SymbioticExchange explores the molecular mechanisms of arbuscular mycorrhiza, a beneficial relationship between plants and fungi that enhances nutrient uptake. The project aims to identify key transporters involved in nutrient exchange, which could lead to improved crop breeding for food security.
Nutrient acquisition is the basis of life.
Arbuscular mycorrhiza (AM) symbiosis of plants with nutrient-delivering fungi is detected in the oldest land plant fossils and considered a prerequisite for plant life on land.
It is wide-spread in the plant kingdom and its secondary loss is the exception. AM improves plant nutrition, stress resistance and general plant performance.
Breeding AM-optimized crops has significant potential for improving food security and sustainable agriculture.
