Revealing Functional Traits of Insect Pest Suppressive Rhizobacterial Strains Through Comparative Genomics
ABSTRACT Root inoculation with rhizobacteria is an emerging strategy to enhance plant resistance to aphid herbivory, yet the microbial functional traits underpinning these responses remain poorly characterised. Here, we present a comparative genomic analysis of five rhizobacteria ( Acidovorax radicis N35, Bacillus subt...
