How do plant-associated microbiota regulate plant hormones, affecting their growth and development? This study reveals that bacterial isolates associated with the roots of Arabidopsis and rice can degrade the auxin indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), mitigat…plos.io
predicting that up to one million #animal and #plant species could soon be extinct.
Some #forests are already deemed “empty” in the wake of rampant #hunting and #poaching.
