Open AccessSeeds of native alpine plants host unique microbial communities embedded in cross-kingdom networks
The plant microbiota is crucial for plant health and growth. Recently, vertical transmission of a beneficial core microbiota was identified for crop seeds, but for native plants, complementary mechanisms are a...
