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

Deciphering core phyllomicrobiome assemblage on rice genotypes grown in contrasting agroclimatic zones: implications for phyllomicrobiome engineering against blast disease

Environmental Microbiome, 2022
Background With its adapted microbial diversity, the phyllosphere contributes microbial metagenome to the plant holobiont and modulates a host of ecological functions.

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 ...

The grapevine microbiota: A review on the possible impacts of plant protection programs on phyllosphere microorganisms

Annals of Applied Biology, Volume 189, Issue 1, July 2026.
This review highlights recent advances in understanding how plant protection programs and alternative fungicides affect the taxonomic composition of the grapevine phyllosphere microbiota. Bacterial and fungal communities are primarily shaped by the plant compartment, vineyard location, and sampling time. Plant protection programs generally have a minor

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.

Integrated Metabarcoding and Culturomic-Based Microbiome Profiling of Rice Phyllosphere Reveal Diverse and Functional Bacterial Communities for Blast Disease Suppression

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Phyllosphere—the harsh foliar plant part exposed to vagaries of environmental and climatic variables is a unique habitat for microbial communities.

Pseudomonas volatiles shape the root transcriptome and microbiome to promote plant growth under drought

New Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 1, Page 405-423, July 2026.
Summary Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emitted by soil bacteria influence interactions with other soil microbes and plants. While their potential as plant growth promoters is well recognized, their role in promoting plant resilience to abiotic stress and the underlying molecular mechanisms remain poorly understood.

Linking Plant Metabolomics with Fungal Functional Dynamics Reveals a Noncanonical S‐R‐C Adaptive Trajectory

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 31, 4 June 2026.
Using field‐based holo‐omics, we demonstrate that developmental shifts in sorghum leaf metabolomes drive a noncanonical fungal succession from stress tolerators (S) through ruderals (R) to competitors (C). Antifungal metabolites in young leaves select for S strategists with expanded genomes, transient maltose pulses during flowering favor fast‐growing ...

Comparative Metabarcoding of ITS1, ITS2, and Full‐Length ITS Reveals Marker‐ and Tissue‐Specific Variation in Fungal Community Profiling in Potato

Plant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Accurate profiling of plant‐associated fungal and oomycete communities depends critically on the choice of ITS marker. Using Illumina sequencing for ITS1/ITS2 and PacBio HiFi sequencing for full‐length ITS (ITSf), we compared read recovery, taxonomic assignment depth, and diversity patterns across potato leaf and root tissues.
