The protective action of the rhizosphere microbiome against soilborne diseases.

open access: yes, 2019
The rhizosphere microbiome plays a pivotal role in the functioning of plants by influencing their physiology and development. While many members of the rhizosphere microbiome are beneficial to plant growth, also plant pathogenic microorganisms colonize ...

Iron Physiology and Its Impact on Atopic Diseases: An EAACI Taskforce Report

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Iron is essential for oxygen transport, energy metabolism, and immune regulation. Yet iron deficiency is the most common micronutrient disorder across all age groups, affecting nearly one quarter of the global population. Iron deficiency triggers nutritional immunity, a host defense mechanism that withholds and redistributes iron, contributing

ERF transcription factor StPti5 is a regulator of endophyte community maintenance in potato

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary We have recently identified an ethylene response factor, StPti5, as a susceptibility factor that negatively regulates immune responses to diverse pathogens. Here, we investigated the role of StPti5 in the processes involved in the colonization of potato with beneficial organisms.

Biodiversity-based enhancement of rhizosphere microbiome functionality

open access: yes, 2019
The rhizosphere microbiome is the unseen engine driving agricultural systems. However, intensive agricultural systems, especially the high inputs of fertilizers and pesticides, have caused a widespread loss of microbiome diversity, and decoupled the ...

Observing the invisible: X‐ray CT for plant–microbe interactions

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Utility of X‐ray computed tomography (X‐ray CT) for visualising belowground plant interactions between multiple spatial scales and focal planes. Summary Plant–microbe interactions are inherently spatial, yet the physical structure of the soil and rhizosphere is rarely treated as a mechanistic variable in experimental design.

Investigating GERMs: how genotype, environment, and rhizosphere microbiome interactions underlie heat response in maize and sorghum

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Three genotypes – a heat‐resistant maize (Zea mays), a heat‐susceptible maize, and a sorghum (Sorghum bicolor) variety – were grown to the V4 stage in growth chambers under optimal conditions or subjected to heat stress. Plants were grown in soil containing a complex microbial community, or in the same soil with a depleted microbiome.

Enhanced Yield of GmJAG1-Edited Soybeans Accompanied by Improved Function of the Rhizosphere Microbiome

open access: yesPlants
In the present study, we investigated how soybean yield is enhanced upon editing of the gene GmJAG1 and the consequent influence on the structure and function of the rhizosphere microbiome. Field trials revealed that gene-edited (GE) soybeans had a 55.22%

Root hair plasticity in cereals under abiotic stress

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
An integrative perspective on how to study the regulation of root hair plasticity to increase the resilience of cereals to abiotic stress. Summary Abiotic stress is a constant threat to crop growth and yield in the context of climate change. Root systems that can best adapt their architecture to environmental challenges contribute to enhanced ...

First Tetraploa Genome and Multi‐Omics Analysis Reveal Key Plant‐Microbe‐Soil Interactions for Salt Tolerance and Yield Improvement of Wheat

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Salinity is a major threat to global agricultural productivity of staple crops such as wheat. Although microbial‐based solutions hold promise for alleviating salinity stress, practical implementation is hindered by insufficient mechanistic characterization of bioinoculants and their interactions with plants.

Characterizing the microbiome recruited by the endangered plant Firmiana danxiaensis in phosphorus-deficient acidic soil

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology
Phosphorus (P)-deficient soils serve as crucial habitats for endangered plant species. Microbiomes play pivotal roles in soil element cycling and in determining a plant’s adaptability to the environment.
