Research Sheds Light on Plant-Microbe Interactions and Auxin Hormone Effects. 5mo. Gazing out on a freshwater pond, you may see tiny green plants with oval shaped leaves floating in clusters.

The plant microbiome, consisting of diverse microbial communities associated with plant roots, leaves, and internal tissues, ...

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions (MPMI) publishes original, refereed research on the molecular biology and molecular genetics of pathological, symbiotic, and associative interactions of ...

Plant–microbe interactions underpin a wide array of processes critical to sustainable agriculture. Beneficial microbial communities associated with plants can enhance nutrient acquisition, ...

In the microscopic battlefield of plant-microbe interactions, plants are constantly fighting off invading bacteria. New research reveals just how clever these bacterial invaders can be.

To understand root-microbe interactions in detail, the researchers grew Arabidopsis thaliana and performed genomic, transcriptomic, and metabolomic analyses on root segments as small as two ...

Plants encounter microbes all the time, in the air, water, and soil. Some cause disease, others are neutral, but a few microbes promote plant health and growth. Beneficial bacteria, called ...
