Root-secreted chemicals mediate multi-partite interactions in the rhizosphere, where plant roots continually respond to and alter their immediate environment. Increasing evidence suggests that root exudates initiate and modulate dialogue between roots and soil microbes. For example, root exudates serve as ...
The rhizosphere bacteria of wild tobacco species showed a higher functional diversity than that of the cultivated tobacco, while the bacteria in the root endosphere presented a contrary pattern. Metabolomics analysis showed significant differences in the composition and abundance of root exudates among ...
2.2. Factors influencing the function of deep roots 2.2.1. Subsoil water availability Although deep roots are important for improving drought resistance in most cases, a greater number and amount of deep roots does not equate to stronger drought resistance. The availability of subsoil water determi...

apoplast function is also prerequisite for the plant life. There are so far seven distinct functions of apoplast. (1) Growth regulation with apoplastic enzymes by altering cell-wall properties through degradation, synthesis, orientation and cross-linking of supra-molecules of cell walls, such as cel...
Thus, microorganisms applied to plants can have a dual function of biocontrol agent and of biostimulant, and the claimed agricultural effect will be instrumental in their regulatory categorization. The present review gives an overview of the definition and concept of plant biostimulants, as well as ...
Down-regulation of SlIAA15 in tomato altered stem xylem development and production of volatile compounds in leaf exudatesThe Aux/IAA family genes encode short-lived nuclear proteins that function as transcriptional regulators in auxin signal transduction. Aux/IAA genes have been reported to control ...

To reveal the function of DEGs, the top 10 Biological Processes (BP) of GO terms in Q9 and Atl were performed. At the early stage, the overrepresented GO terms in Q9 (Q1) included “proteolysis involved in cellular protein catabolic process”, “recognition of pollen”, “protein catabolic ...
Plant-microbe interactions and symbiotic interactions for plant growth regulation and stress management The role and effects of microbial secondary metabolites in shaping the composition and function of plant microbiomes Antibiosis and microbial competition, with implications for plant growth regulation and ...
