Abstract:Climate change poses great challenges to the survival of plants. Plant endophytes play important roles in improving plant adaptability. However, our knowledge of the effects of climate change on endophytic community structures is limited. Relying on a field experimental platform simulating climate warming, precipitation increases, and their combination in an alpine grassland, the root endophytic bacterial community structures and assembly processes of three coexisting plant species (Elymus nutans, Kobresia hum… Show more
