Microbial life in soil is fueled by dissolved organic matter (DOM) that leaches from the litter layer. It is well known that decomposer communities adapt to the available litter source, but it remains unclear if they functionally compete or synergistically address different litter types. Therefor...
Background
Wheat crown rot (WCR) caused by Fusarium spp. lacks durable, sustainable control. Engineering the rhizosphere with defined synthetic microbial communities (SynComs) offers a route to combined disease suppression and growth promotion. We aimed to build a cross-kingdom SynCom and e...
Gut environments harbour dense microbial ecosystems in which plasmids are widely distributed. Plasmids facilitate the exchange of genetic material among microorganisms while enabling the transfer of a diverse array of accessory functions. However, their precise impact on microbial community compo...
Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi-mediated differential composition and metabolism of rhizosphere microbial community. Using Syncoms containg Rhizophagus intraradices, Nigrospora oryzae and Talaromyces verruculosus.
