Plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB) are a source of nutrient supply, stimulate plant
growth, and even act in the biocontrol of phytopathogens. However, these phenotypic traits …

In Mexico, maize landraces are usually cultivated in milpa polyculture agroecosystems,
which are maintained with ancestral practices, ie with very low external inputs such as …

The rhizosphere influence on the soil microbiome and function of crop wild progenitors
(CWPs) remains virtually unknown, despite its relevance to develop microbiome‐oriented …

The rhizosphere plays a critical role in crop growth and fitness, particularly under moisture-
