Discussion

Analysis reveals diverse diazotrophs enhance nitrogen use efficiency in wheat, suggesting strategies for saline-alkali ecosystems.

Wheat diazotroph communities significantly enhance nitrogen use efficiency and promote growth under saline conditions.
The study identified an average of 60,265 high-quality sequences per sample from the wheat root-soil interface.
High-throughput sequencing of the nifH gene provided extensive data on diazotroph community composition and dynamics.
The findings may drive innovative microbiome-based strategies for improving wheat resilience in water-scarce regions.

Zhao et al. (2025) studied this question.
