This Research Topic will collect selected contributions from attendants of iMMM2023, the 6th International Molecular Mycorrhiza Meeting, held on 25th -27th September 2023 in Cambridge, UK and online.
Mycorrhizae, plant-fungal symbioses, which are widely distributed across terrestrial ecosystems, are critical to the evolution, ecology, and diversity of plants, fungi, and beyond. The 6th iMMM meeting was conceived as a space for scientists to share their research from different disciplines on the topics of mycorrhizal symbioses, with a particular focus on molecular and cellular aspects of fungal and plant mechanisms underpinning the formation of these ancient relationships which ensure plant nutrition and drive evolutionary processes.
This Research Topic provides a timely update on some of the latest advances and insights emerged in Cambridge. In particular, this Research Topic will collect contributions in the areas of fungal and plant signaling, regulation of root colonization, genomics and evolution, cellular and molecular aspects of mycorrhizal interactions, environmental control, symbiosis functioning, multiple interactions between plants, fungi and bacteria, technological advances and resources. The multidisciplinary approach of this Research Topic is of great value for anyone interested in the results of research on cellular and molecular aspects in both endo- and ectomycorrhizal symbioses.
Contributors are welcome to submit Original Research, Method and Review articles related to the topics covered in the iMMM2023 conference.
