EurekAlert!: Research unveils rhizobia strains effective against soybean root rot fungal pathogens A research team identified three rhizobia strains, Rhizobium sp. TZSR12C, Rhizobium sp. TZSR25B, and Bradyrhizobium sp.
Understanding the Context
TZSR41A, which effectively suppressed root rot fungal pathogens in soybeans ... A collaborative project has shed light on the fungal genetic determinants that explain why some fungi from the root microbiome can colonize roots and cause disease more efficiently than others. EurekAlert!: The effects of primer pairs, PCR conditions, and peptide nucleic acid clamps on plant root fungal diversity assessment The effects of primer pairs, PCR conditions, and peptide nucleic acid clamps on plant root fungal diversity assessment The fungal disease “oak root rot” (Armillaria mellea) has evolved with California oaks and other native plants. It is parasitic on oaks and other plant species, but if these plants are growing in our ...

Nature: Disruption of root carbon transport into forest humus stimulates fungal opportunists at the expense of mycorrhizal fungi Ectomycorrhizal fungi dominate the humus layers of boreal forests. They depend on carbohydrates that are translocated through roots, via fungal mycelium to microsites in the soil, wherein they forage ...
