After a century of incremental research, technological advances, coupled with a need for sustainable crop yield increases, have reinvigorated the study of beneficial plant-microbe interactions with attention focused on how microbiomes alter plant phenotypes. We review recent advances in plant microbiome research, and describe potential applications for increasing crop productivity. The phylogenetic diversity of plant microbiomes is increasingly well characterized, and their functional diversity is becoming more accessible. Large culture collections are available for controlled experimentation, with more to come. Genetic resources are being brought to bear on questions of microbiome function. We expect that microbial amendments of varying complexities will expose rules governing beneficial plant-microbe interactions contributing to plant growth promotion and disease resistance, enabling more sustainable agriculture.
经过一个世纪的渐进式研究，技术进步，再加上对可持续提高作物产量的需求，重新激发了对有益植物-微生物相互作用的研究，重点关注微生物群落如何改变植物表型。我们回顾了植物微生物群落研究的最新进展，并描述了提高作物生产力的潜在应用。植物微生物群落的系统发育多样性越来越得到很好的表征，其功能多样性也越来越容易获得。大型培养物保藏中心可用于对照实验，且会有更多。遗传资源正被用于微生物群落功能的研究。我们预计，不同复杂程度的微生物改良剂将揭示有助于促进植物生长和抗病的有益植物-微生物相互作用的规律，从而实现更可持续的农业。
