This study evaluates the effectiveness of combining Azospirillum brasilense with cytidine or seedling exudate to improve pea drought resilience, finding that cytidine enhances drought tolerance and rhizosphere diversity.

This study shows that combining Azospirillum brasilense with tomato exudate or cytidine reduces disease severity in tomato plants infected with Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato DC3000.

This study evaluates fluorescent reporters driven by the nifH promoter in legume-rhizobia symbiosis, identifying sfYFP and sfCFP as reliable tools for quantifying nodulation traits and introducing a deep learning pipeline for automated analysis.

The paper describes a crowdsourcing initiative, CACAO, where undergraduates contribute gene function annotations to the Gene Ontology, enhancing coverage and enabling community-driven curation.
