This study identifies coumarins as mediators linking rhizobacterial perception in roots to systemic immune signaling and resistance in leaves.

The paper demonstrates directional cell-to-cell transport in differentiated plant roots via plasmodesmata and identifies genetic factors affecting this directionality.

The paper identifies ZIP transporters involved in Zn, Fe, Cu, and Mn uptake in Arabidopsis roots and highlights their roles in metal acquisition.
