In the Internet era, communicating with friends and colleagues via social networks
constitutes a significant proportion of our daily activities. Similarly animals and plants also …

Most land plants can establish symbiosis with arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi to increase
fitness to environmental challenges. The development of AM symbiosis is controlled by …

Soils contain a multitude of fungi with vastly divergent lifestyles ranging from saprotrophic to
mutualistic and pathogenic. The recent release of many fungal genomes has led to …

Knowledge of processes involved in adventitious rooting is important to improve both
fundamental understanding of plant physiology and the propagation of numerous plants …

Flowering plants display the highest diversity among plant species and have notably shaped
terrestrial landscapes. Nonetheless, the evolutionary origin of their unprecedented …

The molecular mechanisms underlying mycorrhizal symbioses, the most ubiquitous and
impactful mutualistic plant–microbial interaction in nature, are largely unknown. Through …

To establish and maintain a symbiotic relationship, the ectomycorrhizal fungus Laccaria
bicolor releases mycorrhiza‐induced small secreted proteins (MiSSPs) into host roots. Here …

In plants, auxin-mediated responses are regulated by diverse proteins. One such class of
proteins, ie GH3, is involved in the conjugation of IAA to amino acids and provides a …

Ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi establish symbiosis with roots of most trees of boreal and
temperate ecosystems and are major drivers of nutrient fluxes between trees and the soil …

In ectomycorrhiza, root penetration and colonization of the intercellular space by symbiotic
hyphae is thought to rely on the mechanical force that results from hyphal tip growth …
