Overview

Both hormones are important for plant growth and development, and response to biotic and abiotic stress stimuli (Al-Babili and Bouwmeester, 2015;Wang et al., 2021). [...]SLs are some of the best-known examples of underground signaling molecules in plant-microbe and plant-plant communication (Lanfranco et al., 2018). Research in this field has been aggravated by the very low quantities of root-secreted specialized metabolites, which hinders their identification, structural characterizations, and detailed assessment of their biological function. [...]researchers need to collect root exudates at large scale to get insights into their metabolite compositions (Ueno et al., 2021). [...]our research collection also provides important perspectives on the overlooked regulatory and signaling metabolites in the rhizosphere, paving the way for future investigations.
