Early root-root interactions weaken foliar defense responses against Septoria tritici blotch in a durum wheat varietal mixture

The paper shows that root-root interactions in durum wheat mixtures delay foliar defense responses to Septoria tritici blotch, increasing susceptibility.

Root phenolics as potential drivers of preformed defenses and reduced disease susceptibility in a paradigm bread wheat mixture

The paper investigates how root phenolics mediate reduced disease susceptibility in wheat mixtures by disrupting root interactions and analyzing transcriptomic and metabolomic responses.
