The study reveals a low-diversity microbial community in lettuce seeds, dominated by Pseudomonadota and Actinomycetota.
Taxonomic analysis showed that Pantoea and Rhodococcus are prevalent genera, indicating potential roles in plant growth promotion.
Utilizing high-throughput sequencing, the research provides insights into the bacterial endophytic microbiome's structure and function.
The findings suggest endophytic bacteria could serve as novel biocontrol agents for crops consumed raw, enhancing food quality.
