Genomics Studies of Rhizobacteria: Insights Gained from Genomics and Metagenomics on the Diversity and Functional Roles of Rhizobacteria
Rhizobacteria occupy the chemically and physically dynamic interface between roots and soil, where bacterial traits can influence nutrient acquisition, root development, disease outcomes and stress responses. Genome sequencing and community metagenomics have transformed this field by moving inference beyond cultivation...
