plant metagenome Targeted loci
The objective of the present study was to identify the composition of the bacteria and fungi closely associated with apples and blackcurrants collected in Lithuania and Czech Republic. The identification and quantification of particular fruit and berry microflora deepened knowledge about the structure of plant-associated microbial and fungal communities and revealed the biogeographic distribution of micro- and mycobiomes on apple and blackcurrant, as well as provided important information on the impact of environmental factors on the distribution of microbial population.
