Physiology of Methylotrophs Living in the Phyllosphere

Microorganisms, 2021
Methanol is abundant in the phyllosphere, the surface of the above-ground parts of plants, and its concentration oscillates diurnally. The phyllosphere is one of the major habitats for a group of microorganisms, the so-called methylotrophs, that utilize ...

Bacteriophages Roam the Wheat Phyllosphere

Viruses, 2022
The phyllosphere microbiome plays an important role in plant fitness. Recently, bacteriophages have been shown to play a role in shaping the bacterial community composition of the phyllosphere.

The Genetic Diversity of Endophytic and Phyllosphere Bacteria from Several Indonesian Herbal Plants [PDF]

Makara Seri Sains, 2012
Herbal plants have been believed by Indonesians to be an alternative medicine to treat illnesses. The bioactivecompounds in the plant can be derived from secondary metabolites or from endophytic and phyllosphere bacteria whichcoexist within medicinal ...

Characterization of phyllosphere endophytic lactic acid bacteria reveals a potential novel route to enhance silage fermentation quality

Communications Biology
The naturally attached phyllosphere microbiota play a crucial role in plant-derived fermentation, but the structure and function of phyllosphere endophytes remain largely unidentified.

Consistent host and organ occupancy of phyllosphere bacteria in a community of wild herbaceous plant species. [PDF]

ISME J, 2020
International audienceBacteria colonizing the aerial parts of plants (phyllosphere) are linked to the biology of their host. They impact plant–pathogen interactions and may influence plant reproduction.

Widespread and largely unknown prophage activity, diversity, and function in two genera of wheat phyllosphere bacteria. [PDF]

ISME J, 2023
Environmental bacteria host an enormous number of prophages, but their diversity and natural functions remain largely elusive. Here, we investigate prophage activity and diversity in 63 Erwinia and Pseudomonas strains isolated from flag leaves of wheat ...

Dominance of Ciliophora and Chlorophyta Among Phyllosphere Protists of Solanaceous Plants

Phytobiomes Journal, 2023
Phyllosphere microbiota play an important role in shaping plant health and function but most research has focused only on bacterial and fungal communities. As a result, little is known about the composition of diverse microeukaryotes in the phyllosphere,

Effects of Variety, Plant Location, and Season on the Phyllosphere Bacterial Community Structure of Alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.)

Microorganisms, 2022
Plant phyllosphere bacteria are vital for plant health and productivity and are affected by both abiotic and biotic factors. In this study, we surveyed the structure of the phyllosphere bacterial community associated with alfalfa.

Differences in phyllosphere microbiomes among different Populus spp. in the same habitat

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023
IntroductionThe above-ground parts of terrestrial plants are collectively known as the phyllosphere. The surface of the leaf blade is a unique and extensive habitat for microbial communities.

Phyllosphere bacterial and fungal communities vary with host species identity, plant traits and seasonality in a subtropical forest

Environmental Microbiome, 2022
Background Phyllosphere microbes play important roles in host plant performance and fitness. Recent studies have suggested that tropical and temperate forests harbor diverse phyllosphere bacterial and fungal communities and their assembly is driven by ...
