Visualizing the Hidden Half: Plant-Microbe Interactions in the Rhizosphere

open access: yesmSystems, 2021
Plant roots and the associated rhizosphere constitute a dynamic environment that fosters numerous intra- and interkingdom interactions, including metabolite exchange between plants and soil mediated by root exudates and the rhizosphere microbiome.

The Maize Rhizosphere Microbiome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The rhizosphere microbiome, which is the microbial community living in close proximity to plant roots, is important for plant growth and development. Besides environmental factors, plant genetic control is key in cultivating the rhizosphere microbiome ...

Navigating the future of nano‐pesticides: A perspective on design, efficacy, mechanisms, and environmental stewardship

open access: yesiMeta, EarlyView.
Nano‐pesticides are driving a paradigm shift toward sustainable plant protection. This review systematically synthesizes recent advances across four interconnected domains: (i) intelligent formulation design for targeted delivery and controlled release; (ii) interfacial behavior regulation to enhance foliar deposition; (iii) multi‐omics elucidation of ...

Microbiome-Assisted Breeding to Understand Cultivar-Dependent Assembly in Cucurbita pepo

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Recently, it was shown that long-term plant breeding does not only shape plant characteristics but also impacts plant-associated microbiota substantially. This requires a microbiome-integrative breeding approach, which was not yet shown.

Synthetic microbial communities for engineering climate‐smart biofertilizers

open access: yesiMeta, EarlyView.
Global agricultural productivity is increasingly destabilized by climate change—driven droughts, floods, extreme heat, and severe storms. Although the climate‐smart agriculture (CSA) framework addresses these challenges, implementation has focused mainly on plant genetics and agronomic inputs, leaving the adaptive potential of the crop microbiome ...

Compositional profiling of the rhizosphere microbiome of Canada thistle reveals consistent patterns across the United States northern Great Plains

open access: yesScientific Reports
Canada thistle is a pervasive perennial weed, causing challenges to agricultural and natural ecosystems globally. Although research has focused on the phenology, genetics, and control of Canada thistle, little is known about the rhizosphere microbiome ...

Analysis of the community composition and bacterial diversity of the rhizosphere microbiome across different plant taxa

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, 2019
Rhizobacteria play an important role in bridging the soil and plant microbiomes and improving the health and growth of plants. In this study, the bacterial community structures and compositions of rhizosphere microbiomes associated with six plant species,
