Genetic mechanism of interaction between maize and phyllospheric microbiome
Aims To understand the interaction between maize and its colonized microbiome,the genetic mechanism of interaction between maize and phyllospheric microbiome was explored.Methods Four modes of interactions between microorganisms,including mutualistic symbiosis,antagonism,aggression,and altruism,were identified by using mathematical models.Based on 230 phyllospheric microbiome datasets of maize,network mapping was applied to characterize the interaction between maize and phyllospheric microbiome.Important findings Sixty-seven hub microbes were identified in the microbial interaction network,405 significant Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms in maize were screened through network mapping,and finally 23 hub genes were located,and it was found that they played an important role in promoting plant growth,resisting pathogenic bacteria infection and tolerating abiotic stresses.
