Defining composition and function of the rhizosphere microbiota of barley genotypes exposed to growth-limiting nitrogen supplies

HIGHLIGHTS

SUMMARY

For instance, members of the microbiota populating the rhizosphere, the interface between roots and soil, can provide their plant host with access to mineral nutrients and protection against abiotic and biotic stresses. Soil microbes can contribute to the release of nitrogen from soil organic matter (SOM) for plant uptake. Elucidating the relationships between rhizosphere microbiota composition and nitrogen availability for plant uptake can be a key toward sustainable crop production. In turn, the processes of domestication and breeding selection, which progressively differentiated wild ancestors from modern, "elite" cultivated varieties, modulated the plant`s capacity . . .
