Beneficial microbes going underground of root immunity
Abstract:
Plant roots interact with an enormous diversity of commensal, mutualistic, and pathogenic microbes, which poses a big challenge to roots to distinguish beneficial microbes from harmful ones. Plants can effectively...
Photosynthesis, the greatest and most fundamental source of power, remains largely untapped at a time when we face enormous challenges in terms of food, energy and climate change. So why...

Natural variation of YELLOW SEEDLING1 affects photosynthetic acclimation of Arabidopsis thaliana
Abstract:
Exploiting genetic variation for more efficient photosynthesis is an underexplored route towards new crop varieties. This study demonstrates the genetic dissection of higher plant photosynthesis efficiency down to the genomic...
