Genetic architecture of heritable leaf microbes.

Abstract excerpt

Host-associated microbiomes are shaped by both their environment and host genetics, and often impact host performance. The scale of host genetic variation important to microbes is largely unknown yet fundamental to the community assembly of host-associated microbiomes, with implications for the eco-evolutionary dynamics of microbes and hosts. Using Ipomoea hederacea, ivyleaf morning glory, we generated matrilines...
