    Coumarin biosynthesis genes are required after foliar pathogen infection for the creation of a microbial soil-borne legacy that primes plants for SA-dependent defenses

    Plants deposit photosynthetically-fixed carbon in the rhizosphere, the thin soil layer directly around the root, thereby creating a hospitable environment for microbes. To manage the inhabitants of this nutrie...

    Soil-Borne Legacies of Disease in Arabidopsis thaliana

    The rhizosphere microbiome of plants is essential for plant growth and health. Recent studies have shown that upon infection of leaves with a foliar pathogen, the composition of the root microbiome is altered ...
