Volatile compounds play important roles in rhizosphere interactions. The goal of this project is to understand the molecular mechanisms underlying volatile-mediated communication between plants, bacteria and fungi. To achieve that, we couple volatile profiling, plant transcriptomics and metabolomics as well as bacterial mutagenesis.
