Maize root-associated microbes likely under adaptive selection by the host to enhance phenotypic performance

M. A. Meier, G. Xu, M. G. Lopez-Guerrero, G. Li, C. Smith, B. Sigmon, J. R. Herr, J. Alfano, Y. Ge, J. C. Schnable, J. Yang

This study identifies plant genetic loci associated with rhizobiome composition in maize and shows host selection influences microbial abundance under different nitrogen conditions.
