Rhizosphere Raw sequence reads of ectomycorrhizal mushroom Astraeus asiaticus symbiosis with Shorea robusta

The symbioses of ectomycorrhizal mushroom and seed-bearing plants have shown to host a rich diversity of microbiota that interact with their hosts. Here, we collected soil samples using standard protocols to study bacterial communities associated with ectomycorrhizal mushroom Astraeus asiaticus symbiosis with Shorea robusta rhizosphere compared to bacterial communities of non-ectomycorrhizal (bulk) soil by using MinION oxford nanopore sequencing of 16S rRNA amplicons. The present work analyzed ectomycorrhizal symbiosis presents a diverse microbiome, which likely influence the functioning of the plant-fungus interactions.
