Impact of plant breeding on the responsiveness of maize and wheat varieties to an arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal symbiont

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Field inoculation with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) offers a promising route to improve sustainable agriculture and food production, yet results are often variable. We investigated the mycorrhizal growth response of maize and wheat varieties recommended for farmers and found substantial variation under greenhouse conditions.

Translational research on the endophytic microbiome of forest trees

, 2021
The concept of translational research refers to the process of harnessing knowledge from basic sciences to impacts beyond the academy. The process involves the transfer of knowledge over three major gaps: first, from knowledge generation to ...

Plant species are more important to bacterial community composition than seeding ratio in a pea‐canola intercropping system

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Demand for agricultural land has increased due to rising demand for food, potentially leading to expansion into previously untouched habitats, which threatens refugia of native plants. We aimed to provide insight into how variation in seeding ratio may impact soil bacterial communities in a pea‐canola intercropping system, potentially altering crop ...

Root triterpenoid metabolites drive the assembly and feedback regulation of the rhizosphere microbiome during flowering to senescence in Rhododendron hybridum ‘Yangmeihong’

Frontiers in Microbiology
The flowering-to-senescence transition is a critical developmental period in ornamental plants, yet the interplay between root metabolites and the rhizosphere microbiome during this process remains poorly characterized.

Grape (Vitis L.) biodiversity: Historical uses, current status, and future potential

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Grapes (Vitis L. ‐ Vitaceae) are among the most important fruit crops globally, consumed in the form of wine, fresh fruit, raisins, and in many products. Complex and fascinating biocultural processes underpin the crop, with a remarkable assemblage of species comprising grapevines and with heterogeneous viticultural practices and rapidly advancing new ...

Analysis of the bacterial communities in the rhizosphere of Chrysanthemum via denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis of PCR- amplified 16S rRNA as well as DNA fragments coding for 16S rRNA [PDF]

, 2001
The effect of developing chrysanthemum roots on the presence and activity of bacterial populations in the rhizosphere was examined by using culture-independent methods.

Transplanting Soil Microbiomes Leads to Lasting Effects on Willow Growth, but not on the Rhizosphere Microbiome [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015
Plants interact closely with microbes, which are partly responsible for plant growth, health, and adaptation to stressful environments. Engineering the plant-associated microbiome could improve plant survival and performance in stressful environments such as contaminated soils. Here, willow cuttings were planted into highly petroleum-contaminated soils

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi enhance plant performance in trace element‐contaminated soils with element‐specific accumulation patterns

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Soil contamination by toxic trace elements is a growing global challenge that threatens food safety, agricultural productivity, and ecosystem health. We combined results from many experiments worldwide to assess whether beneficial soil fungi can help plants cope with contaminated soils.

High nitrogen-induced changes in rhizosphere microbial community structure can modulate disease susceptibility to the rice blast

Environmental Microbiome
Background Nitrogen-induced susceptibility (NIS) in rice, where excess nitrogen (N) enhances vulnerability to Magnaporthe oryzae, has been observed but remains mechanistically unclear.
