The plant microbiome refers to the complex community of microorganisms — bacteria, fungi, viruses, and other microbes — that colonize plant surfaces and internal tissues, forming dynamic relationships with their host. These microbial communities play critical roles in plant health, influencing nutrient acquisition, stress tolerance, and disease resistance. Understanding and manipulating the plant microbiome offers promising avenues for improving crop productivity and resilience without relying solely on chemical inputs.
