Horticultural plants play various and critical roles for humans by providing fruits, vegetables,
materials for beverages, and herbal medicines and by acting as ornamentals. They have …

Background Diverse assemblages of microbes colonize plant roots and collectively function
as a microbiome. Earlier work has characterized the root microbiomes of numerous plant …

Over the last 470 Ma, plant evolution has seen major evolutionary transitions, such as the
