[HTML][HTML] Genetic determinants of endophytism in the Arabidopsis root mycobiome

F Mesny, S Miyauchi, T Thiergart, B Pickel… - Nature …, 2021 - nature.com
The roots of Arabidopsis thaliana host diverse fungal communities that affect plant health and
disease states. Here, we sequence the genomes of 41 fungal isolates representative of the …

[HTML][HTML] Critical assessment of metagenome interpretation: the second round of challenges

…, S Häußler, A Khaledi, F Maechler, F Mesny… - Nature …, 2022 - nature.com
Evaluating metagenomic software is key for optimizing metagenome interpretation and focus
of the Initiative for the Critical Assessment of Metagenome Interpretation (CAMI). The CAMI …

[HTML][HTML] A microbiota–root–shoot circuit favours Arabidopsis growth over defence under suboptimal light

S Hou, T Thiergart, N Vannier, F Mesny, J Ziegler… - Nature Plants, 2021 - nature.com
Bidirectional root–shoot signalling is probably key in orchestrating stress responses and
ensuring plant survival. Here, we show that Arabidopsis thaliana responses to microbial root …

V Raghavan, L Kraft, F Mesny… - Briefings in …, 2022 - academic.oup.com
Fantin Mesny is a PhD candidate studying plant–fungal interactions. Louis Kraft is a masters
student studying de novo transcriptome assembly. Venket Raghavan and Linda Rigerte are …

Co‐evolution within the plant holobiont drives host performance

F Mesny, S Hacquard, BPHJ Thomma - EMBO reports, 2023 - embopress.org
Plants interact with a diversity of microorganisms that influence their growth and resilience,
and they can therefore be considered as ecological entities, namely “plant holobionts,” rather …

[HTML][HTML] Genome-resolved metatranscriptomics reveals conserved root colonization determinants in a synthetic microbiota

N Vannier, F Mesny, F Getzke, G Chesneau… - Nature …, 2023 - nature.com
The identification of processes activated by specific microbes during microbiota colonization
of plant roots has been hampered by technical constraints in metatranscriptomics. These …

Microbiota-root-shoot axis modulation by MYC2 favours Arabidopsis growth over defence under suboptimal light

S Hou, T Thiergart, N Vannier, F Mesny, J Ziegler… - bioRxiv, 2020 - biorxiv.org
Bidirectional root-shoot signalling is likely key in orchestrating stress responses and
ensuring plant survival. Here we show that Arabidopsis thaliana responses to microbial root …

AMAPEC: accurate antimicrobial activity prediction for fungal effector proteins

F Mesny, BPHJ Thomma - bioRxiv, 2024 - biorxiv.org
Fungi typically occur in environments where numerous and diverse other microbes occur as
well, often resulting in fierce competition for nutrients and habitat. To support fungal fitness …

[PDF][PDF] Machine learning-assisted discovery of fungal effectors with antimicrobial activities

F Mesny, BPHJ Thomma - Prokaryotes, 2023 - sciforum.net
Aim:(1) Training a model to classify proteins into two groups (/), based ontheir sequence and
structural properties (X, Y, Z,...).(2) Use this model to discover new candidate antimicrobial …

[HTML][HTML] Trees, fungi and bacteria: tripartite metatranscriptomics of a root microbiome responding to soil contamination

E Gonzalez, FE Pitre, AP Pagé, J Marleau… - Microbiome, 2018 - Springer
Background One method for rejuvenating land polluted with anthropogenic contaminants is
through phytoremediation, the reclamation of land through the cultivation of specific crops. …
