Plant-microbe interactions dynamically affect plant growth, health, and development. The
mechanisms underpinning these associations are—to a large extent—mediated by …

To date, an understanding of how plant growth-promoting bacteria facilitate plant growth has
been primarily based on studies of individual bacteria interacting with plants under different …

Medicinal plants and their bioactive molecules are integral components of nature and have
supported the health of human societies for millennia. However, the prevailing view of …

Allelopathic activity of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) has previously been associated with the
production of phenolic acids and flavonoids (PAF), benzoxazinones (BXZs) and …

Plant roots are functionally heterogeneous in cellular architecture, transcriptome profile,
metabolic state, and microbial immunity. We hypothesized that axial differentiation may also …

Plants impact the development of their rhizosphere microbial communities. It is yet unclear to
what extent the root cap and specific root zones contribute to microbial community assembly …

Plant associated microbiomes are known to confer fitness advantages to the host.
Understanding how plant factors including biochemical traits influence host associated …

Laticifers are hypothesized to mediate both plant–herbivore and plant–microbe interactions.
However, there is little evidence for this dual function. We investigated whether the major …

Plant-soil-microbe interactions are crucial for driving rhizosphere processes that contribute
to metabolite turnover and nutrient cycling. With the increasing frequency and severity of …

The plant rhizosphere is regarded as a microbial hotspot due to a wide array of root
exudates. These root exudates comprise diverse organic compounds such as phenolic …
