“…Furthermore, the present results showed that nano-Fe 3 O 4 addition could mitigate the stress caused by MP accumulation, improving ryegrass aboveground bacterial abundance and creating communities dominated by positive associations. The phenomenon may be linked with the accumulation of the beneficial phyllosphere microbiome, including N-fixing bacteria and pathogen-resistant microbes, in improving plant performance . Exogenous disturbances such as MP pollutants lead to changes in the soil C:N ratio, as indicated by the SEM (Figure ), which are necessary resource limitations for microbes.…”

“…Previous work indicated site-specific, consistently re-occurring patterns between years ( Redford and Fierer, 2009 ; Knief et al, 2010 ; Müller et al, 2016 ). However, the phyllosphere is a less explored reservoir for extended host functions by microbes such as disease resistance ( Zhan et al, 2022 ).…”

Phyllosphere microbiota represents a substantial but hardly explored reservoir for disease resistance mechanisms. The goal of our study was to understand the link between grapevine cultivars susceptibility to Plasmopara viticola, one of the most devastating leaf pathogens in viticulture, and the phyllosphere microbiota. Therefore, we analyzed a 16S rRNA gene library for the dominant phyllosphere bacterial phyla Alphaproteobacteria of seven Vitis genotypes at different developmental stages, i.e., flowering and harvesting, via amplicon sequencing. Young leaves had significantly higher Alphaproteobacterial richness and diversity without significant host-specificity. In contrast, the microbial communities of mature leaves were structurally distinct in accordance with P. viticola resistance levels. This statistically significant link between mature bacterial phyllosphere communities and resistant phenotypes was corroborated by beta diversity metrics and network analysis. Beyond direct host-driven effects via the provision of microhabitats, we found evidence that plants recruit for specific bacterial taxa that were likely playing a fundamental role in mediating microbe-microbe interactions and structuring clusters within mature communities. Our results on grape-microbiota interaction provide insights for targeted biocontrol and breeding strategies.

“…The mutualistic part of the microbiome potentially ensures key functions for holobiont fitness, by promoting the nutrition and health of the plant (Lemanceau et al ., 2017) and improving its ability to withstand the negative effect of parasites, including pathogens (Veresoglou & Rillig, 2012; Pérez‐de‐Luque et al ., 2017; Bass et al ., 2019). Plant microbiomes thus significantly influence the growth of host plants at the individual and population level (Tedersoo et al ., 2020; Zhan et al ., 2022), with consequences for plant community composition and structure (Bennett & Klironomos, 2019; Kandlikar et al ., 2019; Tedersoo et al ., 2020). In this review, we focus particularly on soil organisms.…”

SummaryWe discuss which plant species are likely to become winners, that is achieve the highest global abundance, in changing landscapes, and whether plant‐associated microbes play a determining role. Reduction and fragmentation of natural habitats in historic landscapes have led to the emergence of patchy, hybrid landscapes, and novel landscapes where anthropogenic ecosystems prevail. In patchy landscapes, species with broad niches are favoured. Plasticity in the degree of association with symbiotic microbes may contribute to broader plant niches and optimization of symbiosis costs and benefits, by downregulating symbiosis when it is unnecessary and upregulating it when it is beneficial. Plasticity can also be expressed as the switch from one type of mutualism to another, for example from nutritive to defensive mutualism with increasing soil fertility and the associated increase in parasite load. Upon dispersal, wide mutualistic partner receptivity is another facet of symbiont plasticity that becomes beneficial, because plants are not limited by the availability of specialist partners when arriving at new locations. Thus, under conditions of global change, symbiont plasticity allows plants to optimize the activity of mutualistic relationships, potentially allowing them to become winners by maximizing geographic occupancy and local abundance.
