Transcriptome Analyses of Barley Roots Inoculated with Novel Paenibacillus sp. and Erwinia gerundensis Strains Reveal Beneficial Early-Stage Plant-Bacteria Interactions.

ABSTRACT: Plant growth-promoting bacteria can improve host plant traits including nutrient uptake and metabolism and tolerance to biotic and abiotic stresses. Understanding the molecular basis of plant-bacteria interactions using dual RNA-seq analyses provides key knowledge of both host and bacteria simultaneously, leading to future enhancements of beneficial interactions. In this study, dual RNA-seq analyses were performed to provide insights into the early-stage interactions between barley seedlings and three novel bacterial strains (two Paenibacillus sp. strains and one Erwinia gerundensis strain) isolated from the perennial ryegrass seed microbiome. Differentially expressed bacterial and barley genes/transcripts involved in plant-bacteria interactions were identified, with varying
