The fungal root endophyte Serendipita vermifera displays inter-kingdom synergistic beneficial effects with the microbiota in Arabidopsis thaliana and barley

L. K. Mahdi, S. Miyauchi, C. Uhlmann, R. Garrido-Oter, G. Langen, S. Wawra, Y. Niu, S. Robertson-Albertyn, D. Bulgarelli, J. E. Parker, A. Zuccaro

This study shows that the fungal endophyte Serendipita vermifera synergizes with bacterial microbiota to protect Arabidopsis and barley from pathogens, with benefits dependent on host and microbiota composition.
