Integrative plant biology 🌾 🧪 at the University of Kansas!
I'm thrilled to share our newest publication in @natmicrobiol.nature.com, led by Drs. @botanichole.bsky.social, Valéria Custódio, and David Gopaulchan: Precipitation legacy effects on #SoilMicrobiota facilitate adaptive drought responses in plants. 🌾 🧪 (thread)

Precipitation legacy effects on soil microbiota facilitate adaptive drought responses in plants - Nature Microbiology
Metagenomes from prairie soils in Kansas, USA, show how historical exposure to water stress impacts soil microorganisms and subsequently drought responses in plants.

"Root and shoot microbiomes are very distinct" is one of the most consistent patterns we see. But this timely article makes a well-supported argument that aboveground and belowground microbiomes of a single plant are definitely not independent! bsapubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...
