The project aims to understand how beneficial microbes in plants enhance resistance to pests through a phenomenon called Microbe-Induced Plant Resistance (MIR). It investigates how these immune responses affect not only the plants but also herbivores and the surrounding soil microbiome.
Plant-beneficial microbes can modulate the plant immune system enhancing plant resistance to insect pests.
This phenomenon, known as Microbe-Induced plant Resistance (MIR) has emerged as a sustainable pest control strategy.
Strikingly, my latest results indicate that MIR-immune responses elicited in plants cascade upwards leaving a molecular imprint in surviving insect herbivores (a MIR-imprint).
This suggests that MIR-triggered responses in plants could ‘travel’ beyond the plant and be incorpor…
