Three‐way interactions between plants, microbes and insects (original) (raw)

AI-generated Abstract

This article reviews the growing field of interactions among plants, microbes, and insects, collectively termed plant-microbe-insect (PMI) interactions. It highlights the ecological importance and implications of these complex interrelations, with a focus on their impact on community structure, crop yields, and biological invasions. The authors emphasize new insights into how these interactions could be manipulated for agricultural benefits and the need for further research to fully understand their roles in ecological and evolutionary contexts.
