Abstract:
Limited understanding exists on the spatial configuration of underground plant-microbe interactions. In this issue of Cell Host & Microbe, Loo et al. illustrate the sugar transporter-involved interdependent interaction between root metabolites and microbial spatial colonization, providing insights into metabolic-associated organization of plant-microbe interactions.
