Journal ArticleDOI
Symbiotic Nitrogen Fixation and the Challenges to Its Extension to Nonlegumes
Florence Mus,Matthew B. Crook,Kevin Garcia,Amaya M. Garcia Costas,Barney A. Geddes,Evangelia D. Kouri,Ponraj Paramasivan,Min-Hyung Ryu,Giles E. D. Oldroyd,Philip S. Poole,Michael K. Udvardi,Christopher A. Voigt,Jean-Michel Ané,John W. Peters +13 more
TL;DR: In this article, a minireview highlights the fundamental advances in our understanding of biological nitrogen fixation in the context of a blueprint for expanding symbiotic nitrogen fixation to a greater diversity of crop plants through synthetic biology.
Journal ArticleDOI
The role of mycorrhizal associations in plant potassium nutrition
Kevin Garcia,Sabine Zimmermann +1 more
TL;DR: A model summarizing plant and fungal transport systems identified and hypothetically involved in K+ transport is proposed and some data related to benefits for plants provided by the improvement of K+ nutrition thanks to mycorrhizal symbioses are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Take a Trip Through the Plant and Fungal Transportome of Mycorrhiza
TL;DR: Recent progress on molecular players of membrane transport involved in nutritional exchanges between mycorrhizal plants and fungi are reviewed, from the transport proteins involved in sugar fluxes from plants towards fungi, to the uptake from the soil and exchange of nitrogen, phosphate, potassium, sulfate, and water.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biotrophic transportome in mutualistic plant-fungal interactions.
Leonardo Casieri,Nassima Ait Lahmidi,Joan Doidy,Claire Veneault-Fourrey,Aude Migeon,Laurent Bonneau,Pierre-Emmanuel Courty,Kevin Garcia,Maryse Charbonnier,Amandine Delteil,Annick Brun,Sabine Zimmermann,Claude Plassard,Daniel Wipf +13 more
TL;DR: The present review summary summarizes the current state of the art regarding transport systems in the two major forms of mycorrhiza, namely ecto- and arbuscular myCorrhiza.
Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular signals required for the establishment and maintenance of ectomycorrhizal symbioses
TL;DR: Current knowledge on the early and late signal exchanges between woody plants and ECM fungi is summarized, and future directions for decoding the molecular basis of the underground dance between trees and their favorite fungal partners are suggested.
