DO VOLATILES AFFECT BACTERIA AND PLANTS IN THE SAME WAY? GROWTH AND BIOCHEMICAL RESPONSE OF NON-STRESSED AND CD-STRESSED ARABIDOPSIS THALIANA AND RHIZOBIUM E20-8

Do Volatiles Affect Bacteria and Plants in the Same Way? Growth and Biochemical Response of Non-Stressed and Cd-Stressed Arabidopsis thaliana and Rhizobium E20-8

Plant roots are colonized by rhizobacteria, and these soil microorganisms can not only stimulate plant growth but also increase tolerance to stress through the production of volatile organic compounds.However, little is known about the effect that these plant beneficial volatiles may have on bacteria.In this study, the effects on growth and oxidati
