Root exudate metabolites drive plant-soil feedbacks on growth and defense by shaping the rhizosphere microbiota
By changing soil properties, plants can modify their growth environment. Although the soil
microbiota is known to play a key role in the resulting plant-soil feedbacks, the proximal …

Silicon nanodots increase plant resistance against herbivores by simultaneously activating physical and chemical defenses
Nanosilicon applications have been shown to increase plant defenses against both abiotic
and biotic stresses. Silicon quantum nanodots (Si NDs), a form of nanosilicon, possess …
