Rhizo-microbiome of Ocimum sanctum
The data was collected in 2024 for the study of rhizo-microbiome of Rama Tulsi using whole metagenome shotgun approach. The idea is to study the microbial taxonomy and their functional role of microbiome in not only the growth and development of the plant but also the modulation of medically important secondary metabolite biosynthesis in plant. In addition, the target was to screen microbes that can actually produce plant secondary metabolites.
