They show how Fusarium infection drives leaf-surface alkalinization — and how acid-producing Pseudomonas species flip the switch to suppress disease.
Happy to have chipped in a little (also with @fdiniandreote.bsky.social
This nicely builds on our earlier Current Biology work with
@keyu01.bsky.social @utrechtpmi.bsky.social @carahaney.bsky.social @cornepieterse.bsky.social @gstringlis.bsky.social , where we showed how acidification of the plant environment supports colonization by beneficial Pseudomonas.
