Article Synopsis
- Endophytic bacteria are essential for plant growth and adaptability, and understanding their composition in relation to plant variety and growing location is vital for microbiome management.
- The study focused on analyzing the endophytic bacteriome in roots and stems of four maize genotypes across two semi-arid regions in Pernambuco, Brazil, revealing that while root bacteria were mainly influenced by the cultivation site, plant genotype had minimal impact.
- Metabarcoding revealed important differences in bacterial community diversity based on plant organ and established a complex co-occurrence network, indicating that the primary genus, Leifsonia, plays varying ecological roles depending on its location within the plant.

Green manure decomposition and nutrient recycling improve soil quality and productivity of different crops, but information on irrigated fruit orchards in the Brazilian semi-arid region is still scarce. Decomposition and nitrogen, phosphate, and potassium release from the cut biomass of three green manure legumes (sunn hemp, pigeon pea and jack bean) placed in litterbags, and spontaneous vegetation grown for 90 days in the rows of a passion fruit orchard were followed for 150 days. Biomasses decreased exponentially, reaching 12 (sunn hemp) to 25% (jack beans and spontaneous vegetation) after 150 days.
