The role of lipo-chitooligosaccharides (LCOs) as signaling molecules that mediate the
establishment of symbiotic relationships between fungi and plants is being redefined. New …

Lipo-chitooligosaccharides (LCOs) are signaling molecules produced by rhizobial bacteria
that trigger the nodulation process in legumes, and by some fungi that also establish …

Lipo-chitooligosaccharides (LCOs) are historically known for their role as microbial-derived
signaling molecules that shape plant symbiosis with beneficial rhizobia or mycorrhizal fungi …

Populus sp. is a developing feedstock for second-generation biofuel production. To ensure
its success as a sustainable biofuel source, it is essential to capitalize on the ability of …

Lipo‐chitooligosaccharides (LCO s) are microbial symbiotic signals that also influence root
growth. In Medicago truncatula, LCO s stimulate lateral root formation (LRF) synergistically …

Chitin is a structural polymer in many eukaryotes. Many organisms can degrade chitin to
defend against chitinous pathogens or use chitin oligomers as food. Beneficial …

Although lipo-chitooligosaccharides (LCOs) are important signal molecules for plant-
symbiont interactions, a number of reports suggest that LCOs can directly impact plant …

The arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) and the rhizobia-legume (RL) root endosymbioses are
established as a result of signal exchange in which there is mutual recognition of diffusible …

Short chain chitooligosaccharides (COs) are chitin derivative molecules involved in plant-
fungus signaling during arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) interactions. In host plants, COs …

Mycorrhizal fungi form mutualistic associations with the roots of most land plants and provide
them with mineral nutrients from the soil in exchange for fixed carbon derived from …
