Does soil history decline in influencing the structure of bacterial communities of Brassica napus host plants across different growth stages?

The study investigates how soil history affects bacterial community structure in Brassica napus across growth stages, finding that soil history remains influential in bulk soil and rhizosphere but not roots.

The effect of wheat genotype on its microbiome is more evident in roots than rhizosphere and is strongly influenced by time

This study shows that wheat genotype affects root microbiome more than rhizosphere or soil, and this effect varies with time and plant compartment.

Metatranscriptomic response of the wheat holobiont to decreasing soil water content

The paper examines how wheat and its associated microorganisms respond to decreasing soil water content through metatranscriptomic analysis of roots and rhizosphere samples under different precipitation treatments.

Soil chemistry and soil history significantly structure oomycete communities in Brassicaceae crop rotations

This study shows that soil history and chemistry significantly shape oomycete communities in Brassicaceae crop rotations, with soil history having a stronger impact than crop host.

What's past is past, mostly: Brassicaceae host plants mask the feedback from the previous year's soil history on bacterial communities, except when the Brassicaceae hosts experience drought

The study shows Brassicaceae host plants primarily shape bacterial communities, masking soil history effects, except under drought conditions when soil history becomes significant.
