Abstract Plant roots constantly communicate with their microbiota, adapting their anatomy to facilitate microbial colonisation under abiotic stresses. Microbes, in turn, can reshape root anatomy once they establish. However, the mechanisms that coordinate this interplay remain largely unknown. Working with the aquatic plant family Lemnaceae, we reveal that the inherent complexity of root anatomy determines root plasticity in response to microbial colonisation.
