Apple Flower Microbiome. 28012021 To date the microbial communities in the apple phyllosphere the apple flower microbiome associations with genetic heritage in the apple endosphere or on different fruit tissue types have been characterized. 20022020 The apple flower microbiome has been pr eviously recognized as an important 342 factor for plant health and as a potential source of biocontrol agents.
20022020 The apple flower microbiome has been pr eviously recognized as an important 342 factor for plant health and as a potential source of biocontrol agents. 32 apple flowers represent an excellent model in which to characterize how plant 33 microbiomes establish develop and interact with biological processes such as disease. 24072019 Microbial diversity suggests organic apple advantage Overall the organic and conventional apples were occupied by similar numbers of bacteria.
8 noted that different portions of an apple fruit stem-end peel wound and calyx-end surveyed at the point-of-purchase supermarket possess a distinct microbiota.
20022020 Our data demonstrate that apple flowers represent an excellent model in which to characterize how plant microbiomes establish develop and interact with biological processes such as disease progression in an experimentally tractable plant organ. Despite its importance to the host the flower microbiome is poorly understood. Of apple flowers and suggested that this information could be used as a basis for developing ecological ap-proaches to disease management. Franziska picked this research topic because she believes that the findings of this project will be essential not only for a successful future agriculture but also for saving our environment.
