativa (Asian) and Oryza glaberrima (African) — is a strategic cereal for global food security. The species O. sativa is consumed by nearly half of the world’s population.
