Offer Description

Arbuscular mycorrhiza (AM) symbiosis occurs in the ‘rhizosphere’ and, prior to physical contact, plants and AMF release a bouquet of diffusible molecules into the soil to attract their symbiotic partner and initiate cellular reprogramming for infection. Perception of signaling molecules and cellular transmission of this information require plant and fungal receptor proteins to activate signaling cascades that enable launching the appropriate symbiosis responses. Therefore, the main objective of the project is to unravel how plant immune signaling is fine-tunned in tetraploid wheat-AMF interaction to integrate multiple signals and initiate a successful immunity or an AM symbiosis program.
