Crop root microbiome in the Argentinean Pampas. root metagenome strain:Microbiome | breed:Wheat, Soybean

Here we present the first integrated comprehensive analyses of soybean and wheat root-associated and rhizospheric soil microbiomes from agricultural production fields distributed across an extensive geographic area. We analyzed crop microbiomes of more than 100 samples from 11 different locations using deep 16s rRNA gene amplicon sequencing and massive bacterial isolation (1,931 isolates). The goal of this project was to generate a deep understanding of the microbial species that naturally interact with commercial crops under field conditions and to evaluate how do they change under different field conditions and which are the environmental factors that modulate their assemblages.
