Piriformospora indica root colonization triggers local and systemic root responses and inhibits secondary colonization of distal roots. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Piriformosporaindica is a basidiomycete fungus colonizing roots of a wide range of higher plants, including crop plants and the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana. Previous studies have shown that P.

Deciphering bacterial mechanisms of root colonization. [PDF]
Environ Microbiol Rep, 2021 Summary Bacterial colonization of the rhizosphere is critical for the establishment of plant–bacteria interactions that represent a key determinant of plant health and productivity. Plants influence bacterial colonization primarily through modulating the composition of their root exudates and mounting an innate immune response.

Root colonization by beneficial rhizobacteria. [PDF]
FEMS Microbiol Rev, 2023 Abstract Rhizosphere microbes play critical roles for plant’s growth and health. Among them, the beneficial rhizobacteria have the potential to be developed as the biofertilizer or bioinoculants for sustaining the agricultural development.

Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi Increase Pb Uptake of Colonized and Non-Colonized Medicago truncatula Root and Deliver Extra Pb to Colonized Root Segment [PDF]
Microorganisms, 2021 Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi establish symbiosis and improve the lead (Pb) tolerance of host plants. The AM plants accumulate more Pb in roots than their non-mycorrhizal counterparts. However, the direct and long-term impact of AM fungi on plant Pb uptake has been rarely reported.

Measurements of Root Colonized Bacteria Species
BIO-PROTOCOL, 2021 Root-associated bacteria are able to influence plant fitness and vigor. A key step in understanding the belowground plant-bacteria interactions is to quantify root colonization by the bacteria of interest. Probably, genetic engineering with fluorescence markers is the most powerful way to monitor bacterial strains in plant.

Assessing fungal root colonization for plant improvement [PDF]
Plant Signaling & Behavior, 2009 Fungal endophytes display a broad range of symbiotic interactions with their host plants. Current studies on their biology, diversity and benefits are unravelling their high relevance on plant adaptation to environmental stresses. Implementation of such properties may open new perspectives in agriculture and forestry.

Rhizobium determinants of rhizosphere persistence and root colonization. [PDF]
ISME JAbstract Bacterial persistence in the rhizosphere and colonization of root niches are critical for the establishment of many beneficial plant–bacteria interactions including those between Rhizobium leguminosarum and its host legumes. Despite this, most studies on R. leguminosarum have focused on its symbiotic lifestyle as an endosymbiont

Dialogues of root-colonizing biocontrol pseudomonads [PDF]
European Journal of Plant Pathology, 2007 Among biocontrol agents that are able to suppress root diseases caused by fungal pathogens, root-colonizing fluorescent pseudomonads have received particular attention because many strains of these bacteria trigger systemic resistance in host plants and produce antifungal compounds and exoenzymes.
