Root exudates enhance the ecological fitness of a non-native PGPR and reshape rhizosphere microbiome assembly

Root exudates play critical roles in rhizosphere microbiome assembly. Nevertheless, the molecular mechanisms by which plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) perceive these signals, adapt to the rhizosphere, and influence native microbial communities remain poorly understood. Here, using maize (Zea mays cv. Early Golden Bantam) and the rhizobacterium Priestia aryabhattai AB211, we took a…
