A synthetic microbial community derived from the roots of Kalidium gracile enhances its salt tolerance by modulating gene transcription and reshaping the rhizosphere soil microbiota.

Soil salinization and alkalinization are severe environmental problems in the desert-oasis transition zone of the Hexi Corridor, China. Rhizosphere microbial communities are key regulators of plant adaptation to saline-alkali environments. However, the functional microbial resources and ecological mechanisms underlying...
