This study examines the effects of strigolactone mutants in Sorghum bicolor on ecophysiology and symbioses, revealing trade-offs in parasitic plant resistance and mycorrhizal interactions.

The paper investigates how environmental changes and microbial treatments affect root exudates and fungal communities in a tropical tree, finding that soil microbial legacy and moisture influence metabolite diversity, while antimicrobial treatments alter metabolite composition and fungal community structure.

The paper demonstrates how a global pangenomic breeding network can develop and deploy drought and pest-resistant sorghum varieties for smallholder farmers in Niger.

This study identifies SNPs associated with root system architecture adaptations in sorghum under nitrogen and phosphorus deficiency using GWAS.

This study shows that soil microbiome changes under warming conditions significantly affect leaf heat tolerance in tropical plants, with fungal pathogens playing a key role.
