Davide Bulgarelli opened Day 2 of #Rhizosphere6 with a great plenary talk, highlighting how domestication and plant breeding shape the rhizosphere microbiota — and how these insights translate from lab to field. 🌱

#Exudates decrease strongly during #plantdevelopment and #metabolome shifts from diverse, sugar-dominated to secondary exudates. Fast-growth genotypes exude root establishing, slow-growth more defensive compounds. See our paper with @drmicrowill.bsky.social and the Bauerle lab.
