Functional Signatures of the Epiphytic Prokaryotic Microbiome of Agaves and Cacti

Functional Signatures of the Epiphytic Prokaryotic Microbiome of Agaves and Cacti

Microbial symbionts account for survival, development, fitness and evolution of eukaryotic hosts. These microorganisms together with their host form a biological unit known as holobiont. Recent studies have revealed that the holobiont of agaves and cacti comprises a diverse and structured microbiome...
