Other claims from this paper (13)
- Intervention effect Inoculation with apple-derived Sphingomonas strains did not enhance growth (height, girth, biomass) of M9 rootstocks.
- Intervention effect Inoculation did not increase the relative abundance of Sphingomonas in any compartment.
- Intervention effect Inoculation significantly shifted microbial alpha diversity, particularly in root and rhizosphere communities.
- Intervention effect Inoculation had no significant effect on beta diversity.
- Intervention effect Inoculation had no significant effect on the relative abundance of taxa belowground.
- Intervention effect Root inoculation significantly altered fungal community composition in leaf scar tissues.
- Intervention effect Root inoculation reduced the relative abundance of Gnomoniopsis.
- Intervention effect Root inoculation reduced the relative abundance of Phomopsis.
- Intervention effect Root inoculation reduced the relative abundance of Ilyonectria robusta.
- Intervention effect Root inoculation reduced the relative abundance of Neofabraea actinidiae.
- Intervention effect Root inoculation reduced the relative abundance of Perenniporia fraxinea.
- Observation Leaf scar tissues showed marked differences between younger and older tissues in aboveground microbiota.
- Observation Inoculant persistence was decoupled from microbiome restructuring.
