The hidden world within plants: ecological and evolutionary considerations for defining functioning of microbial endophytes
All plants are inhabited internally by diverse microbial communities comprising bacterial,
archaeal, fungal, and protistic taxa. These microorganisms showing endophytic lifestyles …

Plant–microbe interactions in the rhizosphere via a circular metabolic economy
Chemical exchange often serves as the first step in plant–microbe interactions and
exchanges of various signals, nutrients, and metabolites continue throughout the interaction …

The interconnected rhizosphere: high network complexity dominates rhizosphere assemblages
While interactions between roots and microorganisms have been intensively studied, we
know little about interactions among root‐associated microbes. We used random matrix …
