Ensuring plant resilience to drought and phosphorus (P) stresses is crucial to support global
food security. The phytobiome, shaped by selective pressures, harbors stress-adapted …

Microalgae are used in various biotechnological processes, such as biofuel production due
to their high biomass yields, agriculture as biofertilizers, production of high-value-added …

Rhizobia are soil bacteria that can establish a nitrogen-fixing symbiosis with legume plants.
As horizontally transmitted symbionts, the life cycle of rhizobia includes a free-living phase in …

Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) are members of the plant rhizomicrobiome
that enhance plant growth and stress resistance by increasing nutrient availability to the …

Symbiotic mutualisms provide critical ecosystem services throughout the world.
Anthropogenic stressors, however, may disrupt mutualistic interactions and impact …

This review provides a comprehensive analysis of the intricate architecture of bacterial
sensing systems, with a focus on signal transduction mechanisms and their critical roles in …

Plant hosts can gain significant growth benefits from symbiosis with microbes, but these
benefits could be threatened by divergent fitness interests among partners. Here, we …

Invasions by eukaryotes dependent on environmentally acquired bacterial mutualists are
often limited by the ability of bacterial partners to survive and establish free-living …
