THE RHIZOSPHERE MICROBIOME PLAYS A ROLE IN THE RESISTANCE TO SOIL-BORNE PATHOGENS AND NUTRIENT UPTAKE OF STRAWBERRY CULTIVARS UNDER FIELD CONDITIONS

Abstract Microbial-root associations are important to help plants cope with abiotic and biotic stressors.Managing these interactions offers an opportunity for improving the efficiency and sustainability of agricultural production.By characterizing the bacterial and archaeal community (via 16S rRNA sequencing) associated with bulk and rhizosphere so

Black morel, a widely prized culinary delicacy, was once an uncultivable soil-saprotrophic ascomycete mushroom that can now be cultivated routinely in farmland soils.It acquires carbon nutrients from an aboveground nutritional supplementation, while it remains unknown how the morel mycelium together with associated microbiota in the substratum meta
