Explore the fascinating world of bacterial chemotaxis in beneficial plant-microbe associations through this 28-minute webinar presented by Dr. Gladys Alexandre, Professor at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. Delve into the molecular mechanisms governing how motile bacteria sense and respond to environmental gradients, with a focus on beneficial soil bacteria that promote plant growth. Learn about cutting-edge approaches and improved tools for studying bacterial chemotaxis in real-time within the rhizosphere using model Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR). Discover the crucial role of bacterial motility and chemotaxis in successful root surface colonization and its implications for sustainable agriculture. Gain insights into how this research contributes to developing environmentally friendly practices that could help meet the global challenge of increasing food production for a growing population.
