Abiotic Stresses Shift Belowground <italic toggle="yes">Populus</italic>-Associated Bacteria Toward a Core Stress Microbiome
ABSTRACT Adverse growth conditions can lead to decreased plant growth, productivity, and survival, resulting in poor yields or failure of crops and biofeedstocks. In some cases, the microbial community associated with plants has been shown to alleviate plant stress and increase plant growth under su...
