Researchers inoculated rapeseed plants with aof fungus that is known for its ability to combat pest insects. Utilizing the relationship between beneficial fungi and crop plants may introduce a new era of agriculture where the plant resilience is improved and the ecological footprint of traditional/chemical pesticides is minimized.
Researchers made a breakthrough by establishing an endophytic relationship between the fungus and rapeseed plants. The growth of the fungus in the plant tissue triggered a remarkable increase in flavonoid biosynthesis and compounds known for multiple plant benefits including antioxidant properties. Flavonoids produced by the rapeseed plant and renowned for their antioxidant properties and their role in UV protection, flower pigmentation, and herbivore deterrence, took center stage in the study’s results. Next, the researchers aim to find out how great of an impact this particular fungus has on plant resilience against environmental stressors and how it impacts crop quality.
According to the researchers, partnerships between organisms like the one unveiled in this study offer a glimpse into the future of agriculture where society strives to secure its food supply while minimizing the ecological footprint.
