Journal ArticleDOI
The Role of Root Exudates in Rhizosphere Interactions with Plants and Other Organisms
TL;DR: Recent advances in elucidating the role of root exudates in interactions between plant roots and other plants, microbes, and nematodes present in the rhizosphere are described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Crosstalk between Microbiota-Derived Short-Chain Fatty Acids and Intestinal Epithelial HIF Augments Tissue Barrier Function

TL;DR: A mechanism where host-microbe interactions augment barrier function in the distal gut is highlighted, where the influences of butyrate are lost in cells lacking HIF, thus linkingbutyrate metabolism to stabilized HIF and barrier function.
Journal ArticleDOI
How plants communicate using the underground information superhighway.
TL;DR: Increasing evidence suggests that root exudates might initiate and manipulate biological and physical interactions between roots and soil organisms, and thus play an active role in root-root and root-microbe communication.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biochemical and physiological mechanisms mediated by allelochemicals
TL;DR: Progress has been made in understanding the biochemical and molecular changes that are induced by alleLochemicals in susceptible plant species, and the complex mechanisms that are used by allelochemical-resistant plants to defend against this toxic insult.
Journal ArticleDOI
The gut microbiota at the intersection of diet and human health
TL;DR: Diet is a key component of the relationship between humans and their microbial residents; gut microbes use ingested nutrients for fundamental biological processes, and the metabolic outputs of those processes may have important impacts on human physiology.
