How does a single plant cell tell symbiont from pathogen?
We show that the Symbiotic Determinant 1 of NFR1 evolved to facilitate nitrogen-fixing symbiotic signalling.

We found something interesting in the evolution of plant microbiota. It is under review and we published the preprint today. Avi Bograd from my lab analyzed the genomes of 38,912 bacteria and identified a clear depletion of all MGE types in plant-associated bacteria vs. non-plant associated bacteria
