Identifying causes and consequences of rhizosphere microbiome heritability.

Abstract excerpt

Host genotype affects microbiome composition in many plants, but the mechanisms and implications of this phenomenon are understudied. New work in PLOS Biology illustrates how host genotype leads to differential gene expression and fitness in bacteria of the barley rhizosphere.
