Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Barley growth was not significantly affected by disturbance of the soil microbiome under regular watering.
- Intervention effect After drought stress barley plant biomass was significantly reduced, particularly in the root system.
- Intervention effect Barley plants grown in soil with disturbed microbiome were significantly more affected by drought.
- Intervention effect Barley plants grown in soil with disturbed microbiome did not recover two weeks after re-watering.
- Observation These effects were accompanied by changes in the composition of endophytic fungal and bacterial communities.
- Observation In plants grown in soil with disturbed microbiome, seed-borne bacterial endophytes such as Pantoea, Erwinia and unclassified Pseudomonaceae were found.
- Observation In plants grown in soil with disturbed microbiome, fungal genera normally associated with pathogenesis, such as Gibberella and Gaeumannomyces, were observed.
- Recommendation The authors recommend considering the composition of the indigenous soil microbiota in future management strategies to make plants more resistant to abiotic stress such as drought.
