This is going to be a great plant session at #JGI2024@prof-gozde.bsky.social@caltech.edu@jgi.doe.gov
Rhizosphere Engineering of Biocontrol Agents Enriches Soil Microbial Diversity and Effectively Controls Root-Knot Nematodes -in Microbial Ecology Bacillus velezensis (VB7) + Trichoderma koningiopsis (TK) link.springer.com/article/10.1...
The root-knot nematode (RKN) causes significant yield loss in tomatoes. Understanding the interaction of biocontrol agents (BCAs)-nematicides-soil microbiomes and RKNs is essential for enhancing the e...
Superb microfluidics setup in PNAS from Bin Ma group to follow daily changes in B.subtilis colonization on the roots Dynamic in situ detection in iRhizo-Chip reveals diurnal fluctuations of Bacillus subtilis in the rhizosphere www.pnas.org/doi/suppl/10...
Tim George was elected as President of the society in Leipzig and has appointed Hannah Schneider as Executive Secretary and Charlotte White as Engagement Officer. We thank the outgoing team for all their hard work to raise the profile of the society. #RootResearch#Roots#Rhizosphere 🧪
Question for you on this, in general would you think B. subtilis is more easily isolated from the rhizosphere or from bulk soil like this work?
to eight undersown species. They find that increasing plant diversity strengthens positive associations within the rhizosphere soil microbial community in relation to negative associations. #Botany#PlantScience
Plant diversity drives positive microbial associations in the rhizosphere enhancing carbon use efficiency in agricultural soils (OA) https://botany.fyi/veiydu Domeignoz-Horta et al implement a diversity gradient by intercropping undersown species with barley in a large field trial, ranging from one
