Co-occurrence networks of microorganisms in an ASV-level association in bacterial and fungal communities of different irrigated samples.

Zuliang Lei et al. found that both the #Rhizosheath and #Bicrobes in rhizosheath can offer the potential to improve the resistance of #Rice to #Drought by exploring the #MicrobialCommunity in rhizosheath of rice under different drought stress.
