🌍This has big implications for Mediterranean ecosystems worldwide. As climate shifts, the when of drought during post-fire recovery could determine which plants survive, and ultimately reshape entire plant communities for the following years. (6/6)

Uncovering the dominant role of root metabolism in shaping #rhizosphere metabolome under drought in tropical rainforest plants: Gina Hildebrand et al. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0048969723043127
"as roots respond to drought, their microbial communities adapt, reinforcing the #DroughtTolerance of the plant. These species-specific interactions systematically change with the root #metabolome under drought conditions."
Plant-soil-microbe interactions play a crucial role in processes that take place in the soil directly around plant roots, or the rhizosphere, and these processes contribute to nutrient cycling and metabolite turnover in the environment. Amid the water scarcity that occurs with climate change, plants are forced to adapt through a range of processes that impact soil organic matter turnover in the rhizosphere.

A newly identified protein confers #droughttolerance to plants https://nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/nph.19022 https://phys.org/news/2023-06-newly-protein-confers-drought-tolerance.html
Researchers led by Núria Sánchez-Coll, CSIC researcher at the Center for Research in Agricultural Genomics (CRAG), have characterized for the first time the function of AtMC3, a protein of the metacaspase family that is involved in drought tolerance in the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana.
