Other claims from this paper (13)
- Intervention effect Acetoin significantly reduced tuber number and biomass of Pseudostellaria heterophylla.
- Intervention effect 2,3-butanediol significantly reduced tuber number and biomass of Pseudostellaria heterophylla.
- Observation Bacterial communities remained taxonomically stable.
- Intervention effect Bacterial communities showed only modest responses to VOCs.
- Observation Bacterial communities showed clear shifts across developmental stages.
- Observation Fungal communities underwent marked compositional restructuring.
- Intervention effect Fungal communities were more sensitive to treatment, particularly under BD.
- Observation Neutral community modeling indicated predominantly stochastic bacterial assembly.
- Association Under BD, fungal assembly showed a stronger influence of deterministic processes.
- Intervention effect BD associated with broader transcriptional reprogramming than AC.
- Intervention effect BD was associated with downregulation of photosynthesis, specialized metabolism and defense pathways.
- Association Fungal taxa showed tighter associations with host expression than bacteria.
- Mechanism Microbial VOCs shape rhizosphere communities and host responses, a mechanistic framework the authors propose.
