As one of the major components of soil microbial communities, fungiform close relationships with plants at the inter-rhizosphere, especially arbuscular mycorrhizae, which can form symbiotic relationships with most higher plants. arbuscular mycorrhizae are distributed in almost all terrestrial ecosystems.

There is much evidence that mycorrhizal fungi and mycorrhizal plants have a mutualistic system of perception, and that mycorrhizal plants have substances in their root secretions that can be recognized by mycorrhizal fungi. In the mycorrhizal fungal plant in the dialogue between mycorrhizal fungi and plants, the root secretions produced by plants provide a rich source of carbon for the growth and reproduction of mycorrhizal fungi. Mycorrhizal fungi can also help plants to improve their nutrition, such as through the use of mycorrhizal fungi. Mycorrhizal fungi can also help plants improve nutrition, such as by releasing inorganic phosphorus or hydrolyzing organic phosphorus to improve plant uptake and utilization of phosphorus and resist various biotic and abiotic stresses.

What We Offer

Studying the structure of microbial community composition in inter-rhizosphere soil of different roots is important to gain insight into root-microbe interactions. Lifeasible used a high-throughput sequencing platform to analyze the fungal community structure of inter-rhizosphere soil of various plants. In addition, we also provide plant rhizosphere redox potential (ORP) monitoring. We provide a comprehensive service for plant inter-root fungal research.

Endophytic fungi are fungi that live inside the tissues of healthy plant roots, stems, leaves, and other organs. Lifeasible can also provide technical services related to endophytic fungi, including but not limited to endophytic fungal isolation, strain identification, and analysis of major taxa.

We Do Better

At the inter-root interface, plant, soil and microorganism are a continuum with strong dependencies among the three and complex biochemical processes involved. Lifeasible' goal is to use a variety of technical tools and provide a full range of technical services to target group objects for analysis and help our clients understand the role and position of the target object in the overall inter-root process. We currently use a combination of stable isotope probe technology and molecular ecology techniques that for our clients In situ study of plant-soil-fungal relationships provides a new way of thinking. The method not only accurately demonstrates the fate of photosynthetic carbon in plants, but also provides an integrated view of the interrelationship between inter-root biology and soil microbes and their ecological functions.
