Plant Defense by VOC-Induced Microbial Priming

Liu, Hongwei; Brettell, Laura

Abstract

The plant holobiont extends the plant’s capacity for nutrient acquisition and stress protection. Recent studies show that under biotic stress plants can promote the acquisition of certain beneficial bacteria to their rhizosphere. Active emission of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) is a newly identified mechanism utilized by plants for this process.
