| Abstract/Contents: | "Plant-associated microbial communities, commonly referred to as the microbiome, are complex parts of ecosystems, and are intertwined with many biological processes that directly or indirectly impact their plant hosts. The prospect of manipulating the microbiome to reduce agronomic inputs is a growing area of scientific research1. For example, researchers found that soil microbiomes were responsible for decreasing the incidence of crown and root rot of sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L. cv. Alligator), caused by the fungus Rhizoctonia solani Kühn, and that this control was transferable when the suppressive soil was incorporated into sterilized growing media2. This transferability shows suppression of R. solani in these soils being driven by microbiota. Additional research with R. solani isolates causing brown patch of turf illustrated a strong association with an Enterobacter endosymbiont, with removal of the bacterium from R. solani eliminating fungal virulence3. Research on plant microbiomes has great potential, however, we need to gain a better understanding of the driving factors behind microbiome recruitment before successful manipulation of the microbiome can be achieved. In turfgrass settings it appears seasonality plays a significant role in microbiome biomass4 and taxonomy5. With the increasing availability of next-generation sequencing technologies, characterization of the total plant microbiome at a high resolution is becoming more accessible. This project was designed to utilize these next-generation sequencing technologies to determine the influence of resident seed and soil microbiota on the developing creeping bentgrass microbiome." |
