The lactonase BxdA mediates metabolic adaptation of maize root bacteria to benzoxazinoids

L. Thoenen, M. Kreuzer, M. Florean, P. Mateo, T. Zuest, C. Giroud, L. Rouyer, V. Gfeller, M. Notter, E. Knoch, S. Hapfelmeier, C. Becker, N. Schandry, C. Robert, T. Koellner, , K. Schlaeppi

The paper identifies BxdA, a lactonase in maize root bacteria, which enables metabolic adaptation to benzoxazinoids, enhancing bacterial growth under carbon limitation.

Soil chemical and microbial gradients determine accumulation of root exuded secondary metabolites and plant-soil feedbacks in the field

V. Gfeller, S. Cadot, S. Gulliver, J. Waelchli, C. Terrettaz, L. Thoenen, P. Mateo, C. Robert, F. Mascher, T. Steinger, M. Bigalke, M. Erb, K. Schlaeppi

This study shows that soil chemical and microbial gradients influence benzoxazinoid accumulation and plant-soil feedbacks in a field, with feedback effects varying along these gradients.
