Taxonomic diversity of bacteria associated with the roots of modern, recent and ancient wheat cultivars
2001-05-01
Abstract excerpt
Breeding programs for crop plants are designed to improve agronomic characteristics such as yield, fertilizer use efficiency and disease resistance. These programs do not typically consider interactions between plants and soil microflora. This study assessed the bacterial communities associated with roots of various spring wheat (Triticum spp.) cultivars of related lineage. Bacteria (n=ca. 1900) were isolated from...
