Setaria endosphere microbiota
We surveyed and dissected the bacterial assemblages of surface-sterilized roots and panicles of wild S. pumila and S. viridis collected from 19 different sampling locations by 16S rRNA gene-based Illumina sequencing to gain understanding of the factors shaping the microbiota associated with each of these plant tissues, particularly of disseminative organs (ripe panicles harboring mature seeds).
