Comparative metagenomics of wild and cultivated Fragaria chiloensis reveals major rhizosphere microbiome shifts linked to stress adaptation by Carlos Farkas, Matías Guerra, Adan Andreu Heredia, Jean Franco Castro

“…In this study high throughput metagenomic sequencing was employed to examine the rhizosphere microbial communities of wild and cultivated plants were examined to explore how domestication has shaped microbial structure and function. This enabled binning and functional annotations indicating that wild rhizospheres were dominated by Frankia and Bradyrhizobium, whereas cultivated samples exhibited broader genus‐level diversity yet preserving a core ecological function through functional redundancy. …”
