Article Synopsis
- There are diverse bacterial communities in rice seeds that are passed down from parent plants to their offspring, influencing the endophyte composition.
- A study found that the richness, evenness, and diversity of these bacterial communities can change over generations due to crossbreeding, inbreeding, and environmental factors.
- Key bacterial groups like Herbaspirillum, Microbacterium, and others may form a "core microbiota," suggesting they consistently play a significant role in shaping the endophytic communities in rice seeds across different locations and generations.
