Bacteria in the A, rhizosphere and B, leaf epiphyte microbiomes of table beet from samples collected in New York in 2021 and 2022. The heat trees depict community composition of taxa detected in at least 90% of samples for each sample type. Node size and color indicate the percentage of total reads and the total number of amplicon sequence variants (ASVs) assigned to each node. Stars indicate taxa with higher abundance compared with bulk soil communities.

Figure 1 in Zhou et al.

(a) Weight of O. communa larvae, (b) pupae, (c) adults and (d) developmental duration of pre-adult stages on leaves of plants originating from A. artemisiifolia populations of the different reassociation groups. The P-value of ra (reassociation) represents the significance of time since reassociation (linear contrast among the three reassociation groups). In panel d, in addition to the linear contrast, two separate contrasts are indicated above the bars: 0 vs. >0 years reassociation (P < 0.001) and 9- vs. 17-year reassociation (P > 0.1). These contrasts are not shown for a–c where deviations from the linear contrast are very small. The error bars are ± SE (the same for the following figures). For each maternal line, 9–20 replicate bioassays were included and at least 100 beetles for each reassociation group, numbers in the bars represent replicates of beetles per reassociation group."

Figure 6 in Zai et al. (2025): "Conceptual framework depicting community assembly of green foxtail phyllosphere affected by environmental factors and plant genetic variation, as well as the plant protection of dominant core taxa against plant pathogen Alternaria alternata in foxtail millet. Environmental factors including soil properties (pH, TP, TK, AP, AK, and ⁠) and climate factors (AR, AS, MAP, and MAT) and plant genetic diversity based on SNP affected the assembly of the phyllosphere microbiome from seven sites. Species sorting and dispersal limitation differently governed bacterial and fungal community assembly. Three bacterial and three yeast genera were identified as core taxa with increased correlation with plant genetic diversity compared to the whole community, which were used in dual culture assay and detached leaf assay. SynComs composed of bacterial isolates (BacSynCom), yeast isolates (YeastSynCom) and both of them (BacYeastSynCom) significantly reduced the lesion area caused by plant pathogen A. alternata. BacSynCom exhibited the strongest protective effect (smallest lesion area) than other two SynComs. Bacillus, members of SynCom, had a strong inhibitory effect via dual culture assay. Back to natural conditions to explore the potential of the wild crop ancestors’ phyllosphere microbiome in enhancing the resilience and fitness of domesticated crop counterpart."

A framework for utilizing leaf-associated microbes to achieve conservation and restoration goals | mSphere From its foundation, the field of conservation biology has been inherently multidisciplinary, bringing together diverse tools for managing biodiversity amid global anthropogenic change (1). First described by Soulé (2), the field of conservation biology operates to conserve and restore biotic communities, which can involve interdependent species that have coevolved with one another (2). Relatively little attention has been given to the potential role of microbial communities in conservation and their host interactions, despite microbes constituting the majority of biodiversity and cellular biomass on Earth (3) and providing important functional roles to hosts and ecosystems (4, 5). Plant-associated microbes are increasingly utilized in agriculture to promote plant health (6), but their use in conservation is mainly limited to applications of root associates.

🚨 New paper alert!
Led by my lab mate Jacob Heil, we share our perspective on how leaf-associated microbes can be powerful tools for conservation. 🌿🦠

Rarely have I seen such a breathtaking research station.

So, if the #Phyllosphere Meeting is thematically interesting to you, I highly recommend you have a nice stay in beautiful Okinawa and tour the OIST campus.
