Great review from @iamjawaharsingh.bsky.social, @oswaldovaldesl.bsky.social and @dromius.bsky.social in @cp-trendsplantsci.bsky.social -> Beyond nitrogen: phosphate controls root nodule symbiosis commitment
Beyond nitrogen: phosphate controls root nodule symbiosis commitment
While root nodule symbiosis (RNS) is primarily recognized for nitrogen acquisition, it is heavily influenced by phosphorus levels. In natural agroecosystems, nitrogen limitation frequently co-occurs with phosphorus deficiency, yet the role of phosphorus in modulating RNS remains understudied. Recent research in the legume Phaseolus vulgaris shows that phosphorus starvation suppresses nodulation by downregulating the master regulator gene Nodule Inception, mediated by phosphate-responsive factors such as Phosphate Starvation Response-Like 7. We propose an integrated model where phosphate signaling functions as a metabolic checkpoint, balancing carbon availability, nitrogen demand, and phosphorus status. Elucidating how phosphate scarcity rewires these symbiotic gene networks is essential for sustainable agriculture, allowing for the optimization of symbiotic nitrogen fixation in nutrient-depleted environments.

Grateful for the opportunity to work with two of my mentors on this Opinion in Trends in Plant Science. A meaningful milestone—now I can say I have an Opinion. @dromius.bsky.social @oswaldovaldesl.bsky.social @slcuplants.bsky.social
New Opinion with @iamjawaharsingh.bsky.social @oswaldovaldesl.bsky.social in @cp-trendsplantsci.bsky.social No Phosphate, less nitrogen fixing symbiosis and nodules, regardless of nitrogen status. PHR-L7 represses NIN in Common bean under phosphate starvation. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Congratulation to our colleagues for this amazing work!
So happy to see the latest preprint of the team out! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... The continuation of a long standing project started by @oswaldovaldesl.bsky.social in @jeanmichelane.bsky.social‘s lab. 1/7 🧵
Working with N. benth, Phytophthora, and Funneliformis, @dromius.bsky.social asks how plants treat a symbiont and pathogen in the *same* cell? The presence of arbuscular mycorrhiza fungi within a cell causes a local change in phospholipid signatures as the pathogen tries to invade. #2025ISMPMI
