The SIREM project investigates how plants communicate with soil microorganisms through root exudates. It aims to understand the signaling pathways and genetic controls involved in this process, which is crucial for plant health and ecosystem interactions.
The prosperity of plants and human beings is dependent on the outer layer of soil that makes up our planets shell.
Curiously, a significant portion of plants' most precious elements, carbon and nitrogen, is secreted by roots into soil in the form of chemically-rich exudates.
This is not merely 'dumping' of waste but rather the chemical language of plants, used in their underground communication with billions of detrimental and beneficial microorganisms.
