Plant roots associate with diverse microbes (including bacteria, fungi, archaea, protists, and
viruses) collectively called the root-associated microbiome. Among them, mycorrhizal fungi …

BACKGROUND Although plants are dependent on the capture of a number of elemental
nutrients from the soil, the principal nutrients that limit plant productivity are nitrogen (N) and …

Arbuscular mycorrhiza (AM) is a widespread symbiosis between roots of the majority of land
plants and Glomeromycotina fungi. AM is important for ecosystem health and functioning as …

This review focuses on the evolution of plant hormone signaling pathways. Like the
chemical nature of the hormones themselves, the signaling pathways are diverse. Therefore …

Strigolactones are a structurally diverse class of plant hormones that control many aspects of
shoot and root growth. Strigolactones are also exuded by plants into the rhizosphere, where …

In flowering plants, strigolactones (SLs) have dual functions as hormones that regulate
growth and development, and as rhizosphere signaling molecules that induce symbiosis …

Plants have lived in close association with arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi for over 400
million years. Today, this endosymbiosis occurs broadly in the plant kingdom where it has a …

Plants associate with beneficial arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi facilitating nutrient acquisition.
Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi produce chitooligosaccharides (COs) and lipo …

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi form associations with most land plants and facilitate nutrient
uptake from the soil, with the plant receiving mineral nutrients from the fungus and in return …
