Bacillus velezensis 20507 promotes symbiosis between Bradyrhizobium japonicum USDA110 and soybean by secreting flavonoids
<i>B. velezensis</i> enhances <i>B. japonicum-soybean</i> symbiosis via flavonoid secretion, particularly rutin, which modulates nodulation gene expression. This metabiotic interaction improves soybean N assimilation and growth, even under low N conditions. The findings provide a foundation for designing composite inoculants to optimize soybean yield and nitrogen-use efficiency.
