Directed Evolution of Plant‐Associated Bacteria Enhances Plant Holobiont Stress Tolerance

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant stress responses are shaped by both the plant genome and its associated microbial communities, which together form the plant holobiont. Given the rapid adaptive potential of plant‐associated microbes, we hypothesised that directed evolution under selective pressure can accelerate the development of holobiont‐level stress tolerance ...

Effect of Seed Position on Parental Plant of Kroenleinia grusonii (Hildm.) Lodé. and Echinocactus platyacanthus Link & Otto on Seed Germination at High Temperatures

Plant Species Biology, Volume 41, Issue 4, July 2026.
Kroenleinia grusonii and Echinocactus platyacanthus are native and endemic to Mexico, both have ecological and economic importance and are endangered species. The position in which seeds develop on the parental plant can have effects on physical and physiological characteristics. Seed position on parental plant of Kroenleinia spp. and Echinocactus spp.

Non‐Additive Interactions Between Multiple Mutualists and Host Plant Genotype Simultaneously Promote Increased Plant Growth and Pathogen Defence

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 7, Page 4134-4151, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Understanding the impact of microbial interactions on plants is critical for maintaining healthy native ecosystems and sustainable agricultural practices. Despite the reality that genetically distinct plants host multiple microbes of large effect in the field, it remains unclear the extent to which host genotypes modulate non‐additive ...
