Exploring the Influence of Ecological Niches and Hologenome Dynamics on the Growth of <i>Encephalartos villosus</i> in Scarp Forests
Information on how bacteria in plants and soil, along with extracellular enzymes, affect nutrient cycling in <i>Encephalartos villosus</i> growing in phosphorus deficient and acidic scarp forests is lacking. Bacteria in coralloid roots, rhizosphere, and non-rhizosphere soils were isolate...
