Plant social networking system: Leaf insect feeding recruits beneficial root-associated bacteria and fungi in pepper
Plants have evolved general and specific defense mechanisms to protect themselves from diverse enemies, including herbivores and pathogens. To maintain fitness in the presence of enemies, plant defense mechanisms are aimed at inducing systemic resistance: in response to the attack of pathogens or herbivores, plants initiate extensive changes in gene expression to activate systemic acquired resistance against pathogens and indirect defense against herbivores. Recent work revealed that leaf infestation by whiteflies, stimulated systemic defenses against both an airborne pathogen and a soil-borne pathogen, which was confirmed by the detection of the systemic expression of pathogenesisrelated genes in response to salicylic acid and jasmonic acid-signaling pathway activation. Further investigation revealed that plants use selfprotection mechanisms against subsequent herbivore attacks by recruiting beneficial microorganisms called plant growth-promoting.
