A recent study by Choi et al. provides evidence of the interaction between the karrikin (KAR) signaling and strigolactone (SL) biosynthetic pathways. Since SLs shape rhizomicrobiome composition, it is of interest to determine whether KAR signaling could affect rhizomicrobiome composition by improving the synthesis of root-derived SLs to support climate-smart agriculture.
