TL;DR: A functional genomic in vivo expression technology (IVET) screen provided insight into genes used by P. fluorescens in its natural environment and an improved understanding of the ecological significance of diversity within this species.
Journal ArticleDOI
Harnessing rhizosphere microbiomes for drought-resilient crop production
Franciska T. de Vries,Franciska T. de Vries,Robert I. Griffiths,Christopher Knight,O. Nicolitch,Alex Williams +5 more
TL;DR: The need for improved mechanistic understanding of the complex feedbacks between plants and microbes during, and particularly after, drought is highlighted and is central to making crop production more resilient to the authors' future climate.
Journal ArticleDOI
The curious case of the hydrated proton.
TL;DR: Recent progress in understanding the solvation and transport properties of the hydrated excess proton is discussed, based on results obtained from reactive molecular dynamics simulations using the multistate empirical valence bond (MS-EVB) methodology.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the accuracy of the MB-pol many-body potential for water: Interaction energies, vibrational frequencies, and classical thermodynamic and dynamical properties from clusters to liquid water and ice
Sandeep K. Reddy,Shelby C. Straight,Pushp Bajaj,C. Huy Pham,Marc Riera,Daniel R. Moberg,Miguel A. Morales,Christopher Knight,Andreas W. Götz,Francesco Paesani +9 more
TL;DR: The MB-pol many-body potential has recently emerged as an accurate molecular model for water simulations from the gas to the condensed phase as mentioned in this paper, which has been systematically assessed across the three phases of water through extensive comparisons with experimental data and high level ab initio calculations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hydroxide Solvation and Transport in Anion Exchange Membranes
Chen Chen,Chen Chen,Ying-Lung Steve Tse,Gerrick E. Lindberg,Christopher Knight,Gregory A. Voth +5 more
TL;DR: A new multiscale reactive molecular dynamics model for hydroxide in aqueous solution is developed and it is found that a relatively even separation of the rigid side chains produces a continuous overlapping region for Hydroxide transport that is made up of the first hydration shell of the tethered cationic groups.
