Other claims from this paper (7)
- Observation Ergothioneine was extracted from bacterial cells and wheat plant tissues.
- Observation Bacterial cells in nutrient-rich medium contained on average 0.32 μM EGT after day 7.
- Observation Bacteria under nutrient limitation produced on average 0.27 μM EGT.
- Method / resource Fluorescent confocal microscopy showed bacterial colonization on wheat.
- Observation After root inoculation, S. coelicolor inhabited wheat roots, shoots and internodes.
- Observation S. coelicolor-associated wheat plants produced EGT in planta.
- Recommendation Authors suggest rhizosphere colonization as an alternative route to increase crop protein concentration.
