TL;DR: Novel knowledge and gaps on PGPR modes of action and signals are addressed, recent progress on the links between plant morphological and physiological effects induced by PGPR are highlighted, and the importance of taking into account the size, diversity, and gene expression patterns of PGPR assemblages in the rhizosphere to better understand their impact on plant growth and functioning is shown.

TL;DR: It is argued that this so-called functional core microbiota encompasses microbial vehicles carrying replicators with essential functions for holobiont fitness, which builds up from enhanced horizontal transfers of replicators as well as from ecological enrichment of their vehicles.

TL;DR: R Reverse transcription-PCR data indicated that these genes are organized in an operonic structure, and an additional Tat (twin-arginine translocation) signal peptide sequence was detected at the N terminus of the protein encoded by aoxA, strongly suggesting that the Tat pathway is involved in the translocation of the arsenite oxidase to its known periplasmic location.

TL;DR: In-depth exploration of the genome of the β-proteobacterium Herminiimonas arsenicoxydans with regard to physiology, genetics, and proteomics revealed that it possesses heretofore unsuspected mechanisms for coping with arsenic.

TL;DR: It is shown that the genetic distance between rhizobacterial communities correlated significantly with the phylogenetic distance (derived from chloroplastic sequences) between Poaceae genotypes, indicating that eukaryotic host's evolutionary history can be a significant factor shaping directly the assembly and composition of its associated bacterial compartment.
