- Intervention effect Acemannan and sodium accumulated in the leaf gel of Aloe barbadensis in response to soil salinity.
- Intervention effect The composition and structure of rhizosphere and root microbial communities differed significantly under salinity.
- Intervention effect Under salinity the prokaryotic community in the roots shifted pronouncedly towards functionally relevant membership and abundance of monoderms.
- Association Changes in acemannan and Na concentrations in the leaf gel significantly co-varied with changes in the prokaryotic rhizosphere soil community and the root fungal community.
