Project description:RNASeq of roots from two genotypes of Arabidopsis thaliana plants, Col-0 and myb36-2 grown axenically or with a 41 member bacterial Synthetic Community (SynCom) to explore the interaction between the root diffusion barriers and the root microbiome.
Project description:Comparison of gene expression profiles of Caenorhabditis elegans fed a complex microbiota (either a synthetic community or in soil) or a standard Escherichia coli diet. We find that immune and digestion genes are up-regulated in C. elegans that were fed a complex microbiota.
Project description:This study evaluates whether different pre-treatments (+Pi, -Pi and +Phi) influences the phosphate starvation transcriptional response triggered by a bacterial synthetic community in Arabidopsis seedlings.
