Abstract
The microbiome in the rhizosphere–the region surrounding plant roots–plays a key role in plant growth and health, enhancing nutrient availability and protecting plants from biotic and abiotic stresses. To assess bacterial diversity in the tomato rhizosphere, we performed two contrasting approaches: culture-dependent and -independent. In the culture-dependent approach, two culture media (Reasoner’s 2A agar and soil extract agar) were supplemented...
