6 articles

Microbial networks describe the complex, interconnected communities of bacteria, fungi, and other microorganisms that inhabit the rhizosphere and phyllosphere surrounding plants. Understanding these networks is critical for plant science because the collective interactions among microbes — including competition, mutualism, and nutrient cycling — directly influence plant health, growth, and stress resilience. Mapping these networks helps researchers harness beneficial microbial consortia for sustainable agriculture and disease suppression.
