ABSTRACT
Significance
Understanding how host–microbe homeostasis is controlled and maintained in plant roots is key to enhance plant productivity. However, the factors that contribute to the maintenance of this equilibrium between plant roots and their multikingdom microbial communities remain largely unknown. Here, we observed a link between fungal load in roots and plant health, and we showed that modulation of fungal abundance is tightly controlled by a two-layer regulatory circuit involving the host innate immune system on one hand and bacterial root commensals on another hand. Our results shed a light into how host–microbe and microbe–microbe interactions act in concert to prevent dysbiosis in

roots, thereby promoting plant health and maintaining growth-promoting activities of multikingdom microbial commensals.
