Explore the intricate symbiotic relationships between Lotus japonicus and mycorrhizal fungi in this 34-minute webinar presented by Paola Bonfante for the Society for Experimental Biology. Delve into the findings of her research paper, which examines the plant's responses to two isogenic lines of a mycorrhizal fungus that differ in the presence or absence of an endobacterium. Gain insights into how these microbial interactions affect plant biology and the complex interplay between plants, fungi, and bacteria in symbiotic associations. Learn about cutting-edge research in plant-microbe interactions and its implications for understanding plant ecology and potential agricultural applications.
