Microorganisms produce and excrete a versatile array of metabolites with different physico-
chemical properties and biological activities. However, the ability of microorganisms to …

During the last decades, research on the function of volatile organic compounds focused
primarily on the interactions between plants and insects. However, microorganisms can also …

Plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) hold promising future for sustainable
agriculture. Here, we demonstrate a carotenoid producing halotolerant PGPR Dietzia …

C and N are the most important essential elements constituting organic compounds in
plants. The shoots and roots depend on each other by exchanging C and N through the …

Bacteria emit a large number of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) into the environment.
VOCs are species-specific and their emission depends on environmental conditions, such …

Microbial volatile organic compounds (MVOCs) are produced by a wide array of
microorganisms ranging from bacteria to fungi. A growing body of evidence indicates that …

Soil communities are diverse taxonomically and functionally. This ecosystem experiences
highly complex networks of interactions, but may also present functionally independent …

Abstract Background Bacterial volatile compounds (BVCs) are important mediators of
beneficial plant–bacteria interactions. BVCs promote above-ground plant growth by …

Secreted proteins and metabolites play diverse and critical roles in organismal and
organism–environment interactions. Volatile organic compounds (VOC) can travel far from …

Like most other eukaryotes, plants do not live alone but in close association with a diverse
microflora. These plant‐associated microbes contribute to plant health in many different …
