Microbiome homeostasis on rice leaves is regulated by a precursor molecule of lignin biosynthesis

Nature Communications
In terrestrial ecosystems, plant leaves provide the largest biological habitat for highly diverse microbial communities, known as the phyllosphere microbiota.

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.

Host species and temperature drive beech and Scots pine phyllosphere microbiota across European forests

Communications Earth & Environment
Tree-microbe interactions are essential for forest ecosystem functioning. Most plant–microbe research has focused on the rhizosphere, while composition of microbial communities in the phyllosphere remains underexplored.

Soil Pathobiome in Agroecosystems and Forests

Plant Pathology, Volume 75, Issue 4, July‐August 2026.
This review synthesises current knowledge on the soil pathobiome across agroecosystems, horticulture, and forests, highlighting how climate change and intensive management disrupt microbial communities and promote pathogen accumulation. It emphasises soil health as a key component of the One Health framework, linking ecosystem, plant, animal, and human

Phyllosphere microbial transplantation mitigates heat-induced leaf chlorosis in Ginkgo biloba seedlings

Plant Stress
Phyllosphere microbiota can enhance plant stress tolerance, but their capacity to alleviate heat-induced chlorosis in Ginkgo biloba seedlings, a woody perennial highly susceptible to heat stress, has not been systematically investigated.

Leaf Fungal Microbiome Is Modulated by Interspecific Hybridization Events Between Coffea Species

Physiologia Plantarum, Volume 178, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
ABSTRACT Increasing attention has been given to the host phylogeny and domestication roles in shaping plant‐associated microbiomes. However, the interspecific effects of hybridization on microbial communities remain poorly understood. We investigated the effects of interspecific hybridization on the composition, diversity, ecological organization, and ...

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 ...

A ‘Genome‐First’ Framework for Next‐Generation Bioinputs: From Functional Mining to Rational Synthetic Microbial Communities

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 5, May 2026.
I propose a ‘genome‐first’ framework to collapse the phenotypic bottleneck in bioinput discovery. By integrating multi‐layered genome mining and reverse ecology, this paradigm enables the rational design of stable synthetic microbial communities for a data‐driven and sustainable agricultural bioeconomy.

Fermentation Performance and Microbial Interactions of Selected Aroma‐Producing Yeasts Co‐Cultivated With Lactic Acid Bacteria in Winemaking

Journal of Food Science, Volume 91, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Wine with unique flavor and aroma from nonspontaneous wine fermentation with nonconventional yeasts has gained attention in the wine industry. To develop a stable and controllable pathway for winemaking, the current study screened aroma‐producing yeast strains from grape vineyards in Taiwan and evaluated their suitability through co ...

Divergence and convergence in epiphytic and endophytic phyllosphere bacterial communities of rice landraces

mSphere
Phyllosphere-associated microbes can significantly alter host plant fitness, with distinct functions provided by bacteria inhabiting the epiphytic (external surface) vs endophytic niches (internal leaf tissue).
