Drought is one of the main abiotic stresses that cause crop yield loss. Improving under drought stress a major goal breeding, as it critical to food security. The mechanism plant resistance has been well studied, and diverse genes have identified in recent years, but transferring this knowledge from laboratory field production remains significant challenge. Recently, some new strategies become research frontiers owing their advantages low cost, convenience, strong operability, and/or environmental friendliness. Exogenous growth regulator (PGR) treatment microbe-based biotechnology used effectively improve tolerance preserve stress. However, our understanding mechanisms by which PGRs regulate plant-microbiome interactions still incomplete. In review, we summarize these two reported studies, focusing on exogenous treatments resistance. Finally, future challenges directions breeding are discussed.

Plant microbiomes are essential to host health and productivity but the ecological processes that govern crop microbiome assembly not fully known. Here we examined bacterial communities across 684 samples from soils (rhizosphere bulk soil) multiple compartment niches (rhizoplane, root endosphere, phylloplane, leaf endosphere) in maize (Zea mays)-wheat (Triticum aestivum)/barley (Hordeum vulgare) rotation system under different fertilization practices at two contrasting sites. Our results demonstrate along soil-plant continuum is shaped predominantly by niche species rather than site or practice. From epiphytes endophytes, selection pressure sequentially increased diversity network complexity consequently reduced, with strongest effect endosphere. Source tracking indicates mainly derived gradually enriched filtered plant niches. Moreover, were dominated a few dominant taxa (c. 0.5% of phylotypes), bacilli identified as important biomarker for wheat barley Methylobacteriaceae maize. work provides comprehensive empirical evidence on selection, potential sources enrichment assembly, has implications future management manipulation sustainable agriculture.

Citrus is a globally important, perennial fruit crop whose rhizosphere microbiome thought to play an important role in promoting citrus growth and health. Here, we report comprehensive analysis of the structural functional composition microbiome. We use both amplicon deep shotgun metagenomic sequencing bulk soil samples collected across distinct biogeographical regions from six continents. Predominant taxa include Proteobacteria, Actinobacteria, Acidobacteria Bacteroidetes. The core comprises Pseudomonas, Agrobacterium, Cupriavidus, Bradyrhizobium, Rhizobium, Mesorhizobium, Burkholderia, Cellvibrio, Sphingomonas, Variovorax Paraburkholderia, some which are potential plant beneficial microbes. also identify over-represented microbial traits mediating plant-microbe microbe-microbe interactions, nutrition acquisition promotion rhizosphere. results provide valuable information guide isolation culturing and, potentially, harness power improve production

In natural environments, plants are exposed to diverse microbiota that they interact with in complex ways. While plant–pathogen interactions have been intensely studied understand defense mechanisms plants, many microbes and microbial communities can substantial beneficial effects on their plant host. Such include improved acquisition of nutrients, accelerated growth, resilience against pathogens, resistance abiotic stress conditions such as heat, drought, salinity. However, the bacterial strains or consortia host often cultivar species specific, posing an obstacle general application. Remarkably, signals trigger immune responses molecularly highly similar identical pathogenic microbes. Thus, it is unclear what determines outcome a particular microbe–host interaction which factors enable distinguish beneficials from pathogens. To unravel network genetic, microbial, metabolic interactions, including signaling events mediating comprehensive quantitative systems biology approaches will be needed.

Significance The root microbiome composition is largely determined by the soil inoculum, with a distinct contribution from host. molecular mechanisms which host influences its rhizobiome are only beginning to be discovered. Using hydroponics-based synthetic community approach, we probe how root-exuded specialized metabolites sculpt microbiome. We uncover role for coumarins in structuring rhizobiome, particularly limiting growth of Pseudomonas strain, propose mechanism action involving reactive oxygen species. Our findings support possibility that form part plant’s adaptive response iron deficiency goes beyond mobilization modulate and highlight avenues toward engineering rhizosphere plant health.

Phylloplane were co-shaped by growth seasonal environmental factors, air (represented plants) as its important source. Further, found more strongly driven deterministic processes early similar pattern was for late stage.
