Open AccessSeed tuber imprinting shapes the next-generation potato microbiome
Potato seed tubers are colonized and inhabited by soil-borne microbes, that can affect the performance of the emerging daughter plant in the next season. In this study, we investigated the intergenerational in...

Open AccessA tripartite bacterial-fungal-plant symbiosis in the mycorrhiza-shaped microbiome drives plant growth and mycorrhization
Plant microbiomes play crucial roles in nutrient cycling and plant growth, and are shaped by a complex interplay between plants, microbes, and the environment. The role of bacteria as mediators of the 400-mill...

Obligate biotroph downy mildew consistently induces near-identical protective microbiomes in Arabidopsis thaliana
Hyaloperonospora arabidopsidis (Hpa) is an obligately biotrophic downy mildew that is routinely cultured on Arabidopsis thaliana hosts that harbour complex microbiomes. We hypothesized that the culturing procedur...

Open AccessCoumarin 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...

Open AccessPseudomonas simiae WCS417: star track of a model beneficial rhizobacterium
Since the 1980s, numerous mutualistic Pseudomonas spp. strains have been used in studies on the biology of plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) and their interactions with host plants. In 1988, a strain fr...

Collection of Sterile Root Exudates from Foliar Pathogen-Inoculated Plants
In nature and agriculture, plants interact with an astonishing number of microbes, collectively referred to as the “plant microbiome.” Roots are a microbial hotspot where beneficial plant-microbe interactions ...

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 ...

Article
Open AccessRoot exudates drive the soil-borne legacy of aboveground pathogen infection
Plants are capable of building up beneficial rhizosphere communities as is evidenced by disease-suppressive soils. However, it is not known how and why soil bacterial communities are impacted by plant exposure...

Open AccessUnearthing the genomes of plant-beneficial Pseudomonas model strains WCS358, WCS374 and WCS417
Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) can protect plants against pathogenic microbes through a diversity of mechanisms including competition for nutrients, production of antibiotics, and stimulation of t...

Effects of the mushroom-volatile 1-octen-3-ol on dry bubble disease
Dry bubble disease caused by Lecanicillium fungicola is a persistent problem in the cultivation of the white button mushroom (Agaricus bisporus). Because control is hampered by chemicals becoming less effective, ...

Absence of induced resistance in Agaricus bisporus against Lecanicillium fungicola
Lecanicillium fungicola causes dry bubble disease and is an important problem in the cultivation of Agaricus bisporus. Little is known about the defense of mushrooms against pathogens in general ...
