TL;DR: An early effect of the plant genotype was observed on the rhizosphere bacterial communities, while few significant differences were detected at the plant structural phenotypic level, and at a functional level, the different Medicago truncatula genotypes could be distinguished by their different nutritional strategies.

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of plant genetics and root exudates on root microbiome recruitment are reviewed and methodological advances in data integration approaches that can help us to better understand and optimise the crop-microbiome interaction for a more sustainable agriculture.

TL;DR: It is suggested that micro-environmental conditions occurring within thick Phormidium biofilms strongly shape the associated bacterial communities and local environmental conditions seem to have more impact on BCs than dispersal capacities of bacteria.

TL;DR: In this article , the authors analyzed the bacterial and fungal microbial communities of 16 rice genotypes differing in their root strigolactone exudation and found that structural differences in the exuded striglactones affected different sets of microbes, and that orobanchol was linked to the relative abundance of Burkholderia, Caballeronia, Paraburkholderia and Acidobacteria.

TL;DR: A growing body of evidence suggests that the host can play a crucial role in transmission, and at least one virus, Cauliflower mosaic virus, exploits the host's cellular pathways to form specialized intracellular structures that optimize virus uptake by the vector and hence transmission.
