Plants host a mesmerizing diversity of microbes inside and around their roots, known as the
microbiome. The microbiome is composed mostly of fungi, bacteria, oomycetes, and …

Iron (Fe) is an essential micronutrient that affects the growth and development of plants
because it participates as a cofactor in numerous physiological and biochemical reactions …

Plants benefit from associations with a diverse community of root-colonizing microbes.
Deciphering the mechanisms underpinning these beneficial services are of interest for …

Coumarins are a family of plant-derived secondary metabolites that are produced via the
phenylpropanoid pathway. In the past decade, coumarins have emerged as iron-mobilizing …

Plants shape their rhizosphere microbiome by secreting root exudates into the soil
environment. Recently, root-exuded coumarins were identified as novel players in plant …

Although abundant in soils, iron (Fe) is poorly bioavailable for plants. Improving Fe uptake in
crops, enabling them to grow in Fe-depleted soils, has become a major focal interest. The …

Plants develop responses to abiotic stresses, like Fe deficiency. Similarly, plants also
develop responses to cope with biotic stresses provoked by biological agents, like …

Glycosylation by uridine diphosphate-dependent glycosyltransferases (UGTs) in plants
contributes to the complexity and diversity of secondary metabolites. UGTs are generally …

Iron (Fe) is vital for plant growth. Plants balance the beneficial and toxic effects of this
micronutrient, and tightly control Fe uptake and allocation. Here, we review the role of the …

Iron (Fe) is an essential micronutrient for plant growth and development. Any defects in the
maintenance of Fe homeostasis will alter plant productivity and the quality of their derived …
