Functionally complementary bacterial inoculant coordinates arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi to improve Angelica sinensis root yield and quality

open access: yesiMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Comprehensive understanding of how diverse PGPR strains enhance the rhizosphere microenvironment remains a considerable challenge. Here, we provide experimental evidence that a functionally synergistic composite microbial formulation can markedly enhance growth performance and improve the quality attributes in Angelica sinensis.

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

open access: yesActa 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.

Phosphorus-solubilizing bacteria isolated from the rhizosphere of wild potato Solanum bulbocastanum enhance growth of modern potato varieties

open access: yesBulletin of the National Research Centre, 2022
Background Wild potato species harbor a distinctive rhizosphere microbiome relative to their modern counterparts, thus providing a competitive advantage for acquiring phosphorus (P) in their native habitats.

Fungal entomopathogens: new insights on their ecology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
An important mechanism for insect pest control should be the use of fungal entomopathogens. Even though these organisms have been studied for more than 100 y, their effective use in the field remains elusive.

Accu16S/AccuITS: Accurate and broadly applicable amplicon sequencing for absolute microbiome quantification

open access: yesiMeta, EarlyView.
Traditional 16S rRNA gene and Internal Transcribed Spacer region amplicon sequencing provides only relative abundance, often leading to biased ecological interpretations. To overcome this limitation, we developed Accu16S/AccuITS, an absolute quantification method for bacterial and fungal amplicons based on synthetic internal spike‐in DNA with known ...

Insights into Bacterial Extracellular Vesicle Biogenesis, Functions, and Implications in Plant–Microbe Interactions

open access: yesMicroorganisms
Plant–microbe interactions play a crucial role in shaping plant health and survival. In recent years, the role of extracellular vesicles (EVs) in mediating intercellular communication between plants and microbes has emerged as an intriguing area of ...

Challenges and opportunities for quantifying roots and rhizosphere interactions through imaging and image analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The morphology of roots and root systems influences the efficiency by which plants acquire nutrients and water, anchor themselves and provide stability to the surrounding soil. Plant genotype and the biotic and abiotic environment significantly influence

Microbial synthetic community ARC prevents aflatoxin and increases rhizobia‐legume nodulation couplingly

open access: yesiMeta, EarlyView.
Develop a novel strategy for exploring a dual‐functional microbial synthetic community. Invent the SynCom ARC, which achieves aflatoxin control and rhizobia nodulation induction coupling in peanut. SynCom ARC inhibits A. flavus growth and reduces peanut aflatoxin levels by 85.6% in 4 year field trials.

Impact of soil management on the functional activity of microbial communities associated to cork oak rhizosphere [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The microbial ecology of cork oak rhizosphere was investigated using the Biolog community level physiological profile (CLPP) that provides a unique metabolic fingerprint helpful for the characterization of complex microbial communities.
