Cooperative siderophore use stabilizes a protective leaf microbiome

The paper shows that cooperative siderophore exchange between Rhodotorula kratochvilovae and Pseudomonas species stabilizes the leaf microbiome and protects plants from pathogens.

Early seed priming with closely related Bacillus strains induces divergent physiological and defense responses in melon

This study shows that melon seeds primed with two closely related Bacillus strains trigger different physiological and defense responses based on microbial identity and inoculum dose.

The offensive role of the Bacillus extracellular matrix in driving metabolite-mediated dialogue and adaptive strategies with pathogenic fungi

This study shows that Bacillus subtilis uses its extracellular matrix protein TasA to suppress Botrytis cinerea by disrupting fungal structures and delivering antimicrobial compounds, while the fungus responds with adaptive strategies.

Native Metabolomics Identifies the Rivulariapeptolide Family of Protease Inhibitors

This study uses native metabolomics to identify a family of protease inhibitors from cyanobacteria, revealing their structure and potent biological activity.
