Abstract excerpt
Understanding how host genotype influences phyllosphere microbiome assembly and functional potential is crucial for enhancing crop health in commercial organic production systems. We characterized the diversity, composition, ecological assembly processes, core taxa, and predicted functions of the spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.) phyllosphere across eight commercial cultivars grown under organic management at two...
