Unveiling Potato Cultivars With Microbiome Interactive Traits for Sustainable Agricultural Production

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Root traits significantly shape rhizosphere microbiomes, yet their interaction with microbes is often overlooked in plant breeding programs. Here, we propose that selecting modern cultivars based on microbiome interactive trait (MIT), such as root biomass, exudate patterns and the rhizosphere microbiome, can enhance agricultural sustainability

Phyllospheric Microbiomes: Diversity, Ecological Significance, and Biotechnological Applications [PDF]

, 2020
The phyllosphere referred to the total aerial plant surfaces (above-ground portions), as habitat for microorganisms. Microorganisms establish compositionally complex communities on the leaf surface. The microbiome of phyllosphere is rich in diversity of bacteria, fungi, actinomycetes, cyanobacteria, and viruses.

Deciphering Role of Endophytes in Plant Defences and Biotic Stress Resilience Across Families

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant families generate distinct repertoires of specialised metabolites that govern their biotic interactions. Endophytes strengthen host plant defence mechanisms and tolerance to biotic challenges by upregulating metabolite biosynthesis, modifying precursor compounds into more potent forms, or by directly synthesising analogous defence ...

Microbial community overlap between the phyllosphere and rhizosphere of three plants from Yongxing Island, South China Sea

MicrobiologyOpen, 2020
Phyllosphere and rhizosphere are unique and wide‐ranging habitats that harbor various microbial communities, which influence plant growth and health, and the productivity of the ecosystems.

Bark‐associated yeasts and their potential role as tree carbon sink at the treeline of the southern Andes

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
In the southern Andes, Nothofagus pumilio shows elevational decreases in the concentrations of carbon reserves which are the food of bark‐associated yeasts, suggesting that competition for carbohydrates between tree growth and bark‐associated yeasts may cause carbon shortages.

The impact of the pathogen Rhizoctonia solani and its beneficial counterpart Bacillus amyloliquefaciens on the indigenous lettuce microbiome

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2014
Lettuce belongs to the most commonly raw eaten food worldwide and its microbiome plays an important role for both human and plant health. Yet, little is known about the impact of potentially occurring pathogens and beneficial inoculants of the indigenous

Compartment‐Specific Functional and Taxonomic Responses of Plant Growth‐Promoting Microbiomes Following Oxytetracycline Trunk Injection in Citrus

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Huanglongbing (HLB), caused by Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus, is the most destructive disease affecting citrus production worldwide. Trunk injection of oxytetracycline (OTC) is increasingly used to suppress the pathogen and improve tree performance, yet its ecological consequences for plant‐associated microbiomes remain poorly understood ...

Host selection is not a universal driver of phyllosphere community assembly among ecologically similar native New Zealand plant species

Microbiome
Background A growing body of evidence demonstrates that host-associated microbial communities of plant leaf surfaces (i.e. the phyllosphere) can influence host functional traits. However, it remains unclear whether host selection is a universal driver of

Forest management positively reshapes the phyllosphere bacterial community and improves community stability

Environment International
Research has shown that forest management can improve the post-drought growth and resilience of Qinghai spruce in the eastern Qilian Mountains, located on the northeastern Tibetan Plateau.

Rhizosphere Microbiome Transplantation as a Resource‐Efficient Approach to Enhance Growth and Microbial Functional Diversity in Urban Plants

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 14, Page 10405-10416, 30 August 2026.
ABSTRACT Urban soils are increasingly affected by degradation, compaction, pollution, and water limitation, which can constrain plant performance and the functioning of urban green spaces. Rhizosphere microbiome transplantation (RMT), which transfers entire microbial communities from donor plants to target species, has emerged as a potential ...
