Pathogen-triggered induced resistance in plants increases flavonol levels that enrich Aureimonas phyllosphaerae Leaf1 in phyllosphere endophytes near infection sites.
- Why it matters: Pathogen-driven induced resistance and beneficial-microbe induced resistance both support survival, but their interaction during foliar disease is not well understood.
- What they did: The study showed pathogen-triggered IR drives flavonol accumulation and microbiota assembly, then tested Leaf1 by genetically impairing its ability to utilize flavonols.
- The result: Leaf1 utilization of flavonols supports its proliferation during infection and enables Leaf1 to activate IR and broaden the protective range of pathogen-mediated IR.
