Fig. 7From: Microbiota-mediated nitrogen fixation and microhabitat homeostasis in aerial root-mucilageThe model of aerial root-mucilage-microbiota system. The friendly relationship between friend fungi and diazotrophic microbiota in the aerial root-mucilage microhabitat. The friend fungi have a broad spectrum of resistance to environmental and pathogenic microbes rather than functional bacteria. The aerial root-mucilage may screen and resist microbes of environmentBack to article page
