Journal ArticleDOI
Salt tolerance of barley induced by the root endophyte Piriformospora indica is associated with a strong increase in antioxidants
Helmut Baltruschat,József Fodor,B.D. Harrach,E. Niemczyk,Balázs Barna,Gábor Gullner,Anna Janeczko,Karl-Heinz Kogel,Patrick Schäfer,Ildikó Schwarczinger,Alga Zuccaro,Andrzej Skoczowski +11 more
TL;DR: Findings suggest that antioxidants might play a role in both inherited and endophyte-mediated plant tolerance to salinity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plant root-microbe communication in shaping root microbiomes.
TL;DR: Current knowledge on the formation and maintenance of root-associated microbial communities and plant– microbe interactions with a particular emphasis on the effect of microbe–microbe interactions on the shape of microbial communities at the root surface are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
The root endophytic fungus Piriformospora indica requires host cell death for proliferation during mutualistic symbiosis with barley
Sachin Deshmukh,Ralph Hückelhoven,Patrick Schäfer,Jafargholi Imani,Monica Sharma,Michael Weiss,Frank Waller,Karl-Heinz Kogel +7 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that the endophyte interferes with the host cell death program to form a mutualistic interaction with plants and increase fungal colonization with root tissue maturation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bipolaris sorokiniana, a cereal pathogen of global concern: cytological and molecular approaches towards better control‡
Jagdish Kumar,Patrick Schäfer,Ralph Hückelhoven,Gregor Langen,Helmut Baltruschat,Elke Stein,Subramaniam Nagarajan,Karl-Heinz Kogel +7 more
TL;DR: The taxonomy and worldwide distribution are reviewed, as well as strategies to counteract the disease as an emerging threat to cereal production systems and the current understanding of the cytological and molecular aspects of the interaction of the fungus with its cereal hosts are reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Broad-Spectrum Suppression of Innate Immunity Is Required for Colonization of Arabidopsis Roots by the Fungus Piriformospora indica
Sophie Jacobs,Bernd Zechmann,Alexandra Molitor,Marco Trujillo,Elena Petutschnig,Volker Lipka,Karl-Heinz Kogel,Patrick Schäfer +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that P. indica is confronted with a functional root immune system and that its ability to suppress host immunity is compromised by various microbe associated molecular patterns (MAMPs).
