Rhizosphere soil metagenome of healthy and diseased small yellow ginger (Zingiber officinale) roots
This project involves shotgun metagenomic sequencing of rhizosphere soil samples collected from the root zone of small yellow ginger (Zingiber officinale). Both healthy plants and plants affected by an important food-borne disease (caused by an opportunistic pathogen) are included. The goal is to compare microbial community composition and identify potential disease-associated pathogens.
