Diffusible signals from Azospirillum brasilense promote rice growth and induce distinct gene expression changes in plant roots
Plants form associations with diverse beneficial microbes, including arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi, rhizobia, and plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB). Research on legume-rhizobia symbiosis (LRS) and AM symbiosis has demonstrated that molecular communication between symbiotic partners is essential for initiatin...
