How Plants Obtain Nitrogen by Supplying Iron to Symbiotic Bacteria

A recent study on leguminous plants has uncovered the role of IRON MAN (IMA) peptides in facilitating the collection of iron into root nodules during rhizobial symbiosis. This process is vital for nitrogen fixation, a key aspect of plant growth and nitrogen homeostasis. Credit: SciTechDaily.comIMA peptides in legumes enhance iron acquisition for nitrogen fixation, offering insights into sustainable agriculture practices.Leguminous plants have a mechanism (rhizobial symbiosis) to efficiently acquire nitrogen, which is an…

New Type of Symbiotic Relationship Discovered Between Algae and Fungi

Alcobioses are common in urban areas, too. Lyomyces sambuci, pictured here, is abundant on elder bark. Credit: Institute of Botany, Czech Academy of SciencesResearchers from the Institute of Botany, Czech Academy of Sciences, described the symbiotic relationship between fungi and algae which science has largely overlooked until now. The coexistence of algae and corticioid basidiomycetes, which are common in temperate forests, has been given a new name: alcobiosis.Jan Vondrák of the Department of Taxonomy, Institute of…
