Protists include all eukaryotes except plants, fungi and animals. They are an essential, yet
often forgotten, component of the soil microbiome. Method developments have now …

The rhizosphere microbiome is a central determinant of plant performance. Microbiome
assembly has traditionally been investigated from a bottom-up perspective, assessing how …

Plant health is strongly impacted by beneficial and pathogenic plant microbes, which are
themselves structured by resource inputs. Organic fertilizer inputs may thus offer a means of …

In natural ecosystems, positive effects of plant diversity on ecosystem functioning have been
widely observed, yet whether this is true in cropping systems remains unclear. Here we …

Background Plant health is intimately influenced by the rhizosphere microbiome, a complex
assembly of organisms that changes markedly across plant growth. However, most …

Simple Summary Plant microbiome is a key determinant of plant health and productivity.
Plant microbiome is an alternative untapped source that could be harnessed for plant health …

Several microbes promote plant growth, and many microbial products that stimulate plant
growth have been marketed. In this review we restrict ourselves to bacteria that are derived …

Lipopeptides constitute a structurally diverse group of metabolites produced by various
bacterial and fungal genera. In the past decades, research on lipopeptides has been fueled …

The rhizosphere is of central importance not only for plant nutrition, health and quality but
also for microorganism-driven carbon sequestration, ecosystem functioning and nutrient …

Soil-and plant-associated environments harbor numerous bacteria that produce antibiotic
metabolites with specific or broad-spectrum activities against coexisting microorganisms …
