Plants are subjected to diverse biotic and abiotic stresses in life. These can induce changes
in transcriptomics and metabolomics, resulting in changes to root and leaf exudates and, in …

Agricultural intensification has had long-lasting negative legacies largely because of
excessive inputs of agrochemicals (eg, fertilizers) and simplification of cropping systems (eg …

Substantial efforts to characterize the structural and functional diversity of soil, plant and
insect-associated microbial communities have illuminated the complex interacting domains …

We present QIIME 2, an opensource microbiome data science platform accessible to users
spanning the microbiome research ecosystem, from scientists and engineers to clinicians …

By changing soil properties, plants can modify their growth environment. Although the soil
microbiota is known to play a key role in the resulting plant-soil feedbacks, the proximal …

To the Editor—Rapid advances in DNA-sequencing and bioinformatics technologies in the
past two decades have substantially improved understanding of the microbial world. This …

The present scenario of agricultural sector is dependent hugely on the use of chemical-
based fertilizers and pesticides that impact the nutritional quality, health status, and …

Microorganisms drive several processes needed for robust plant growth and health.
Harnessing microbial functions is thus key to productive and sustainable food production …

The plant microbiomes play important role in plant growth promotion and soil fertility for
sustainable agriculture. Plant and soil are valuable natural resource harbouring hotspots of …

Plant roots communicate with microbes in a sophisticated manner through chemical
communication within the rhizosphere, thereby leading to biofilm formation of beneficial …
