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

open access: yesFrontiers 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

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

open access: yesMicrobiome
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

open access: yesEnvironment 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.

Experimental evidence of microbial inheritance in plants and transmission routes from seed to phyllosphere and root

open access: yes, 2021
While the environment is considered the primary origin of the plant microbiome, the potential role of seeds as a source of transmitting microorganisms has not received much attention.

Klebsiella sp. strain B7 enhances alkaline tolerance by secreting pyruvic acid to accelerate L‐malic acid accumulation in soybean

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 68, Issue 6, Page 1727-1743, June 2026.
Klebsiella sp. strain B7 acts as a positive regulator in alkaline stress responses in soybean. By activating pyruvic acid metabolism and L‐malic acid biosynthesis pathways, B7 significantly increases alkaline tolerance and yield in soybean. ABSTRACT Alkaline stress is a major constraint on crop growth and development and negatively impacts soybean ...

Functional gene categories differentiate maize leaf drought-related microbial epiphytic communities.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
The phyllosphere epiphytic microbiome is composed of microorganisms that colonize the external aerial portions of plants. Relationships of plant responses to specific microorganisms-both pathogenic and beneficial-have been examined, but the phyllosphere ...

Common mycorrhizal networks enhance defense responses against pathogens in neighboring plants

open access: yesiMetaOmics
Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi can establish common mycorrhizal networks (CMNs) and assemble their own phyllosphere microbiome. Although the roles of the AM fungi in soil microbiomes have been extensively studied, little is known about the role of ...

The plant is crucial: specific composition and function of the phyllosphere microbiome of indoor ornamentals [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Ecology, 2016
The plant microbiome is a key determinant of plant health. Less is known about the phyllosphere microbiota and its driving factors in built environments. To study the variability of the microbiome in relation to plant genotype and climate under different controlled conditions, we investigated 14 phylogenetically diverse plant species grown in the ...

Contaminants of emerging concern in agricultural soils: Current understanding, overlooked issues, and future priorities

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 3, Page 792-810, May 2026.
Contaminants of emerging concern (CECs) in agriculture represent a growing global challenge for food safety and public health. In this review, we synthesized evidence on how substances such as pharmaceuticals, microplastics, and per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) enter soils, accumulate in crops, and affect ecological and human health. We found

Host Identity Determines the Bacterial and Fungal Community and Network Structures in the Phyllosphere of Plant Species in a Temperate Steppe

open access: yesPhytobiomes Journal
Elucidating the plant−microbiome network is of importance in understanding species coexistence in natural ecosystems. The phyllosphere, which is the aerial parts of terrestrial plants, is inhabited by diverse microbes.
