Although research on plant growth promoting bacteria began in the 1950s, basic and
applied research on bacteria improving use of phosphorus (P) continues to be a priority …

Phosphorus is an essential macronutrient for plant growth and development. Root system
architecture (RSA) affects a plant's ability to obtain phosphate, the major form of phosphorus …

The concept of a root economics space (RES) is increasingly adopted to explore root trait
variation and belowground resource‐acquisition strategies. Much progress has been made …

The identity of the dominant root-associated microbial symbionts in a forest determines the
ability of trees to access limiting nutrients from atmospheric or soil pools,, sequester carbon …

Plants live in biogeochemically diverse soils with diverse microbiota. Plant organs associate
intimately with a subset of these microbes, and the structure of the microbial community can …

Plant roots exhibit diverse root functional traits to enable soil phosphorus (P) acquisition,
including changes in root morphology, root exudation and mycorrhizal symbioses. Yet …

The microbiome plays an important role in shaping plant growth and immunity, but few plant
genes and pathways impacting plant microbiome composition have been reported. In …

Brazil's large land base is important for global food security but its high dependency on
inorganic phosphorus (P) fertilizer for crop production (2.2 Tg rising up to 4.6 Tg in 2050) is …

Reliance on ecosystem services instead of synthetic, non‐renewable inputs is increasingly
seen as key to achieving food security in an environmentally sustainable way. This process …

We previously reported on the strong symbiosis of AMF species (Rhizophagus irregularis
CD1) with the cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) which is grown worldwide. In current study, it …
