Breaking through the dark side: microbial help for invading shady forests

Plant–microbe interactions are increasingly recognised as drivers of plant invasion and adaptation, via their capacity to modulate phenotypic plasticity. Although soil biota and plant–soil feedbacks are well studied in open or disturbed systems, their role in naturally resistant habitats – such as closed‐canopy fores...

Fungal Endophytes Are Associated with Improved Salinity Responses Across Quinoa Ecotypes

It is indicated that transferring fungal endophytes from halophytic ecotypes can significantly mitigate stress in sensitive genotypes, highlighting their potential for enhancing crop resilience in saline environments.

Warming reduces fungal endophyte dependency for establishment but amplifies stress-response gene expression in the Antarctic invader Poa annua

It is suggested that as Antarctic temperatures rise, P. annua may progressively decouple from its seed-borne fungal endophytes for establishment while retaining endophyte-amplified transcriptional responses to thermal and hydric stress.

Metagenomic insights into potential PET hydrolases from Antarctic soils and rhizospheres

A metagenomic analysis of soil and rhizosphere samples from the Antarctic vascular plants Deschampsia antarctica and Colobanthus quitensis is conducted, as sources of microbial enzymes with potential PET-hydrolytic activity, demonstrating the diversity of PET-hydrolase-like genes within Antarctic rhizosphere and soil m...
