Mutualism and parasitism: the yin and yang of plant symbiosesUta Paszkowski
Laboratory of Plant Genetics, University of Geneva, 1211 Geneva, Switzerland
Curr Opin Plant Biol 9:364-70. 2006..Thus, basic 'compatibility modules' appear to be partially conserved between mutualism and parasitism...
Maize mutants affected at distinct stages of the arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosisUta Paszkowski
Botanical Institute, University of Basel, 4056 Basel, Switzerland
Plant J 47:165-73. 2006..This trait segregates in a dominant fashion indicative of a gain-of-function mutation affecting the plant's control over restricting fungal colonization...
Contribution of the arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis to heavy metal phytoremediationVera Göhre
Department of Molecular Biology and Plant Biology, University of Geneva, 30 Quai Ernest Ansermet, CH 1211, Geneva 4, Switzerland
Planta 223:1115-22. 2006..Thus, plants in symbiosis with AM fungi have the potential to take up HM from an enlarged soil volume. In this review, we summarize current knowledge about the contribution of the AM symbiosis to phytoremediation of heavy metals...
A journey through signaling in arbuscular mycorrhizal symbioses 2006Uta Paszkowski
University of Geneva, Department of Plant Biology, 1211 Geneva, Switzerland
New Phytol 172:35-46. 2006..This review examines our current knowledge of signals and mechanisms involved in the establishment of AM symbioses...
Comparative transcriptomics of rice reveals an ancient pattern of response to microbial colonizationSonia Guimil
Laboratory of Plant Genetics, University of Geneva, 1211 Geneva, Switzerland
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 102:8066-70. 2005..We found that 34% of the mycorrhiza-associated rice genes were also associated with mycorrhiza in dicots, revealing a conserved pattern of response between the two angiosperm classes...
The growth defect of lrt1, a maize mutant lacking lateral roots, can be complemented by symbiotic fungi or high phosphate nutritionUta Paszkowski
Botanisches Institut der Universität Basel, Switzerland
Planta 214:584-90. 2002..Supply of high phosphate (1 microM) ameliorated the growth of lrt1 plants too, but less efficiently than the symbiosis did. Hence, arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi as well as phosphate functionally complemented the lrt1 mutation...
A draft sequence of the rice genome (Oryza sativa L. ssp. japonica)Stephen A Goff
Torrey Mesa Research Institute, Syngenta, 3115 Merryfield Row, San Diego, CA 92121, USA
Science 296:92-100. 2002..Assignment of candidate rice orthologs to Arabidopsis genes is possible in many cases. The rice genome sequence provides a foundation for the improvement of cereals, our most important crops...
Rice phosphate transporters include an evolutionarily divergent gene specifically activated in arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosisUta Paszkowski
Torrey Mesa Research Institute, San Diego, CA 92121, USA
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 99:13324-9. 2002..Thus, although cytological and physiological features of the arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis seem to be conserved, the molecular components may differ significantly between distantly related plant species...
Cereal mycorrhiza: an ancient symbiosis in modern agricultureRuairidh J H Sawers
Department of Plant Molecular Biology, University of Lausanne, Biophore Building, CH 1015 Lausanne, Switzerland
Trends Plant Sci 13:93-7. 2008....
