This project investigates the role of the root microbiome, specifically arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and rhizobia, in enhancing plant nutrition through metal micronutrient exchange. By understanding metal transport mechanisms, the project aims to improve nitrogen fixation and increase crop yields and metal content in f…
Plant nutrition is essential to understand any physiological process in plant biology, as well as to improve crops, and agricultural practices.
The root microbiome plays an important role in plant nutrition.
The best characterized microbiome elements are two plant endosymbionts: arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) and rhizobia. AMF are responsible for delivering most of the mineral nutrients required by the host plant.
Similarly, rhizobia in legume nodules provide the vast majority of the nitroge…
