Serratia odorifera , an antagonistic rhizobacterium, emits a diverse and complex bouquet of volatiles. Three different in vitro experimental culture systems indicated that these volatiles promote the growth of Arabidopsis thaliana . CO 2 trapping and significant rise of CO 2 levels (390–3000 ppm CO 2 within 24 h) due to bacterial growth in sealed Petri dishes verified the enhanced effects of rhizobacterial CO 2 on A. thaliana's growth. In contrast, open cocultivations abrogated growth promotion, and inhibitory effects come to the fore at ambient CO 2 concentrations.
