Distinct Strategies for Engineering Bioenergy Traits in Sorghum Drive Divergent Functional Shifts in the Rhizosphere Microbiome

Engineering bioenergy crops for enhanced biomass digestibility and high-value co-products is a promising approach to sustainable biofuel production. However, the impact of these engineered crops on the belowground microbiome remains poorly understood. In this study, we characterized the composition and functional respo...

Rethinking the soil core microbiome.

'core microbiome' should be reserved for microbial components explicitly demonstrated to be conserved across defined spatial, temporal, and environmental dimensions and linked to conserved ecological functions, while taxa selected for explanatory value are better described as 'explanatory subsets of taxa'.
