Project description:Metagenome data from soil samples were collected at 0 to 10cm deep from 2 avocado orchards in Channybearup, Western Australia, in 2024. Amplicon sequence variant (ASV) tables were constructed based on the DADA2 pipeline with default parameters.
Project description:In general, the endosphere isolate EC18 showed more numbers of genes significantly altered in the presence of root exudates than the soil isolate SB8 . Some of the altered genes in the two strains showed overlap. Some of these genes were previously reported to be involved in microbe-plant interactions, such as organic substance metabolism, oxidation reduction, transmembrane transportation and a subset with putative or unknown function. It was also found some genes showed opposite trend among the two strains.
