- Association The seed microbiome of Acacia longifolia was less diverse than the nodule microbiome.
- Association The seed microbiome of Acacia longifolia had more assigned functions.
- Association The nodule microbiome of Acacia longifolia showed a broader diversity than the seed microbiome.
- Association The nodule microbiome of Acacia longifolia had more specific assigned functions.
- Association Seed microbiota are associated with germination and seed-to-seedling transition of Acacia longifolia.
- Association Nodulation is associated with development and the seedling-to-sapling switch of Acacia longifolia.
- Association Microbial partners of Acacia longifolia differ between dune and forest habitats.
- Mechanism Dune microbial communities show functional plasticity that may help Acacia longifolia cope with nutrient-limiting conditions.
