The wheat head blight pathogen <i>Fusarium graminearum</i> recruits facultative endohyphal bacteria from the soil, making the fungal-bacterial holobiont nitrogen-fixing and increasing the fungal pathogenicity
2022-06-27
Abstract excerpt
In nature, fungal endophytes often have facultative endohyphal bacteria. Can a fungal pathogen such as Fusarium graminearum , pathogenic on wheat, get facultative endohyphal bacteria from soil (FEB) and how does the FEB affect the fungal phenotype? We constructed a growth system/microcosm that allowed a molecularly well-studied F. graminearum isolate, PH-1, to grow through natural soil and then be re-isolated on...
