MetabolomicsOverexpression of the vascular brassinosteroid receptor BRL3 confers drought resistance without penalizing plant growth

Drought represents a major threat to food security. Mechanistic data describing plant responses to drought have been studied extensively and genes conferring drought resistance have been introduced into crop plants. However, plants with enhanced drought resistance usually display lower growth, hi...

MetabolomicsThe Streptomyces-derived nucleoside Guvermectin simultaneously promotes plant growth and immunity

This study investigates the dual role of the Streptomyces-derived nucleoside Guvermectin (GV) in promoting plant growth and enhancing disease resistance. Multiomics analysis revealed that GV reprograms phenylalanine metabolism, leading to the accumulation of antimicrobial flavonoids. A key UDP-gl...

MetabolomicsLinking root exudates to functional plant traits
Primary and secondary metabolites exuded by plant roots have mainly been studied under laboratory conditions, while knowledge of root exudate patterns of plants growing in natural communities is very limited. Focusing on ten common European grassland plant species, we asked to which degree exuded me...

MetabolomicsPost-herbivory Tea Plant Leaves Restructure Endophytic Microbiota to Resist Disease and Boost Saccharide Metabolism to Promote Growth

The induced capacity of plant growth-defense trade-offs under biotic stress is increasingly recognized. While many studies mainly focus on plants’ defense activation stage during insect attacks, limited attention has been given to post-stress recovery. Herein, leaves from normal and post-herbivor...

MetabolomicsBeauveria bassiana acts as a beneficial endophyte in tea crops, modulating microbial communities and metabolic pathways to enhance plant growth

Entomopathogenic fungi have the ability to both directly kill insect pests and act as plant endophytic fungi to impact plant growth and development. Despite this, the widespread endophytic use of these fungi in tea plants (Camellia sinensis) is still limited. This study examined how Beauveria bas...

MetabolomicsA general non-self response as part of plant immunity
Plants, like other multicellular lifeforms, are colonized by microorganisms. How plants respond to their microbiota is currently not well understood. We used a phylogenetically diverse set of 39 endogenous bacterial strains from Arabidopsis thaliana leaves to assess host transcriptional and metaboli...

MetabolomicsPlant-to-plant variability in root metabolite profiles of 19 Arabidopsis thaliana accessions is substance-class dependent
Natural variation of secondary metabolism between different accessions of Arabidopsis thaliana has been studied extensively. In this study, we extended the natural variation approach by including biological variability and analyzed root metabolic patterns as well as their variability between plants ...

MetabolomicsThe glycosyltransferase UGT76B1 modulates N-hydroxy-pipecolic acid homeostasis and plant immunity
The trade-off between growth and defense is a critical aspect of plant immunity. Therefore, the plant immune response needs to be tightly regulated. Salicylic acid (SA) is an important plant hormone regulating defense against biotrophic pathogens. Recently, N-hydroxy-pipecolic acid (NHP) was identif...

MetabolomicsEndophytic mycobiont provides growth benefits via a Phenylpropanoid-Auxin axis in host plants

Beneficial association with symbiotic fungi helps improve the growth and fitness in most land plants, and shows great potential as biofertilizers in precision agriculture. Here, we demonstrated that a root fungal endophyte, Tinctoporellus species isolate AR8, enabled yield improvement in...
