Rhizosphere microbiology

An annotated selection of World Wide Web sites relevant to the topics in Environmental Microbiology

Lawrence P. Wackett¹

Rhizosphere microbiology and biological control

Go to:

http://www.ecol.kvl.dk/common/research/genmic/rhizosphere-microbiology-and-biological-control/index.php3

This research web page focuses on root colonization by Pseudomonas inoculants and production of antibiotics by rhizosphere strains.

Rhizosphere bacteria in forest soils devoid of actinorhizal plants

Go to:

http://ethesis.helsinki.fi/julkaisut/mat/bioti/vk/maunuksela/

This webpage provides a link to a thesis from the University of Helsinki.

Biodiversity of rhizosphere bacteria

Go to:

http://www.unine.ch/bota/lamun/ang/projects/face.html

This website provides information on a project focusing on bacterial communities associated with the rhizosphere of grasses with an emphasis on effects of elevated atmospheric carbon dioxide.

Research of the phytopathology group

Go to:

http://www.bio.uu.nl/~fytopath/research.htm

The research described here focuses on interactions between pathogenic and non-pathogenic microorganisms in the rhizosphere.

Molecular interactions in the rhizosphere

Go to:

http://rhizosphere.gsf.de/index.php

This webpage focuses on research in several areas: genomes of plants and microbes in the rhizosphere; specific plants and microbes interacting in the rhizosphere; chemical analysis of the interaction; mathematical models of the rhizosphere.

Rhizosphere congress

Go to:

http://www0.gsf.de/iboe/congress/index_2.html

This webpage provides some historical information about the rhizosphere concept.

Element dynamics in the rhizosphere

Go to:

http://www.montpellier.inra.fr/RetS/uk/axe1.htm

This webpage focuses on element fluxes amongst soil, microorganisms and plants. It deals with both nutrient elements and environmental pollutants.

Models for the interaction of plants and environment

Go to:

http://www.biologie.uni-hamburg.de/b-online/virtuallaboratory/Section-12.html

This website shows and describes visual models that include the rhizosphere of plants.

The quorum sensing site

Go to:

http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/quorum/

Quorum sensing is increasingly being found to aid bacterial survival in many environments including the rhizosphere.

Rhizosphere and symbiosis

Go to:

http://www.montpellier.inra.fr/RetS/uk/index.htm

The rhizosphere is a zone where symbiosis occurs at several levels and this webpage contains links to research on this topic.
