Metabolic Reprogramming in Cucumis metuliferus Roots and Rhizosphere Identifies Candidate Metabolites That Reduce Meloidogyne incognita Infection.

Root-knot nematode causes severe yield losses in cucumber and other cucurbits. The wild relative Cucumis metuliferus exhibits strong resistance, but the metabolic basis of this resistance and the potential of resistance-associated metabolites to protect susceptible crops remains poorly understood. Here, we compared hos...
