One of the fundamental tenets of biology is that the phenotype of an organism (Y) is
determined by its genotype (G), the environment (E), and their interaction (GE). Quantitative …

Biofertilizers supply living microorganisms to help plants grow and keep their health. This
study examines the microbiome composition of a commercial biofertilizer known for its plant …

This multi-disciplinary paper aims to provide a roadmap for the development of an

Eco-evolutionary forces are the key drivers of ecosystem biodiversity dynamics. This
resulted in a large body of theory, which has partially been experimentally tested by …

Plant microbiomes play a vital role in promoting plant growth and resilience to cope with
environmental stresses. Plant microbiome engineering holds significant promise to increase …

Organic fertilizers and microbial biofertilizers are now widely recognized to effectively
complement traditional mineral fertilizers for plant growth. The present study shows that bio …

A grand challenge in microbial ecology is disentangling the traits of individual populations
within complex communities. Various cultivation-independent approaches have been used …
