Plant mechanisms contributing to acid impairment of nodulation of Medicago murex and Medicago sativa by Sinorhizobium medicae [PDF]
, 2003 The widespread sowing of the perennial forage legume Medicago sativa to lower groundwater tables in south-western Australia is limited as many soils targeted for its use are too acidic (pHCaCl2 < 5) for consistent nodulation with Sinorhizobium spp.

Unlocking the Secrets of the Rhizosphere [PDF]
Trends in Plant Science, 2016 This special issue offers an insightful and wide-ranging set of reviews on one of the fastest-growing areas of plant science today, the rhizosphere (Figure 1). The underground world of the rhizosphere, a narrow region of soil surrounding the plant roots, is a concept that was first coined by Lorenz Hiltner in 1904. Hiltner proposed that the rhizosphere

BENEFICIAL RHIZOSPHERE PSEUDOMONADS
Ecological genetics, 2008 Among the many bacteria present on and around the root, Pseudomonas bacteria are (among) the best root colonizers and therefore very suitable to apply for beneficial purposes. In this chapter, we discuss the possibilities to use such bacteria for the following purposes: fertilization of the plant, stimulation of plant growth and yield, reduction of ...

Insights into enhanced, divergent, and additive responses to single and combined hypoxia-salt stress
BMC Plant BiologyPlants frequently encounter simultaneous stressors, requiring complex adaptive responses across regulatory levels. Although morphological and metabolic effects of combined hypoxia-salt stress are known in halophytes, the transcriptional mechanisms ...

Zinc requirements of transplanted oilseed rape [PDF]
, 2004 Transplanting is a common practice for many horticultural crops and some field crops. Recently, transplanted oilseed rape (Brassica napus L.) crops have been reported to be sensitive to zinc (Zn) deficiency.

Structural differences between bulk and rhizosphere soil
, 2005 The physical characteristics of the soil at the root–soil interface are crucial because they determine both physical aspects of root function such as water and nutrient uptake and the microbial activity that is most relevant to root growth.
