Plant roots are colonized by microorganisms from the surrounding soil that belong to
different kingdoms and form a multikingdom microbial community called the root microbiota …

Paeonia lactiflora is a commercial crop with horticultural and medicinal value. Although
interactions between plants and microbes are increasingly evident and considered to be …

To study the spatial and temporal dynamics of bacterial colonization under field conditions,
we planted and sampled Arabidopsis thaliana during 2 years at two Michigan sites and …

Plant roots and rhizosphere soils assemble diverse microbial communities, and these root-
associated microbiomes profoundly influence host development. Modern wheat has given …

Distinct plant associated microbiomes live in rhizosphere soil, roots, and leaves. However,
the differences in community assembly of fungi and bacteria along soil-plant continuum are …

Plant root-associated microbiomes play critical roles in promoting plant health, productivity,
and tolerance to biotic/abiotic stresses. Blueberry (Vaccinium spp.) is adapted to acidic soils …

To understand how microbiota influence plant populations in nature, it is important to
examine the biogeographic distribution of plant-associated microbiomes and the underlying …

Plant-associated diazotrophs strongly relate to plant nitrogen (N) supply and growth.
However, our knowledge of diazotrophic community assembly and microbial N metabolism …

Genetic and environmental cues affecting seed microbial communities have been
investigated to assess the ecological characteristics of seed microbial communities …

Crop roots selectively recruit certain microbial taxa that are essential for supporting their
growth. Within the recruited microbes, some taxa are consistently enriched in the …
