Deciphering the core seed endo-bacteriome of the highland barley in Tibet plateau.

ABSTRACT: Highland barley (Hordeum vulgare var. nudum (L.) Hook.f., qingke) has unique physical and chemical properties and good potential for industrial applications. As the only crop that can be grown at high altitudes of 4200-4500 m, qingke is well adapted to extreme habitats at high altitudes. In this study, we analysed the seed bacterial community of 58 genotypes of qingke grown in different regions of Tibet, including qingke landraces, modern cultivars, and winter barley varieties, and characterised endophytic bacterial communities in seeds from different sources and the core endo-bacteriome of qingke. This study aim to provide a reference for the application of seed endophytes as biological inoculants for sustainable agricultural production and for considering microbe-plant inte
