The Function of Root Exudates in the Root Colonization by Beneficial Soil Rhizobacteria [PDF]
Soil-beneficial microbes in the rhizosphere play important roles in improving plant growth and health. Root exudates play key roles in plant–microbe interactions and rhizobacterial colonization.

Experimental evolution of Bacillus subtilis on Arabidopsis thaliana roots reveals fast adaptation and improved root colonization [PDF]
Summary: Bacillus subtilis is known to promote plant growth and protect plants against disease. B. subtilis rapidly adapts to Arabidopsis thaliana root colonization, as evidenced by improved root colonizers already after 12 consecutive transfers between ...

The potential of Pseudomonas fluorescens SBW25 to produce viscosin enhances wheat root colonization and shapes root-associated microbial communities in a plant genotype-dependent manner in soil systems [PDF]
Microorganisms interact with plant roots through colonization of the root surface, i.e., the rhizoplane or the surrounding soil, i.e., the rhizosphere. Beneficial rhizosphere bacteria such as Pseudomonas spp.

Study on Simultaneous Colonization of Rhizophagus irregularis and Serendipita indica in Barley under Different P Levels Using Monoclonal Antibody [PDF]
Introduction Recent studies show that most crops and horticultural plants can form symbiosis with the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) and the endophytic Serendepita indica, simultaneously.

Genome-wide identification of bacterial plant colonization genes. [PDF]
Diverse soil-resident bacteria can contribute to plant growth and health, but the molecular mechanisms enabling them to effectively colonize their plant hosts remain poorly understood. We used randomly barcoded transposon mutagenesis sequencing (RB-TnSeq)
