The abundant fraction of soil microbiomes regulates the rhizosphere function in crop wild progenitors
The rhizosphere influence on the soil microbiome and function of crop wild progenitors remains virtually unknown, despite its relevance to develop microbiome-oriented tools in sustainable agriculture...

Our work reveals the microbial biogeography associated with crop wild progenitors, the 1st step towards microbial rewilding initiatives

Great collaborative work with many international partners @ruben-milla.bsky.social @manudelbaq.bsky.social @prof-braj-singh.bsky.social & many others

A hidden global soil core 🧬

Across 10 crop wild progenitors, we found a small but abundant soil core microbiome
