• Plant communities as drivers of soil respiration: pathways, mechanisms, and significance for global change (2011, background): “…factors and other plant traits.332 Root exudates are a diverse group of compounds which interact in numerous ways with plant333 roots, soil microbes and macrofauna, and can represent a substantial proportion of belowground334 C allocation for herbaceous plant species (Inderjit and Weston, 2003).”
• Plant functional traits and soil carbon sequestration in contrasting biomes. (2008, unknown): “However, root exudates are qualitatively very diverse in terms of the metabolites that they contain, and their contributions to priming are largely unexplored (Inderjit & Weston 2003).”
• FEEDBACK IN THE PLANT-SOIL SYSTEM (2005, background): “Polyphenols in leachates and exudates are implicated in the direct complexation of proteins and reductions in N mineralization rates (127, 155, 197, 198).”
• Ecophysiological aspects of allelopathy (2003, background): “Root exudates are also common sources of allelochemicals with potent biological activity, and are produced by numerous plant species, with great variation found in chemical components within exudates (Inderjit and Weston 2003).”
• Anatomy of Sorgoleone‐Secreting Root Hairs of Sorghum Species (2003, background): “Recent reviews (Peterson and Farquhar 1996; Inderjit and Weston 2003) conclude that relatively little is known about the secretion of these materials from root hairs.”
• Exotic invasive plant accumulates native soil pathogens which inhibit native plants (2007, background): “Root leachate could contribute phenolic compounds either directly through leaching or indirectly through their microbial degradation, which have been shown to exert allelopathic and other ecological effects in many different ecosystems (Inderjit 1996; Inderjit & Weston 2003).”
• Influence of Environmental Variability on Root Dynamics in Northern Forests (2009, background): “) (Inderjit and Weston, 2003), allelopathy is generally not an important mechanism of root competition in more northern forests.”
