Cooperative siderophore use stabilizes a protective leaf microbiome
2026-03-18
Abstract excerpt
Plant-associated microbial communities provide crucial protection against pathogens. Specialized metabolites play key roles in plant-microbe and microbe-microbe interactions and, ultimately, in plant health; however, the molecular mechanisms underlying their plant-protecting properties remain largely unknown. Nutrient deficiency (e.g., iron) on leaf surfaces creates intense competition among microbes, driving both...
