Fascinating research into microbiome’s role in crop growing

This article by Jill Langlois published on SMITHSONIANMAG.COM on 18 February 2020 looks at the work done by researchers at Brazil’s Genomics for Climate Change Research Center (GCCRC). They have discovered that inoculating corn with microbes which facilitate sugarcane growth increases growth rate and drought resistance. This may provide a sustainable and clean technology for farmers in the future.
