Interspecific transfer of root-exuded specialized metabolites coincides with chromatin regulation and systemic chemical defense in rice

Benzoxazinoids are indole-derived specialized metabolites released into the soil through root exudates. Initially studied for their allelopathic and toxic effects, they are now recognized as broad regulators of plant–organism interactions, including microbiome-mediated pathogen resistance. However, whether benzoxazinoi...
