Journal ArticleDOI
The Hidden World within Plants: Ecological and Evolutionary Considerations for Defining Functioning of Microbial Endophytes
Pablo R. Hardoim,Leonard S. van Overbeek,Gabriele Berg,Anna Maria Pirttilä,Stéphane Compant,Andrea Campisano,Matthias Döring,Angela Sessitsch +7 more
TL;DR: This review addresses the concept of endophytism, considering the latest insights into evolution, plant ecosystem functioning, and multipartite interactions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Properties of bacterial endophytes and their proposed role in plant growth.
TL;DR: The modulation of ethylene levels in plants by bacterially produced 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate deaminase is a key trait that enables interference with the physiology of the host plant, and this mechanism leads to the concept of 'competent' endophytes, defined asendophytes that are equipped with genes important for maintenance of plant-endophyte associations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dynamics of Seed-Borne Rice Endophytes on Early Plant Growth Stages
TL;DR: Assessment of the endophytic bacterrial community of surface-sterilized rice seeds, encompassing two consecutive rice generations, showed that soil type is a major effector of the bacterial endophytes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rice root-associated bacteria: insights into community structures across 10 cultivars
Pablo R. Hardoim,Pablo R. Hardoim,Fernando Dini Andreote,Barbara Reinhold-Hurek,Angela Sessitsch,Leonard S. van Overbeek,Jan Dirk van Elsas +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of plant genotype, soil type and nutrient use efficiency on the composition of different bacterial communities associated with rice roots were investigated using PCR, followed by denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (PCR-DGGE).
Journal ArticleDOI
Endophytic Colonization of Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) by a Novel Competent Bacterial Endophyte, Pseudomonas putida Strain P9, and Its Effect on Associated Bacterial Communities
Fernando Dini Andreote,Fernando Dini Andreote,Welington Luiz Araújo,João Lúcio de Azevedo,Jan Dirk van Elsas,Ulisses Nunes da Rocha,Leonard S. van Overbeek +6 more
TL;DR: Strain P9 is an avid colonizer of potato plants, competing with microbial populations indigenous to the potato phytosphere, and has an important and previously unexplored effect on plant-associated communities.
