Generalist phyllosphere taxa dominate microbial communities on macrophytes across a natural salinity gradient [PDF]

Environmental Microbiome
Background Shallow coastal habitats are characterized by diverse macrophytes and often feature steep abiotic gradients, including salinity variations, which can shape the leaf- surface epi-microbiome (phyllosphere).

The impact of spray-induced gene silencing on cereal phyllosphere microbiota [PDF]

Environmental Microbiome
Background Fusarium head blight (FHB) is a major disease affecting cereal crops including wheat, barley, rye, oats and maize. Its predominant causal agent is the ascomycete fungus Fusarium graminearum, which infects the spikes and thereby reduces grain ...

Metagenomic and taxonomic profiling of phyllosphere bacteria from Mangifera indica in response to urban air pollutants in Medellín, Colombia. [PDF]

PLoS ONE
Urban trees and their phyllosphere-associated microbiota constitute a promising nature-based solution for mitigating urban air pollution. In this study, we characterized the taxonomic composition, diversity patterns, and functional potential of bacterial

The mature phyllosphere microbiome of grapevine is associated with resistance against Plasmopara viticola

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Phyllosphere microbiota represents a substantial but hardly explored reservoir for disease resistance mechanisms. The goal of our study was to understand the link between grapevine cultivars susceptibility to Plasmopara viticola, one of the most ...

Composition and variability of core phyllosphere fungal mycobiota on field-grown broccoli

Environmental Microbiome, 2023
Background Fresh vegetables harbor an assemblage of different microorganisms on their surfaces. The phyllosphere microbiota is important for maintaining plant health and managing crop quality before and after harvest.

Hidden Tenants: Microbiota of the Rhizosphere and Phyllosphere of Cordia dodecandra Trees in Mayan Forests and Homegardens

Plants, 2022
During domestication, the selection of cultivated plants often reduces microbiota diversity compared with their wild ancestors. Microbiota in compartments such as the phyllosphere or rhizosphere can promote fruit tree health, growth, and development ...

Influence of Plant Fraction, Soil, and Plant Species on Microbiota: a Multikingdom Comparison

mBio, 2020
Plant roots influence the soil microbiota via physical interaction, secretion, and plant immunity. However, it is unclear whether the root fraction or soil is more important in determining the structure of the prokaryotic or eukaryotic community and ...

Phyllosphere Microbiota Composition and Microbial Community Transplantation on Lettuce Plants Grown Indoors

mBio, 2014
The aerial surfaces of plants, or phyllosphere, are microbial habitats important to plant and human health. In order to accurately investigate microbial interactions in the phyllosphere under laboratory conditions, the composition of the phyllosphere ...
