Soybeans pass on beneficial microbes

to the next generation.

Professor Yeon-Sik Kwak's research team in the Department of Plant Medicine at Gyeongsang National University

among the microbes that soybeans take up through their flowers

that beneficial microbes are selected in the pods and

revealed the principle by which they are delivered to the seeds.

The selected microbial community

suppressed soybean blight and

increased tolerance to salt stress.

Crops resistant to pathogens and environmental stress,

the answer was found in tiny microbes.

The study results were published in the international journal of microbial ecology

《The ISME Journal》was published in.
