A Caulobacter hub taxon in the soybean root endosphere has a distinctive biofilm and engages in riboflavin-mediated mutualism with Bradyrhizobium

While it is well established that communities of microbes colonize the surfaces of plants as epiphytes and the interior plant tissues as endophytes, their ecological roles and colonization mechanisms remain under characterized. Members of the genus Caulobacter have emerged as hub taxa in epiphytic and endophytic microb...

Rethinking the soil core microbiome.

'core microbiome' should be reserved for microbial components explicitly demonstrated to be conserved across defined spatial, temporal, and environmental dimensions and linked to conserved ecological functions, while taxa selected for explanatory value are better described as 'explanatory subsets of taxa'.

A beneficial bacterium influences myo-inositol homeostasis to protect plants during drought

The results show that R4 colonization under drought conditions increases MI in the shoots, that this accumulation is associated with increased leaf water retention, and that INT1-mediated MI transport is required for this protection.
