Studying the interactions between Streptomyces bacteria and plant roots

In recent years it has become clear that actinomycete bacteria like Streptomyces species are not simply free-living soil bacteria. They also interact with plant roots and can colonise the rhizosphere and endosphere (inside the roots)
