Other claims from this paper (3)
- Association Rhizosphere microbiome compositions were distinct for halophytes at high salt concentrations compared with halophytes at low salt concentrations or non-halophytes.
- Association Salinity level is associated with rhizosphere microbiome assembly of plants; the authors call it a critical factor.
- Recommendation Detecting marker taxa across high-halophytes may help select bacteria that improve salt tolerance of non-halophytic plants (author hypothesis).
