Plant root rhizosphere interactions with mutualistic microbes are diverse and numerous,
having evolved over time in response to selective pressures on plants to attain anchorage …

Plants engage in mutualistic interactions with microbes that improve their mineral nutrient
supply. The most wide-spread symbiotic association is arbuscular mycorrhiza (AM), in which …

Legume plants enter two important endosymbioses–with soil fungi, forming phosphorus
acquiring arbuscular mycorrhiza (AM), and with nitrogen-fixing bacteria, leading to the …

Arbuscular mycorrhiza (AM), a type of plant‐fungal endosymbiosis, and nodulation, a
bacterial‐plant endosymbiosis, are the most ubiquitous symbioses on earth. Recent findings …

Plant root architecture is developmentally plastic in response to fluctuating nutrient levels in
the soil. Part of this developmental plasticity is the formation of dedicated root cells and …

Plants form beneficial symbioses with a variety of different microbes. Among these, the root
associated arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, ectomycorrhizal fungi, rhizobial, and …

Mycorrhizal Symbiosis: Ancient Signalling Mechanisms Co-opted Page 1 easily and there was
a museum to help. Such circumstances are exceptional. Species also vary geographically so …

Highlights•Host-dependent root colonization strategies are a common feature in broad
compatibility.•Gene family expansion and contraction correlate with fungal …

Abstract Development of mutualistic symbioses between ectomycorrhizal fungi and their
host trees involves multiple gene networks that are involved in a complex series of …
