Microbial taxonomical composition in spruce phyllosphere, but not community functional structure, varies by geographical location

Previous studies indicate that the plant phenotypic traits eventually shape its microbiota due to the community assembly based on the functional types. If so, the distance-related variations of microbial communities are mostly only in taxonomical composition due to the different seeds pool, and ther...
