Clearing the Noise: Seasonal Dynamics of Endophytic Bacteria in Fagus sylvatica Leaves Revealed by Application of PNA Clamps

Physiologia Plantarum, Volume 178, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT The characterization of the seasonal dynamics of endophytic bacteria in beech leaves can be hindered by co‐amplification of chloroplast and mitochondrial plant DNA. This study applies established peptide nucleic acid (PNA) clamps to suppress host‐derived amplification while resolving bacterial succession across the vegetative season ...

Adaptive matching between phyllosphere bacteria and their tree hosts in a neotropical forest

Microbiome, 2020
Background The phyllosphere is an important microbial habitat, but our understanding of how plant hosts drive the composition of their associated leaf microbial communities and whether taxonomic associations between plants and phyllosphere microbes ...

Bridging the Cultivation Gap in Plant Microbiomes: A Comparative Study of Aerial Root Mucilage Microbiome Characterization by Conventional Isolation, Prospector High‐Throughput Cultivation, and Molecular Profiling

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 2, April 2026.
Integration of high‐throughput microfluidic isolation, Sanger identification, and full‐length 16S rRNA sequencing reveals a more accurate and comprehensive view of mucilage‐associated microbiomes, enabling robust cross‐validation between cultivation and community profiling.

Tillandsia landbeckii phyllosphere and laimosphere as refugia for bacterial life in a hyperarid desert environment

Microbiome, 2023
Background The lack of water is a major constraint for microbial life in hyperarid deserts. Consequently, the abundance and diversity of microorganisms in common habitats such as soil are strongly reduced, and colonization occurs primarily by ...

Maintenance of Gut Microbial Balance via the Kynurenine Pathway Improves Larval Performance and Resistance to Bacillus thuringiensis in Spodoptera exigua

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 2, April 2026.
CRISPR/Cas9‐mediated deletion of kmo in Spodoptera exigua abolished 8‐HQA production, disrupted gut microbial homeostasis, and promoted Enterococcus dominance in gut and oral secretion. Mutants exhibited impaired growth, delayed development, and increased susceptibility to Bacillus thuringiensis, highlighting a conserved role of the kynurenine pathway ...

Data from: Negative plant-phyllosphere feedbacks in native Asteraceae hosts – a novel extension of the plant-soil feedback framework

, 2017
Over the past 25 years, the plant-soil feedback (PSF) framework has catalyzed our understanding of how belowground microbiota impact plant fitness and species coexistence.

Responses of phyllosphere microbiota and plant health to application of two different biocontrol agents

AMB Express, 2019
The phyllosphere supports a tremendous diversity of microbes, which have the potential to influence plant biogeography and ecosystem function. Although biocontrol agents (BCAs) have been used extensively for controlling plant diseases, the ecological effects of BCAs on phyllosphere bacteria and the relationships between phyllosphere community and plant

Can We Breed Microbiomes to Sustain Plant Productivity?

Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 19, Issue 4, April 2026.
Plant domestication unintentionally reshaped crop microbiomes. We propose extending breeding beyond plant genomes to include the microbiome, integrating rewilding, QTL‐guided recruitment and ecological network design. Treating the microbiome as a selectable trait may unlock durable crop resilience under climate stress. ABSTRACT Global food systems face

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.
