Characterization of the Root-Associated Microbiome Provides Insights into Endemism of Thymus Species Growing in the Kazdagi National Park
In this study, we characterized the bacterial and fungal microbiomes in bulk and rhizosphere soil of an endemic and a non-endemic Thymus species from Kazdagi National Park, Turkiye, Thymus pulvinatus and Thymus longicaulis subsp. chaubardii, respectively, by 16S rRNA gene and ITS amplicon sequencing.
