Trichoderma-amended biofertilizer stimulates soil resident Aspergillus population for joint plant growth promotion

The main objectives of this study were (1) to evaluate whether the enhanced yield after BF application was principally due to physicochemical changes or biological factors; (2) to reveal the extent to which improved plant performance was due to PGPF-induced changes in the resident bacterial versus fungal community; and (3) to decipher which components of the soil microbiome were potentially responsible or microbes are the key taxa induced by particular soil practices and confirm their real functions though verification test.
