The aboveground parts of terrestrial plants are colonized by a variety of microbes that
collectively constitute the phyllosphere microbiota. Decades of pioneering work using …

Virtually all examined plant species harbour fungal endophytes which asymptomatically
infect or colonize living plant tissues, including leaves, branches, stems and roots …

Microorganisms are associated with all plants, recently leading to the hologenome concept.
We reviewed the assembly processes of plant microbiota and analyzed its structure during …

All plants are inhabited internally by diverse microbial communities comprising bacterial,
