Beneficial Fungal Secretome and Synthetic Consortia to Improve Soybean Growth During Drought Stress
Beneficial endophytic fungi may improve crop stress tolerance through soil carbon storage, water and nutrient acquisition, and stress mitigation. Our goal was to build a naturally occurring fungal synthetic community (FunSynCom) to improve growth and drought resilience in soybeans. In this study, …
