Variation in seed‐borne microbial communities of Metrosideros excelsa Sol. ex Gaertn. with consequences for germination success

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Botany, Volume 63, Issue 5, Page 1981-2004, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Seed endophytic bacteria and fungi are co‐dispersed with seeds and are likely founders of the initial endophytic microbiome in developing seedlings. The effects of the seed microbiome on seedling survival and growth are of particular interest for their roles in protection against pathogens and plant resistance to environmental stress.
