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

Nitrogen is abundant in the atmosphere but is generally the most limiting nutrient for plants.
The inability of many crop plants, such as cereals, to directly utilize freely available …

Plants encounter a myriad of microorganisms, particularly at the root–soil interface, that can
invade with detrimental or beneficial outcomes. Prevalent beneficial associations between …

Arbuscular mycorrhiza (AM) symbioses contribute to global carbon cycles as plant hosts
divert up to 20% of photosynthate to the obligate biotrophic fungi. Previous studies …

Plants associate with a wide range of microorganisms, with both detrimental and beneficial
outcomes. Central to plant survival is the ability to recognize invading microorganisms and …

Most land plants benefit from endosymbiotic interactions with mycorrhizal fungi, including
legumes and some nonlegumes that also interact with endosymbiotic nitrogen (N)-fixing …

The default mineral nutrient acquisition strategy of land plants is the symbiosis with
arbuscular mycorrhiza (AM) fungi. Research into the cell and developmental biology of AM …

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 …

Legumes form symbiotic associations with either nitrogen-fixing bacteria or arbuscular
mycorrhizal fungi. Formation of these two symbioses is regulated by a common set of …

Most flowering plants are able to form endosymbioses with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi. In
this mutualistic association, the fungus colonizes the root cortex and establishes elaborately …
