Back to the roots: deciphering the taxonomic and functional diversity of the root microbiome of wild and modern tomato in the Ecuadorian Andes

Abstract:

Ancient societies first attempted to domesticate wild plants for food production, which gave rise to present-day agriculture. Currently, more than a third of agricultural production is lost due to abiotic or biotic stress and future increases in crop yields should be achieved with fewer input of fertilizers and pesticides. These challenges have increased awareness of the importance of the plant root microbiome.
