Botany One on Nostr: The research reveals a molecular conversation happening between fungi and plants. ...
The research reveals a molecular conversation happening between fungi and plants. When Serendipita indica colonises plant roots, it produces small RNA molecules that act like precise biological signals. These fungal messages help regulate important plant processes, including how cells build their walls and respond to hormones. Most remarkably, the study shows these RNA molecules are actively transported into plant cells through specific cellular machinery,
