Un sol riche en microorganismes est important pour la bonne santé des plantes. Mais par quels mécanismes ? Des chercheurs ont mis en évidence une bactérie présente autour des racines qui stimule les défenses antimicrobiennes de la plante pour limiter le développement de ses concurrentes. Une nouvelle piste pour des traitements agricoles durables.
