Cambridge researchers combined live imaging and gene-expression mapping to show that fungal structures inside rice roots differ in lifespan and nutrient-transfer activity, complicating simple measures of beneficial colonisation.
A 56-hour microscopy sequence from Cambridge captures living mycorrhizal structures in motion, giving researchers a dynamic view of plant–fungal partnerships that static images could not previously provide.
Cambridge and Copenhagen researchers found that elevated carbon dioxide strengthened rice reliance on beneficial fungi for phosphorus, with the PT11 transporter helping coordinate changes in root nutrient acquisition.
