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

Eine Genomanalyse zeigte das Vorkommen zahlreicher Terpensynthasen des bakteriellen Typs in Springschwänzen. Vier Enzyme aus Sinella curviseta wurden funktionell charakterisiert, was zur Isolierung mehrerer Verbindungen führte, darunter Sinellenether, der erste identifizierte Diterpenether einer Terpensynthase mit einem neuartigen Grundgerüst.

A genome analysis revealed the presence of many bacterial‐type terpene synthases in springtails. Four enzymes from Sinella curviseta were functionally characterised, resulting in the isolation of several compounds including sinellene ether, the first diterpene ether identified from a terpene synthase that represents a novel skeleton.

Seedling weeding in tropical forest restoration may not be universally needed across all species. Its cost may not be affordable for private landowners. This research shows that all landowners who wish to plant trees on their lands should be encouraged to do so—weeding or no weeding.
