Responsiveness of Elite Cultivars vs. Ancestral Genotypes of Barley to Beneficial Rhizosphere Microbiome, Supporting Plant Defense Against Root-Lesion Nematodes

Harnessing plant-microbe interactions to advance crop resistance to pathogens could be a keystone in sustainable agriculture. The breeding of crops to maximize yield in intensive agriculture might have led to the loss of traits that are necessary for beneficial plant-soil feedback. In this study, we...
